Seasonal House Washing Tips for North Shore Homes

Residents of the North Shore face unique environmental challenges that can impact the upkeep of their homes. Tailored house washing throughout the seasons is crucial to protect your property from the local climate conditions. Here’s how you can maintain your North Shore home with strategic house washing:

• Spring House Washing
  Spring on the North Shore brings increased pollen and natural debris, which can cling to your home’s exterior. House washing this season should focus on removing these allergens as well as any residues from the rainy season, such as mud and silt. Clearing gutters and downspouts to prepare for the coming drier months is also essential.
• Summer House Washing
  Summer, with its dry weather, can cause dust and pollutants to accumulate on your home’s surfaces. Regular house washing during these months helps remove these layers of dust and prevent permanent staining. It's also the perfect time to check for and wash away any salt deposits left from coastal breezes, protecting your paint and finishes.
• Autumn House Washing
  Before the humidity and rain increase, a thorough house washing can prepare your home’s exterior for the harsher weather. Removing leaves and debris that can trap moisture against the house is crucial to prevent mould growth. This is also a good time to clean and inspect all drainage systems.
• Winter House Washing
  Although winters are milder, North Shore homes still benefit from a winter house washing to remove salt spray and prevent the buildup of grime that can be more challenging to clean if left until spring. This proactive cleaning helps ensure that moisture and salt do not degrade your home’s exterior materials during the damp conditions typical of North Shore winters.
  
  Adjusting your house washing schedule to the specific needs of each season in the North Shore ensures that your home not only maintains its beauty but also its structural integrity against weather conditions.

Maintenance Tips

• Regular Inspection
  Conduct routine inspections of your home's exterior. Look for signs of mould, mildew, dirt, or discoloration. Catching these issues early can prevent them from becoming major problems.
• Landscaping Maintenance
  Trim trees and bushes near your home to reduce shade and moisture buildup, which can contribute to mould and mildew growth.
• Gutter Cleaning
  Keep your gutters clean and free from debris to prevent water overflow and stains on your siding.
• Address Stains Promptly
  If you notice any stains or marks on your siding, address them promptly. Delaying cleaning can make stains more difficult to remove.
• Avoid DIY Pressure Washing
  While pressure washing can be effective, it's important to hire professionals for this task. Incorrect pressure or technique can damage your siding.
• Consider a Sealant
  Some siding materials benefit from the application of a protective sealant. Consult with us to determine if this is appropriate for your home.
• Schedule Regular House Washing
  As mentioned earlier, house washing should be done every 1 to 3 years to maintain the cleanliness and longevity of your home's exterior.

By following these maintenance tips and adhering to a regular house washing schedule, you can ensure that your home's exterior remains in excellent condition and retains its curb appeal for years to come.
