Pressure Washing

Siding, stairs, decks, walkways and parking areas washed with the method each surface needs.

Moss, mildew and algae on everything that stays damp

Rain is the Pacific Northwest's busiest exterior contractor. It feeds moss on north-facing siding, mildew along the base of stucco, algae on concrete stairs and a slick green film on decks and walkways. On a managed property it shows up across dozens of surfaces at once, and a board tends to notice only when it becomes a slip hazard or a letter from a resident.

Left alone, organic growth holds moisture against materials. Wooden decks, which are porous, collect it fastest and are prone to rot over time; concrete wears and gives debris more to cling to. Regular washing is as much about keeping surfaces dry and sound as it is about how they look from the street.

Pressure for concrete, soft wash for siding

HOA Services washes siding, stairs, walkways, parking lots, curbs, garages, decks, trash enclosures, sidewalks, and the windows, doors and trim, using commercial equipment. The method depends on the material: some wood and vinyl siding calls for a soft wash, while other surfaces benefit from full pressure. Technicians decide by the surface, not by a standard setting.

The crew removes the foliage and debris it loosens, and the technician submits before and after photos with notes about anything noticed along the way, such as a rotted tread or a clogged downspout. Eyes up is the working rule, so the account executive's status email can include what the washing exposed.

Spring and fall passes on the account calendar

Spring is when the account executive's calendar tends to put pressure washing next to roof, gutter and downspout cleaning and parking lot maintenance, once the wet months have done their work. A fall pass is a common addition for areas that stay shaded, and trouble spots can be scheduled more often.

Whether it is one stained courtyard or every building in a community, the request goes in as a job ticket by email, phone or web form. Your account executive schedules it, residents can be notified in advance, and the job is invoiced by property within 5-7 business days. Tigard, Portland and Willamette Valley properties all run this way.
