Safely Remove Algae and Grime with Soft Wash House Washing

Owning a home in Eastern Tennessee is a dream, but the local climate can be a nightmare for your siding. Between the humid summer stretches and the heavy spring pollen, it doesn’t take long for a layer of green algae or dark mold to take hold. Many homeowners make the mistake of grabbing a high-pressure wand to blast the grime away, but that aggressive approach often leads to expensive damage. High pressure can crack vinyl siding, strip paint, or force water behind your home’s exterior "envelope," leading to hidden wood rot and mold growth inside your walls.

At Skinner Cleaning LLC, we believe there is a much better way to care for your investment. We utilize a professional soft wash system that relies on science rather than brute force. Instead of a high-pressure stream, we apply a specialized, eco-friendly cleaning solution at a pressure no stronger than a garden hose. This solution is designed to penetrate the porous surfaces of your siding and kill organic growth at the root. By neutralizing the spores, we ensure that the algae doesn’t just look gone—it actually stays away for a significantly longer period than a standard pressure wash could ever provide.

Our process is safe for all types of residential exteriors, including vinyl, hardie plank, stucco, and dryvit. Because the pressure is low, we don't have to worry about damaging delicate window seals or stripping away the oxidation that naturally occurs on older siding. We take the time to pre-wet your landscaping and rinse everything thoroughly afterward, ensuring your plants and grass remain healthy while your house gets a facelift. It’s a comprehensive approach that prioritizes the long-term health of your property over a quick fix.

The visual transformation is often startling. After a single visit, that dull, dingy grey or green tint disappears, revealing the vibrant color your home had the day it was built. Curb appeal is about more than just vanity; it’s about maintaining the value of your property. Whether you are preparing to put your house on the market or you simply want to be the pride of the neighborhood, a professional soft wash is the most cost-effective way to hit the reset button on your home's appearance.

We take great pride in serving our neighbors across the region with a level of care that "big-box" cleaning companies often skip. We don't just show up and spray; we inspect the perimeter, identify problem areas, and ensure that every nook and cranny—from the soffits down to the foundation—is treated with precision. When we pack up our gear, we want you to look at your home and feel a sense of relief and pride, knowing the job was done safely, effectively, and with local Tennessee expertise.
