We are back in the beautiful Compass Pointe community in Leland, NC! There is no higher compliment than a repeat customer, and we were thrilled to return to this stunning home to perform a full exterior “reset” to wrap up Winter and start thinking about Spring. Check out this post and learn about what the home needed in terms of exterior cleaning, and how Tidewater Pro Wash was able to help.
The Challenges:
- Fascia and Soffit Growth: Like many homes in the area, the white trim, fascia, and soffits were the primary targets for organic growth. Dark streaks of algae and patches of mildew were beginning to colonize these high-visibility areas, dulling the home’s overall appearance.
- Dirty Road Curbing: First impressions start at the street. The concrete curbing along the road had accumulated a thick layer of grime, road film, and organic staining, which significantly detracted from the home’s curb appeal.
- The Outdoor Living Space: The back patio is the heart of any Leland home during the spring. However, the concrete was stained, and the outdoor furniture—the very places meant for relaxation—had accumulated a slippery layer of green algae.
The goal was a complete “reset”. The homeowner wanted the property to look brand new again, ensuring that every surface, from the street to the backyard furniture, was clean, safe, and welcoming. For high-quality house washing in Leland, they knew a professional touch was required.
Our Cleaning Process: The Professional Edge
At Tidewater Pro Wash, we don’t believe in “one size fits all” cleaning. Different materials require different levels of care to ensure they are cleaned effectively without sustaining damage. For this Compass Pointe project, we combined chemistry and precision.
1. Low-Pressure Soft Washing for the Home
To address the algae on the house siding, fascia, and soffits, we utilized our specialized soft wash system. High-pressure water can be incredibly destructive to trim and vinyl, often forcing water behind the siding where it can lead to hidden mold issues.
Instead, we applied a custom-blended, biodegradable detergent designed specifically to kill algae and mildew at the root. This solution safely breaks the bond between the organic growth and the home’s surface. After a brief dwell time, we rinsed the area with a high-volume, low-pressure stream—leaving the trim sparkling white and 100% sanitized.
2. Concrete Pressure Washing and Furniture Refresh
For the road curbing and the back patio, we transitioned to a more robust cleaning method. We first applied biodegradable detergents to the concrete surfaces to lift deep-seated stains. We then used a professional-grade pressure washer to safely remove the organic buildup and road grime, restoring the concrete to its original bright finish.
We took the same level of care with the outdoor furniture. By using a gentle application of our cleaning agents, we were able to strip away the slippery algae growth, making the patio chairs and tables ready for use again.
3. Seeing the Action
We believe in transparency and showing our neighbors exactly how we work. We’ve documented this entire transformation in a video! You can see our pressure washing in Leland in action by watching our latest YouTube project highlight below:
Final Results: A Brand New Look for Spring
The transformation of this Compass Pointe home was nothing short of spectacular. By the time we packed up our equipment, the property looked exactly as it did the day it was built.
- Restored Curb Appeal: The road curbing is now bright and clean, framing the property perfectly.
- Crisp Details: The fascia and soffits are free of dark streaks, highlighting the home’s architectural details.
- Safe and Relaxing Backyard: The back patio is no longer a slip hazard, and the furniture is clean and inviting.
The homeowner was thrilled with the results, and the home is,once again, the standout on the block. Whether you are looking for commercial pressure washing or a residential refresh, the result is the same: a beautiful, protected property.
