House & Building Washing

House and Building Soft Washing Services in Everett, Seattle, Bellevue and surrounding areas

Soft washing is a revolutionary exterior cleaning method.  Soft washing cleaning uses low water pressure in combination with biodegradable chemicals that safely break down dirt and build up.  In comparison to pressure washing, soft washing results can last up to 6 times longer.

Soft washing a house exterior makes more sense

Generally, when a pressure washer is used a micro layer of spores remains after the cleaning.  Consequently, these spores will grow back rapidly given the moist environment of the Puget Sound area.  It is important to realize that soft washing kills these spores on contact.  The spores and micro layer will not regenerate rapidly, providing a longer lasting clean looking result.

Why use soft wash for house and building washing?

Soft washing exterior surfaces makes sense around the Seattle, Everett, and Bellevue areas.  Our soft wash method is guaranteed to remove dirt, algae, moss, mildew, bird droppings, spider webs, and bacteria to make your surfaces shine!  Wood siding, vinyl siding, concrete siding, concrete walls, fences, decks all can be cleaned safely.  Overall, soft washing uses 6 times less water than pressure washing.

  • Prevents damage
  • Protects health of your family
  • Increases property value
  • Treats the cause - killing spores at the root
  • Helps homes sell fast
  • Soft wash solution sterilizes and penetrates the surface to solve the root of the problem

It is all about working smarter rather than harder when it comes to house washing:

Most major insurers and the Concrete Roof and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturing Association recommend soft washing.

Why should you never pressure wash your exterior siding?

Window seals, gutter seals, painted surfaces, and wood siding are easily damaged with high pressure.  For example, many property owners and even professionals think that it is okay to pressure wash the exterior of gutters.  You may even think that this is perfectly fine, as gutters are metal right? What most people fail to realize is gutters are fragile at their seams.  The end caps, inside corners, outside corners, and downspout openings all have a gutter sealant to make them watertight.  High pressure tends to immediately blow these seals out.  This is the primary reason gutters will drip water at the seams.  This is just one reason why it is not recommended to use high pressure to clean house or building exteriors.

FAQs

What is included in house washing service?

We offer two different packages.  Premium and basic.  Each package includes the cleaning of surfaces from ground to gutter.  Siding, fascia, gutter exteriors, trim, and other surfaces in these areas are cleaned with our soft wash solution.  The soft wash solution is applied with low pressure and we rinse off using water with low pressure.  In some cases we will use a pressure washer on a low setting to clean brick/masonry or unpainted concrete surfaces as needed.  The premium house washing package includes detailed exterior window cleaning. The basic house washing package includes the rinsing of the windows (will not be 100% crystal clear). 

Why do I need to have house/building washing services?

The exterior surfaces are among the first thing that people see.  However, many people usually overlook the importance of having a clean exterior.  Windows regularly cleaned can make a big difference.  

How much does house washing cost?

The price of the house washing service depends on a number of factors including: The number of stories, amount of build-up, type of siding,  the square footage of the home, and accessibility.  Our estimating software will provide you an instant estimate based on the above factors.  If you have vinyl siding then our online estimating forms/system will provide you an estimate.  If you have a different type of siding then we will provide you a quote through our office.  Call us at 425-290-8635 during normal business hours. Our email sales@chinookservices.com for your free no obligation estimate. 

How often should I have house washing?

Environmental conditions and your preference will determine how often you should have your homes exterior cleaned.  Most customers have their house exteriors cleaned every 2-3 years as part of regular maintenance. 

Do I have to be home for the service?

You don’t have to be present for your house wash service unless there are pets that need to be put up or areas that you need to provide access to.  Or if we need to clean the inside windows, as we will need access into the home.  That said, if you would prefer to be there while we clean your home that’s just fine with us too.  Know that unlike other companies our workers are not independent contractors. Each worker is an employee of Chinook Services and is in uniform. The crews arrive in marked service vehicles and are respectful. 

Are you insured?

We carry liability insurance and workman’s compensation insurance. 

What is the water fed pole/brush system that you use to clean the windows after the siding and other surfaces?

Water Fed Window / Solar panel cleaning poles are a great way to make your cleaning quick and efficient. ... Generally, the pure water is pushed up the pole and out between the bristles. Then, the pure water flowing on the surface is agitated to remove the dirt. The pure water collects and drags the dirt off the surface.

Do you offer a warranty/guarantee? 

Yes, we provide a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Requested my deck be cleaned to get ready for... spring. There were a few items on the deck that needed to be moved and then moved back after cleaning. Corey was very accommodating. He also checked the gutters for debris and blew off up a few spots. He was a little late from a prior appointment but got everything done quickly and the deck looks great! Would highly recommend Chinook after this service.read more
