Why hire a professional to clean the exterior of your home

The benefits to having home powerwashed and windows cleaned

By Autumn J. Moricz September 6, 2024

Window cleaning and exterior power washing or scrubbing are often a tasks we dread as homeowners. In many homes the areas needing to be washed can be out of reach, requiring ladders being placed and the need for additional tools. And then there is the time it takes. I don't know about you, but when the weekend arrives I want to be busy with my family, not up on a ladder cleaning windows. 

But then there is the me that loves to look out a window WITHOUT the doggie nose prints or the cobwebs that gather up in the corners, and I love the look of clean siding.

Hiring a professional to clean the exterior of your home and the windows can be a huge timesaver. Professionals that do this type of work know how to get it, get the job done and make it look great.

I sought out a professional cleaner when I noticed mildew and grime building up on one of our exterior walls. That area of our home is shaded and does not dry out after heavy rains or even early morning dew.

The benefits of power washing/scrubbing your siding include:

  • Enhanced Curb Appeal: A deep clean can make your home look brand new.
  • Mold and Mildew Removal: High-pressure washing can eliminate these health hazards from the exterior.
  • Maintenance: Regular cleaning prevents the build-up of pollutants that can lead to costly repairs.

I liked that VIP Window did not just spray off the grime. The common approach is to powerwash, which can create more problems.  If you aren't careful you can damage the siding. VIP recommended scrubbing it instead. Scrubbing did a much better job than power washing alone. It really got into the into the grooves and crevices of your siding! This left the siding looking cleaner,  and will last longer.


 And now that the exterior is clean, I was ready to have the much neglected windows cleaned. Similar to the issues with the siding, the windows on one part of our house hold in the dampness and, when not wiped down and opened to air out can allow mildew to collect. I reached out to Zach at VIP Window Cleaning and he made the windows look new again at a 3rd of the price others quoted.
