Pressure Washing in Fayetteville, AR
Fayetteville homes work harder than most. Between the mature tree canopy dropping pollen and debris, humid summers feeding algae on shaded siding, and the constant churn of the University of Arkansas calendar, exteriors here take a beating year-round.

We match the method to the surface: soft washing for siding and roofs, hot-water surface cleaning for concrete. No shortcuts, no damage, no surprises on the invoice.

Gentle on historic homes, tough on grime
The older homes on Mount Sequoyah and around Wilson Park have original wood siding, aged paint, and masonry that high pressure would ruin. We clean these houses with low-pressure detergent washing that lifts decades of atmospheric grime without lifting the paint.
If your home is older, we'll walk it with you first, flag any fragile spots like glazed windows or soft mortar, and adjust the plan so the house comes out clean and intact.
Porches deserve a mention too, because Fayetteville's older neighborhoods live on them. Tongue-and-groove porch ceilings, turned columns, and painted plank floors all clean up well with the gentle approach, and a bright porch changes the whole face of a historic house more than almost anything else.
Rental turnarounds and curb appeal on a deadline
Landlords with student rentals know the drill: the lease turns over in summer, and the exterior needs to look right before the next tenants and their parents show up. We handle multi-unit and single-house rental washes on a schedule that fits turn season.
For owners selling, a wash is the cheapest curb-appeal upgrade there is. A house wash and a clean driveway routinely make a bigger first impression than projects costing many times as much.
Game-day hosts get the same treatment on a tighter clock. Plenty of Fayetteville families tailgate at home during football season, and a clean driveway, porch, and patio before kickoff weekend is a quick, affordable job when you book it a week or two out.
Fighting the canopy: pollen, shade, and algae
Fayetteville's tree cover is beautiful and brutal. Spring dumps a yellow-green pollen film across siding, porches, and cars, and shaded north walls stay green most of the year without treatment. Our soft wash clears both and keeps the algae from returning quickly.
Concrete under trees collects its own mess: leaf tannin stains, sap, and mildew. Hot water and surface cleaners restore driveways and sidewalks, with every job custom-quoted free based on size and buildup.
Tannin staining is worth explaining because homeowners often assume it's permanent. When wet leaves sit on concrete through the winter, they leach brown organic dye into the surface. Heat and the right detergent will draw most of it back out, and the sooner after leaf season we get to it, the closer to full removal you'll see.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work on Fayetteville's historic homes?
Yes, carefully. Homes around Wilson Park and Mount Sequoyah get low-pressure detergent washing that's safe for old wood siding, original paint, and aged masonry.
Can you wash rental properties between tenants?
That's a regular part of our summer. We coordinate with landlords and property managers around lease turnover and can handle multiple properties in one trip.
When is the best time of year to pressure wash in Fayetteville?
Late spring, after the heavy pollen drop, is ideal. That said, we wash year-round, and algae removal is effective in any season above freezing.
How long does a typical job take?
Most house washes take two to three hours. Adding the driveway or a patio usually keeps us on site for half a day at most.
