Complete Exterior Surface Cleaning
At Driftless Softwash & Pressure Wash, we know that curb appeal doesn’t stop at your siding. Your driveways, patios, fences, and landscaping walls frame your home. Over time, these surfaces collect dirt, moss, and algae, making your property look aged and neglected.
We offer specialized cleaning solutions for every hard surface on your property. Whether it’s delicate wood or durable concrete, we have the right equipment to clean it safely.
Concrete Cleaning: Driveways & Sidewalks
Your driveway is the first thing people see when they pull up to your home. It’s also a magnet for oil stains, tire marks, rust, and organic growth.
We don’t just spray your concrete with a wand (which often leaves uneven “tiger stripes”). We use professional-grade surface cleaners—large, disc-shaped machines that provide a uniform, deep clean.
What we clean: Driveways, sidewalks, garage floors, and patios.
The Process: We apply a pre-treatment to loosen grime, pressure wash the surface using a surface cleaner, and apply a post-treatment “brightener” to pop the concrete’s natural white color and kill any remaining algae spores.
Deck Cleaning & Restoration
A dirty deck isn’t just ugly; it’s dangerous. Algae and mold build-up can make wood and composite surfaces incredibly slippery when wet.
We use a gentle Soft Wash approach for decks. High pressure can splinter wood (“furring”) or strip the protective coating off composite materials like Trex. Our specialized cleaning solution kills the organic growth at the root, lifting the grey oxidation from wood and removing the green grime from vinyl/composite, restoring it to a safe, beautiful condition.
Fence Washing
Vinyl Fences: These often turn green with algae, especially on the north-facing side. We soft wash these to restore them to a brilliant white without damaging the plastic.
Wood Fences: Over time, UV rays and dirt turn wood fences a dull grey. Our cleaning process removes the dead wood fibers and gray oxidation, bringing back the natural wood tone—perfect if you plan to stain or seal it afterward.
Retaining Wall & Hardscape Cleaning
Retaining walls are often the focal point of a landscape, yet they are frequently overlooked during cleaning. Whether they are made of limestone, block, or decorative stone, they are prone to black streaks and heavy moss growth.
We carefully clean retaining walls to remove years of weathering. This simple service creates a high-contrast “pop” against your green lawn, making your landscaping look brand new again.
Bundle Your Services & Save
The best time to clean your driveway or deck is while we are already there washing your house. Bundling services is efficient and ensures your entire property looks pristine at once.
