House Washing in Seattle, gentle on the finish

Seattle's 1920s–40s Craftsman and Tudor houses were built to last, and a gentle soft wash keeps their siding and trim from fading under moss and green film.

Why Seattle

What to know about house washing in Seattle

In Ballard, Wallingford, Green Lake, Wedgwood and Ravenna, houses sit close together on tight lots with limited access. Walls are often wood, brick or stucco and deserve a careful low-pressure wash, not a blast. Because Seattle is at the edge of our range, we focus on north-end addresses and jobs of a decent size, and we say plainly if a job doesn't fit.

Craftsman, Tudor and box-style homes from the 1920s–40s on tight city lots. About 40 minutes from our Lake Stevens shop.

Timing

When to schedule house washing in Seattle

Seattle walls typically want washing every year or two given the damp, spring through early fall. Street parking and tight setbacks affect how we plan, so share access notes when you request a quote. If the roof is mossy too, ask about doing both in one visit.
