House Washing Services in Michigan

Your Home Should Feel Like a Sanctuary

restore your home's exterior to the clean, comfortable, welcoming appearance it deserves

You Might Not Realize How Dirty Your Home Has Gotten.

It happens gradually. A little algae here, some mildew there, a slow creep of grime across the siding. Because it builds up over months and years, most homeowners don’t notice just how much the exterior of their home has changed — until after it’s been cleaned.

That dull, dingy look isn’t just an eyesore. It affects how your home feels. Your home is your sanctuary, and when the outside looks worn and neglected, it quietly chips away at that sense of comfort and pride every time you pull into the driveway.

The instinct for some is to rent a pressure washer or call a handyman. But high-pressure washing on siding is a gamble — it can force water behind panels, strip paint, crack trim, and cause the kind of damage that costs far more to fix than a professional cleaning ever would.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should a house be washed?

Most homes in Southeast Michigan benefit from a professional house washing once every one to two years. Homes surrounded by trees, located near water, or in areas with high humidity may develop mold and algae more quickly and could benefit from annual cleaning. Regular washing not only keeps your home looking its best but also prevents the long-term buildup that can be harder and more expensive to remove over time.

Is house washing safe for siding?

Yes — when done correctly. At Lake State Cleaning, we exclusively use a low-pressure soft wash method that is safe for all exterior siding materials, including vinyl, wood, fiber cement, stucco, and brick. Unlike high-pressure washing, our process relies on professional-grade cleaning solutions to gently lift and remove dirt, mold, and algae without any risk of forcing water behind panels, cracking trim, or stripping paint.

What is the difference between power washing and house washing?

Power washing uses high-pressure water to blast surfaces clean, which can be very effective on hard surfaces like concrete and pavers but is too aggressive for most home exteriors. House washing — or soft washing — uses low pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions to safely clean siding, trim, and other exterior surfaces. The soft wash method is recommended by most siding manufacturers and produces longer-lasting results because it treats the root cause of staining rather than just blasting the surface.

How long does house washing take?

A standard residential house washing typically takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size of the home, the number of stories, and the level of buildup on the exterior surfaces. Our team works efficiently without rushing, and we always perform a final walkthrough to make sure the results meet our quality standards before we leave.

Do you clean gutters and roofs during house washing?

House washing focuses on your home’s exterior siding, trim, soffits, and fascia. Gutter cleaning and roof cleaning are separate services, each with their own specialized process and equipment. Many of our customers choose to bundle these services together for a complete exterior refresh — just ask about our bundled service options when you request your quote.
