House Washing in Saanich, BC
One local husband-and-wife team to bring your home’s exterior back to life. We soft wash siding, stucco and brick with low pressure and a surface-safe solution — lifting algae, moss and grime without ever forcing water behind the cladding. Owner-run, fully insured, right here in Saanich.
Whole-Home Wash
Never High Pressure
Liability Insured
Soft wash, always
Low pressure and the right solution lift the grime without damaging your siding.
Shade, Trees and Coastal Damp
Saanich's leafy, shaded lots and the damp coastal air keep algae, moss and mildew alive on siding, stucco and north-facing walls long after they would have dried out somewhere drier.
Homes across Saanich sit on large, tree-covered lots under Garry oaks and firs, with the coast never far away, so the north and shaded walls grow a green-black film of algae and mildew. Left alone it stains the cladding, holds moisture against the house, and drags down the whole look of the property.
What a Dirty Exterior Costs You
It is not just the look. Left on the walls, algae and moisture do real damage over time.
- Green-black algae that stains and spreads across the walls
- Moisture held against the siding, feeding rot and mould
- A tired, grimy exterior that drags down the whole home
Soft Wash, Never High Pressure
High pressure forces water behind siding and can crack stucco or strip paint, so we soft wash instead — low pressure and a surface-safe solution that lifts algae and grime and keeps killing the spores at the root. Clean walls, no damage.
Right Method for the Surface
Vinyl, aluminium, stucco, Hardie board and brick each get the right mix and pressure, so every surface is cleaned safely.
Gentle on Plants
We rinse and protect your landscaping as we go, so the beds and plants around the house come through unharmed.
Soffits, Fascia & Eaves
The same wash reaches the soffits, fascia and eaves, not just the flat walls, so the whole exterior matches.
Fully Insured, $3M
WorkSafe BC in good standing and $3 million liability coverage, so your property and our crew are covered from the moment we arrive.
Our House Washing Process
Four Steps to a Fresh Exterior
A clear, methodical approach, from setup to a final walk-around, so you know exactly what to expect.
Safe Setup & Access
We protect your plants, windows and fixtures, and set the soft-wash pressure for the surface before we start.
Apply & Dwell
We apply a surface-safe solution and let it break down the algae, moss and mildew at the root, not just on the surface.
Soft Wash & Rinse
The walls are soft washed and rinsed clean, top to bottom, so nothing streaks and nothing is left to regrow.
Complete Cleanup
We rinse down the landscaping, tidy up, and walk the property with you before we go.
Complete Exterior Care Across Saanich
Whatever your home is clad in, there is a safe, low-pressure method that brings it back without damage.
Vinyl & Aluminium Siding
Soft washed to lift the green-black algae film without forcing water behind the panels.

Brick & Masonry
Algae, moss and grime lifted from brick and stone without blasting out the mortar.
Soffits, Fascia & Eaves
The overhangs, fascia boards and eaves washed down so the whole exterior matches.
Algae, Moss & Mildew Removal
The green-black film and moss cleared from every wall, treated at the root.
Pre-Sale Exterior Refresh
A full exterior wash before you list, so the house shows at its best. It can look like a totally new home.
Roof Cleaning
Gentle soft washing and moss removal, backed by a two-year moss-free guarantee. See roof cleaning.

Driveways, patios and walkways cleaned with the right pressure per surface. See pressure washing.
Need more than the walls?
We also handle gutter cleaning, window cleaning and roof cleaning across Saanich — many homeowners do the whole exterior in one visit.

The Proof
The Big Home Under the Trees
Saanich’s large, tree-covered lots keep the north and shaded walls damp, so even well-kept homes grow a green-black film within a few winters. A soft wash lifts it off without touching the finish, and the whole exterior looks fresh again — which shows especially well before a sale.

House Washing, Answered

Soft washing uses low pressure and a surface-safe solution instead of high pressure. It lifts algae and moss without forcing water behind the siding or cracking stucco — clean walls, no damage.
No. High pressure forces water behind cladding and can strip paint or crack stucco, so we soft wash the walls instead. High pressure is only for hard surfaces like concrete.
If we miss a spot or you're not happy with the result, we come back and put it right at no extra cost — a specific promise rather than a vague one.
The solution treats the algae, moss and mildew at the root, not just on the surface, so the walls stay clean far longer than a plain rinse.
Most homes here benefit from a soft wash every year or two, more often for shaded or north-facing walls under heavy tree cover where algae builds up fast.
Yes, and many people do a full exterior in one visit — roof, gutters, windows and a house wash — which shows especially well before a sale.
