Living Next to a Wildlife Refuge
The refuge is a big part of what makes Ridgefield special, and it is also a big source of moisture. Wetlands, river bottoms and Gee Creek keep the air damp, and fall and winter mornings are often foggy. All of that moisture lands on siding and stays there on walls that never see direct sun.
Wetlands also mean bugs, and bugs mean spiders. Homes on the west side of town often have eaves and porch ceilings strung with webs by late summer. A house wash takes those down along with the algae.
New Construction Still Needs Care
A lot of Ridgefield homes are only a few years old, with fiber cement or vinyl siding, painted trim, board-and-batten gables and deep covered porches. New homes are not immune to algae. A shaded wall on a three-year-old house can show green streaks just as fast as an older one. Cleaning gently matters even more on a new home, because the goal is to keep the paint and caulk in factory shape for as long as possible. High pressure can scar fresh paint and loosen new caulk lines. Soft washing does not.
How We Wash a Ridgefield Home
Before the solution comes out, we wet down your landscaping, including young plantings that new homes often have. We then apply the solution to the walls, gables, soffits and fascia at low pressure. Once it has had time to dissolve the growth, we rinse everything from the top down and give the plants a second rinse.

HOA-Friendly Results
Many newer Ridgefield neighborhoods have homeowners associations that expect houses to stay clean and well kept. Green siding and stained gables are among the first things that draw a notice. A regular soft wash, often every year or two for shaded lots, keeps the outside of the house looking the way it did at move-in. Because the method is gentle, you can repeat it as often as needed without wearing down the finish.
Washing in spring clears winter growth before summer. Washing in fall removes summer dust and webs before the rains return.
