Q: Why do you use soft-washing instead of high pressure on Spanish tiles?
Historical stucco and delicate Spanish tile roofing, common throughout Santa Barbara's Riviera and downtown districts, can crack or chip under high-pressure water. We keep full pressure for concrete and brick, and use specialized, eco-friendly solutions applied at low pressure everywhere else to protect that historic character.
Q: How do you protect my landscaping during the cleaning?
The mature gardens common to Santa Barbara's older properties matter to us. We rely on biodegradable, pet-friendly cleaning agents and pre-saturate all nearby plants with fresh water, so even decades-old landscaping stays protected throughout the wash.
Q: Is an annual exterior wash necessary for my Santa Barbara property?
Yes, particularly for homes with Spanish tile or historic stucco. An annual wash halts the growth of damaging mold from the coastal moisture here before it can etch into tile grout or historic plaster finishes.
