What I do
Outdoor cleaning thatactually lasts
Soft-wash for siding and roofs, high-pressure for concrete, and the right chemistry for the stains in between. Pick one service, the whole exterior, or anything in between.
House Wash (Soft-Wash)
Low-pressure detergent wash for Hardie plank, brick, and stucco — kills the algae and mildew, never blasts the paint.
starts at $285 · per visit
Roof Soft-Wash
Black streaks gone — chemistry, not pressure. Safe for asphalt shingles and the algae spores that cause Gloeocapsa magma.
starts at $425 · per visit
Fence & Gate Wash
Cedar privacy fence going gray and green? A medium-pressure wash brings the wood color back without fuzzing the grain.
starts at $165 · per visit
Deck & Patio Wash
Wood decks, composite, paver patios, pool decks — gentle wash, neat finish, ready for the next cookout.
starts at $195 · per visit
Rust & Oil Stain Removal
Battery acid, fertilizer rust ring, motor oil drips — the stains a regular wash will not touch.

Gutter Face Brightening
Those black tiger-stripes on the front of your gutters? They come off — and a soft-wash treatment keeps them off.

Concrete Sealing
After a deep wash, a penetrating sealer keeps oil and water from soaking in — and the next clean is half the work.

How it works
Three steps,no hassle
I try to make hiring me boring in the best way — predictable, on-time, easy to explain to your spouse.
Walk the property
I come out, listen to what's bugging you, and look at every surface — sun-faded driveway, north-side mildew, gutter stripes, whatever. No high-pressure quotes, no surprises.
Quote on the spot
Flat price, written down before I leave. The number you get is the number on the invoice — no day-of upsells, no "while we’re out here" add-ons.
Wash day
I show up on the agreed morning with a 4-GPM commercial gas rig, the right tip for every surface, and the chemistry to match. Pets and kids stay inside; plants get pre-rinsed; the property looks new when I leave.
How I work
Right tool for the right surface.
Pressure does the work on concrete. Soft-wash does the work on siding and roofs. Mixing them up is how houses get damaged. Here is the difference, in plain terms.
Soft-Wash
- Pressure
- ~80–150 PSI(less than your garden hose at full blast)
- What does the cleaning
- Sodium-hypochlorite + surfactant + dwell time. Chemistry, not force.
- Right surface
- Hardie plank, brick, stucco, painted wood, asphalt-shingle roofs, screens, soffits.
- Wrong surface
- Concrete driveways. The chemistry alone will not lift years of embedded grime.
High-Pressure
- Pressure
- 3000–3500 PSI · 4 GPM(commercial gas, not the homeowner electric)
- What does the cleaning
- Surface cleaner with twin rotating jets. Even pass, no zebra stripes from a wand.
- Right surface
- Driveways, sidewalks, garage aprons, pool decks, brick and paver patios, dumpster pads.
- Wrong surface
- Roofs (voids the warranty), Hardie plank (cracks the boards), wood siding (raises the grain).
If somebody quotes you a roof clean and shows up with a regular pressure washer — send them home.

In their words
What customers say
Real customers from around Friendswood, Pearland, and the SE Houston suburbs.
My driveway looked like a different color when Pete was done. He pre-treated the oil drip from where my husband parked the truck for years and it actually came out. Polite, on time, fair price.

Got two quotes for the roof soft-wash — one guy wanted to use a regular pressure washer on my shingles. Pete walked me through why that was a bad idea and did the job right. North side is clean, no streaks, six months later still clear.

Whole house wash plus the back fence. The Hardie plank looks like it did the day we moved in, and the cedar fence isn't gray anymore. He didn't try to upsell me on anything I didn't need.

Good to know
Frequently asked
- Pressure does the work on concrete (3000–3500 PSI through a surface cleaner). Soft-wash does the work on siding and roofs — low pressure plus the right chemistry. Using high pressure on shingles or Hardie plank is how you damage a house. Using soft-wash on a driveway just gets it wet. Right tool for the right surface, every time.
- Not the way I do it. House wash is soft-wash — low pressure plus a surfactant blend. The detergent does the lifting; the rinse is gentle. The horror stories you hear (paint stripped, holes in stucco) come from using a 0-degree tip at full pressure on the wrong surface. I do not do that.
- Yes — a working hose bib on the side of the house is all I need. I bring my own hoses, my own pump, and the wash chemistry. If your water pressure is unusually low, let me know up front so I can plan accordingly.
- Houston humidity and oak pollen are tough on exteriors. Most homes look great with a yearly house wash and a driveway clean every 12–18 months. Roof soft-washing is more like every 5–7 years. North-facing surfaces grow algae fastest — that's the side that drives the schedule.
- Plants get a pre-rinse with fresh water before any chemistry goes up, and a post-rinse after. The wash mix is diluted enough that an accidental drip on a shrub is not a problem, but I treat the landscaping like it is mine. Pets and kids should stay inside while I am running detergent.
- Yes — general liability, with the certificate available if your HOA or property manager asks. Solo operator, so the person on the quote is the person on the property.
- Small-scale, yes — restaurant patios, dumpster pads, storefront sidewalks, small office buildings. For a multi-acre warehouse parking lot you want a bigger crew than just me.
