Spring Cleaning Pressure Washing Birmingham 2020

Well, its spring time again and YOU know what that means!!! It’s time to make the outside of your house as pretty as the inside. Actually, every season requires homeowners to do some outside maintenance, but doing so for the warmer months of the year will produce the most noticeable results. Fortunately, we’ve put together an outdoor cleaning checklist with everything you need to do this spring in the Birmingham area.

Let’s start from the top and work our way down. First is the roof, have you checked for black streaks? They usually form on the north facing side of the roof due to lack of sunlight. It’s actually a breeding ground for a certain algae that’s feeding on your granules. Take a look at our website for before and after pics www.xtremecleanz.com.

Next is the gutters. It’s always good to clean gutters out at least once a year. If not they can become clogged and push water back into your house causing a lot of damage. Trust me when I tell you it’s worth the 1-200 dollars to get these cleaned.

Third is windows. Who doesn’t like a crystal clean window where you can’t tell if there is glass in front of you? This action won’t prevent any damage but man it sure does help the curb appeal.

Fourth would be your eaves or soffits. Make sure these areas are free of cobwebs and wasp/bee nest. These pest can do minor damage to your paint and siding id left unattended.

Fifth is your siding whether it be vinyl, hardy, brick, or metal. Mostly it like the roof will be more effected in places that don’t get much sunlight. I would advise a soft wash on any siding other than brick. Check out our website for before and after pics www.xtremecleanz.com

Sixth is a deck if you have one. These usually get a good buildup of dirt on them during the winter months. While I don’t recommend pressure washing wood sometimes you have to use a little to get inside the small cracks to remove the dirt. Just be cautious when doing this.

Last is the driveway. This area is the time to bring out the big guns or PRESSURE. There are several methods and equipment people use but they should be done every 2-5 years depending on runoff from yards. Check out our website for before and after pics. www.xtremecleanz.com.

Hopefully this helped with your checklist this spring for your Birmingham area home. Please be safe will doing some of these projects and if you don’t feel comfortable call a professional. Make sure they are fully insured and have been in business for a reasonable amount of time.
