At Under Pressure Cleaning & Sealing Services, we offer cutting-edge biowashing services to refresh your home’s exterior. The environmentally friendly cleaning solutions we use are proven effective for removing grime, mold, mildew, and algae. All without harming your lawn, landscaping plant, or contaminating natural water sources.
What Is Biowashing?
Biowashing uses eco-friendly cleaning solutions and low-pressure sprayers to safely clean your home’s exterior. The process does more than remove dirt, mold, algae, and other unsightly materials. It also penetrates deep enough into the microscopic surface pores to inhibit regrowth.
What Surfaces Are Safe for Biowashing?
Our special biowashing process is safe for most home exteriors, as well as fences, decks, sidewalks, and retaining walls. Since we only use low-pressure sprayers, biowashing is safe for stone surfaces, brick, concrete, wood, vinyl, composite decking, and even stucco.
Is Biowashing Safe for the Environment?
The biowashing solution we use was specifically formulated to be safe for the environment. It doesn’t contain any toxic or harsh chemicals like you find in a lot of other exterior power washing solutions. It won’t harm your lawn, or landscaping plants, and won’t pollute water coy ponds or natural water sources.
Our technicians receive special training to minimize overspray and limit the release of excess solution. We use just enough biowashing solution to get the job done right, without leaving behind a big wet mess!
Is Biowashing Effective at Removing Mold and Mildew?
Biowashing is a safe and effective way to remove organic materials from your home’s exterior. Our low-pressure application easily removes mold, mildew, and algae. The solution even penetrates deep enough to kill a mold colony’s microscopic roots.
The solution also inhibits the regrowth of mold, mildew, and algae. This helps extend the amount of time before needing another biowashing.
How Often Does My Home Need Biowashing?
Most of the homes we service only need to be biowashed once a year. However, local climate is a factor. If your home receives a lot of shade, or there are a lot of natural water sources nearby, you might need to have your home biowashed more frequently.
How Long Will It Take to Biowash My Home?
Our technicians typically biowash roughly 1,000 square feet per hour. Most homes can be biowashed within a day or two depending on prep time, and the severity of staining.
If you need other surfaces biowashed, such as a deck, patio, or fence, it might take a little longer.
Can I Just Have My Home Biowashed and Nothing Else?
If there’s organic material growing on more than just your home, the wise move is to have all affected surfaces biowashed. Mold, mildew, and some forms of algae release spores into the air, which can repopulate other surfaces.
Biowashing all the affected surfaces the first time we visit your property reduces the risk of mold and mildew redeveloping on your home. It will even extend the time you need between biowashing sessions.
