In the Roanoke area, most homes should be professionally washed once per year. Our humid climate, tree coverage, and seasonal pollen cause algae and mildew to grow faster than in drier regions. Annual soft washing helps protect siding and maintain curb appeal.
Yes — when done correctly. At Gunk B Gone Pro Wash, we use soft washing techniques for homes, which safely remove organic growth without damaging siding, mortar, or paint.
Pressure washing uses high PSI for hard surfaces like concrete, while soft washing uses low pressure and specialized cleaning solutions for roofs and siding. Most homes should never be cleaned with high pressure.
High pressure absolutely can. That's why we never pressure wash roofs. We use a soft wash roof cleaning system designed to safely remove black streaks, algae, and moss without voiding manufacturer warranties.
Most house washes take between 1-2 hours, depending on size, buildup, and accessibility. Larger homes or heavily soiled surfaces may take slightly longer.
Yes. Pollen buildup is extremely common in Roanoke and surrounding areas. Our cleaning solutions break down pollen residue that normal water alone cannot remove.
No — as long as we have access to water and the areas being cleaned, you do not need to be home. Many of our customers choose to have services completed while they're at work.
Results typically last 12-24 months, depending on shade, tree coverage, and weather conditions. Homes with heavy tree cover may benefit from more frequent cleanings.
Rental machines often lack proper flow and control, increasing the risk of damage. Professional equipment, proper detergents, and experience ensure better results — safely and efficiently.
