Spring cleaning season is here, which has many families putting together their to-do lists for the outside and inside of their homes. Regardless of the weather, you can always work on projects inside. But exterior cleaning and upgrades take a little more planning since the weather can play a role in the overall results.
If the outside of your home needs a good cleaning, rest assured knowing that you don’t have to pull out the rags and do it by hand. Instead, soft washing is a great way to blast away the dirt and grime, helping your home look as good as possible.
Best Time to Clean a Home
Our team at Sky Power Wash is often asked: “What is the best time of year to clean a home?” The truth is that soft washing can be done as long as the temperatures outside are above freezing. So, most people schedule exterior soft washing between March and November.
There are a few other factors you should consider to decide on the best timing for your home cleaning:
- Plants and Trees Near the House: If cleaning solutions are used in soft washing, such as products to kill mold or algae buildup, then these products can affect nearby plants. Ideally, schedule exterior cleaning services in the spring or fall when the flowers aren’t blooming.
- Seasonal Allergies: If anyone in your home suffers from seasonal allergies, then professional soft washing services can be a way to minimize pollen exposure. Schedule these services during the spring months to reduce the amount of pollen circulating in the air around your home.
- Temperature During the Season: Spring is sunny and warming up, but the weather is still cool enough that we can reduce the overall amount of water being used. A cool spring day is ideal for exterior soft washing if you are considering water conservation.
- Family Schedule and Convenience: Since soft washing can be done throughout the year, why not pick a time that is most convenient for you? For example, you can schedule these services while the kids are in school to minimize the disruptions that might happen when our crew is on-site working.
- Visible Dirt Needs to Be Cleaned: Finally, the best time for exterior cleaning is when you can see dirt and grime on the outside surfaces of the home. If you can tell that the siding and concrete needs to be washed, then it’s a good sign that you should call a professional soft washing service.
Our team at Sky Power Wash can accommodate your busy schedule, making it easy to freshen the appearance of your home during any time of the year.
