How Often Should You Wash Your House?

Quick answer: Once a year keeps most Sandhills homes clean. Shaded, north-facing, or tree-heavy properties that grow mildew faster may benefit from twice a year.

The once-a-year rule

For most homes, an annual house washing prevents mildew and algae from getting a foothold and keeps your curb appeal high.

When to wash more often

Homes under heavy tree cover, on shaded lots, or in especially humid spots grow mildew faster. If you see black or green streaks returning within months, twice a year is worth it.

Protects more than looks

Regular washing also protects your siding and paint from the organic growth that degrades them over time. We serve Southern Pines, Pinehurst, and the wider Sandhills.
