House pressure washing is the process of cleaning your home’s exterior surfaces to remove the dirt, mold, mildew, algae, and grime that build up over time. It’s one of the most effective ways to maintain the outside of your home and keep surfaces in good condition.
But not all house washing is the same. There’s a difference between high-pressure cleaning and soft washing, and knowing when to use each one matters.
House pressure washing is the process of cleaning your home’s exterior surfaces to remove the dirt, mold, mildew, algae, and grime that build up over time. It’s one of the most effective ways to maintain the outside of your home and keep surfaces in good condition.
But not all house washing is the same. There’s a difference between high-pressure cleaning and soft washing, and knowing when to use each one matters.
Renting a pressure washer and doing it yourself can seem like a way to save money, but the margin for error is narrow. Too much pressure on the wrong surface leads to cracked siding, damaged paint, and water intrusion. Using the wrong cleaning products can stain or discolor materials. And working at height with a machine that has recoil creates a safety issue.
Professional house washing removes the guesswork. The crew knows what PSI to use on each surface, which cleaning agents work for which materials, and how to protect the areas around your home during the process.
Getting your home’s exterior washed on a regular basis does more than make it look clean. There are practical reasons to keep up with it, and most of them save you money in the long run.
Safe, Effective, Professional results every time
We keep the process straightforward and handle everything from start to finish.
Before any cleaning starts, we look at the siding material, the condition of the surfaces, and the type of buildup present. We note any areas of concern like cracked siding, loose trim, or older paint that needs a careful approach.
We apply a cleaning solution to the siding that’s designed to break down mold, mildew, algae, and dirt. The solution sits on the surface for a set dwell time so it can do its job before any rinsing starts.
Once the solution has had time to work, we rinse everything at low pressure. This removes the buildup along with the cleaning agent, leaving the surface clean without putting stress on the material.
We walk the property after the wash to check every surface and make sure nothing was missed. If a spot needs a second pass, we handle it on the spot. We don’t leave until the job meets our standard and yours.
Every home is different, and the siding material on your house determines how it gets cleaned. We adjust our methods based on what we’re working with.
Safe, Effective, Professional results every time
We’ve built our house washing services around doing the job right for Richmond homeowners. Every home we clean gets the same level of attention and care.
Richmond homeowners deal with exterior buildup that comes with living in a humid climate. Summers bring heat and moisture that feed mold and algae growth on siding. Spring covers everything in pollen. Fall leaves stain surfaces, and winter runoff leaves dark streaks along gutters and trim.

Highly impressed with the professionalism! They cleaned our wooden deck and perimeter fence, removing years of grime without any wood damage. It looks freshly stained again. Very reliable and easy to communicate with.
Jacobson’s did an incredible job on our vinyl siding. The green mold and dirt are completely gone, and the house literally sparkles. Fast service and very honest pricing. I won’t go anywhere else for exterior cleaning.
Our driveway had terrible oil stains and dark patches. After one visit from the team, the concrete looks brand new. They were punctual, professional, and did exactly what they promised. Great local service!
For most Richmond homes, once a year is a good schedule. Homes surrounded by trees, in shaded areas, or with north-facing walls that hold moisture may benefit from washing twice a year. Spring and fall are the most common times homeowners schedule the service.
Yes. Soft washing was developed specifically for surfaces that can’t handle high pressure. It uses a low-pressure spray with a cleaning solution that does the work instead of relying on water force. Vinyl, wood, stucco, fiber cement, and painted siding are all safe to clean with this method.
Most homes take between two and four hours, depending on the size of the house, the number of stories, and the amount of buildup on the surfaces. Larger homes or homes with heavy mold and algae growth may take longer.
You don’t have to be, but we do ask that outdoor furniture, decorations, and items near the house be moved or accessible before we arrive. If you won’t be home, we can walk you through the plan beforehand and follow up with photos of the completed work.
The outside of your home doesn’t have to stay covered in dirt, mold, and buildup. Jacobson’s Power Washing gives Richmond homeowners a straightforward way to get their home’s exterior cleaned the right way, with methods that protect the surfaces and deliver results that last.
