Why Is The Side Of My Home Green?

The green stuff on your siding isn't just gross... it's actually airborne algae that can cause long-term damage to the surface! While it is not uncommon to see homes with an accumulation of green muck, it's important to take care of it in a timely fashion.

What Do I Do About It?

While the appearance of algae on your siding isn't great, you don't need to worry. Instead, follow these steps to get rid of it quickly and effectively:

• Assess the problem areas and the severity of the algae staining
• Research professional pressure washing companies and the processes they use
• For the safety of your siding, hire a reputable company that uses a soft wash method

Having the siding professionally cleaned with a soft wash method is the safest, most effective route to take. Using specialized cleaners will eliminate the algae growth on your siding. After the cleansers have a moment to set, the distribution of water along the siding will remove all algae safely and efficiently.

How Do I Keep It Off For Good?

Professionally pressure washing your siding on an annual basis is the best way to keep it protected from algae growth. Leaving algae on your home can cause the stains to embed themselves, and the algae will make its way back over time after an initial wash. By having the house pressure washed annually, you will be able to keep your largest investment looking great and protected from algae growth.
