Both wash the whole exterior with the same low-strength cleaner and the same care around planting. The difference is the glass brush-down.
Removes organic material and general dirt from the whole exterior of your home, finished with a rinse-down of the windows.
Everything in the Soft Wash, plus a thorough brush-down of all glass windows and doors — the whole exterior spotless.
Nothing forced in behind your cladding.
High pressure drives water behind cladding and strips paint. A soft wash does the work chemically at low pressure, so the building stays sealed.
Pre-wet and protect
Garden beds and sensitive planting are wet down and covered. Windows checked closed. Power points and fittings protected.
Apply and dwell
A very low-strength exterior cleaner is applied to the cladding and left to work on the mould and algae — no scrubbing, no pressure.
Rinse and check
A gentle rinse takes it all off, overspray is spot-rinsed immediately, and we walk the property with you or send the photos.
Plaster, back to white.

House washing questions.
Q1How often should I have my house washed?
We recommend washing homes in Wellington about every 12–18 months. The region’s coastal humidity, wind and frequent rain make mould and algae more likely to develop, and properties in shady or exposed areas may need cleaning more often. Regular washing also helps protect cladding and meet manufacturer care expectations.
Q2Is house washing safe for my plants and pets?
Yes. We use a very low-strength exterior cleaner and apply it carefully. Any overspray is spot-rinsed immediately, and we ask that pets (and their bowls and toys) are kept away from the work area until surfaces are dry.
Q3How long does house washing take?
It varies with the size of the house, how much buildup there is and the method being used. On average, a typical house wash takes 2–5 hours.
Q4Do I need to be at home?
No. Our units are self-powered and our technicians are experienced with all types of properties. Just make sure your windows are closed and we’ll take care of the rest.
Q5When is the best time to wash my house?
Spring is optimal, as the house generally stays cleaner for longer afterwards. That said, if you can see mould, it is best addressed immediately.
Q6What are the advantages of washing my house?
Regular cleaning of your cladding can extend the lifespan of exterior surfaces by up to 15 years, helps meet home maintenance and warranty obligations, and creates a healthier living environment by preventing mould and mildew growth.

“My house and windows were washed last week by Aaron. He did a wonderful job and even climbed onto the roof to blast the lichen off the perspex roof of the front porch. The old house looks almost brand new. The price was not too expensive, cheaper than others, and very affordable. Many thanks.
