House Washing
Tailored To Your Home
A Squeegee Boys house wash includes a soft wash and low pressure rinse of everything from the outside edge of the gutters down to the base of the house. It also includes bargeboards, eaves, downpipes, weatherboards / cladding, windows and doors including framework, porches and balustrades attached to the house. We’ll even do your letter box.
Additionally, we can cover any other exterior surfaces such as roofs, fences, decks, balustrades, outdoor furniture, pergolas, driveways and paths.
What’s a Soft Wash?
A Soft wash is the process of applying a salt based cleaning solution to a home with eco friendly surfactants (soap) and water to deeply clean and leave your home shining.
It’s much gentler and faster than scrubbing or water blasting and much faster. The equipment required to do this properly requires investment and knowhow which is why we recommend using a professional for a fair price who has a good knowledge of this process and is highly recommended… Like Squeegee Boys!

Here’s a few great reasons to wash your home…
Washing a house is an important maintenance task that can help preserve its appearance, prevent damage, and maintain its value. Here are some reasons to wash your house:
Improve curb appeal: Regularly washing your house can help it look its best and improve its curb appeal. A clean, well-maintained exterior can make a great first impression on visitors, potential buyers, or renters.
Prevent damage: Dirt, grime, and other debris can accumulate on the exterior of a house over time, which can cause damage if left untreated. Pressure washing or soft washing can remove these contaminants and prevent them from causing long-term damage to the house's siding, paint, or other materials.
Maintain property value: A well-maintained exterior can help maintain the value of your property. If you plan to sell your home in the future, a clean exterior can increase its curb appeal and attract potential buyers.
Health reasons: Mould, mildew, and other fungi can grow on the exterior of a house, which can create health hazards. Regular washing can remove these contaminants and improve the air quality around your home.
Cost-effective: Regular washing can be a cost-effective way to maintain your home's appearance and prevent damage. It can be much cheaper than having to replace damaged siding or other materials.
Overall, washing a house is an important task that can help maintain its appearance, prevent damage, and maintain its value.
