The term “soft-washing” is exactly what it sounds like. Using lighter pressure to safely and effectively clean the exterior of your house or business. This process uses chemicals to do the heavy lifting rather than a jet stream of high-pressure water to force the dirt off.  It is particularly effective for removing mold and other stubborn stains without the worry of damaging your home. This process also provides a more complete clean, removing mold spores hiding in the tiny cracks of your siding and not just forcibly pushing off the surface layer of mold.

Done incorrectly, pressure washing can seriously damage your home. If the pressure is too great, you can streak, crack or dent the siding or even strip off the vinyl clear coating. If the angle is incorrect, you can trap water behind the siding or cause damage the structure underneath.

Ideally, siding should be cleaned once to twice a year, particularly in shady or damp areas where mold and mildew thrive. If your siding is not shaded or damp, and it looks clean, you can probably reduce the frequency to once a year. When you begin to see green mold on your house you are greatly overdue for a cleaning. Besides being unsightly on your home, if left untreated it can pose serious health risks and permanently discolor and damage your home.

Your roof should be washed once every 3 to 5 years. A good indicator that you are overdue for cleaning is the black streaks coming down your shingles. Those streaks are a shingle-damaging black bacteria called Gloeocapsa magma and can cause serious damage if left untreated. Besides eating the lime in your shingles, slowly eating away your roof, it harbors moisture and makes a perfect home for moss to grow, further damaging your roof.

A roof cleaning will generally run anywhere from 3%-5% of the cost of a complete roof replacement.

How are we so successful?

We are in a unique situation. We are a family owned business with low overhead and use only industrial-grade commercial equipment, and have access to the very best pressure washing chemicals and informational resources in the industry.  

In many cases, we offer better and more personalized service than the larger commercialized companies but we differ in one very important way; We are a local, family and veteran-owned company, that focuses on a much smaller area; Cleveland, its suburbs, and local Counties.

Simply put, we honestly care about your property like it was our own. Our results directly impact our reputation. We let our reviews speak for themselves!

Cleveland is the city where we live and the city we love and we want to bring great service to the amazing people who live here. We believe in keeping it simple and keeping you informed. All this allows us to offer you the lowest price possible for the service you are getting. Building relationships and long-term customers is no longer a think of the past with us. 

Why are some companies cheaper or more expensive than us?

All companies are not equal so comparing us to the lowest bidder or even the highest is not an accurate comparison. Would you trust just anyone to work on your most expensive investment, your home, for next to nothing? More importantly, would you trust him or her to put in the same level of care and take the same pride in it as you do?

Ask questions when a company sends you a quote. Are they properly trained and insured to protect your home or will they give you the run-around if they need to settle any damage caused to your home, roof or surrounding structure? Are they using the proper techniques to complete the work such as soft-washing easily damaged materials such as siding and shingles? Do they have professional equipment and the proper chemicals? Are they members of any certifying governing body or organization in the industry?

Does the technician on your property actually care if your property looks amazing? Ours do! We treat your property like it’s our own and take great pride in our work!

If we are being outbid by a company with a similar process, we offer price matching plus 5% off based on the quote you receive from other companies. 

Bottom line: If they beat our prices they won’t even come close to our service.

Rest assured your property is in good hands. Although HIGHLY unlikely to be used, Powergreen is insured for up to $2,000,000 against any damage with commercial general liability insurance through one of the top insurance agencies in the United States. All of our technitions are also covered by Ohio workers compensation. 

Several great reasons!

• Most importantly we are first and foremost a cleaning and restoration company. We don’t dabble in landscaping, remodeling or painting.

It also allows us to stay at the forefront of the industry with the most effective and up-to-date equipment, chemicals, methods, and training.

• You can rest assured you are in good hands with our commercial insurance.  We not only solve your problems, restore the cleanliness of your home and business we also educate you on our process along the way.

• We boast an outstanding satisfaction record with 5 star and A+ ratings throughout Google, Facebook, Angie’s List, Yelp, and Thumbtack.  

•We are contributing members of the UAMCC (the United Association of Mobile Contract Cleaners) one of the largest pressure washing and cleaning associations in the world. Our policies, procedures, and practices are governed by this large group and its immensely huge network of contractors. 

• Our reputation depends on our work. We are Veteran owner-operated and we take great pride in how your home looks when we are finished. Since we don’t mass advertise or spend thousands monthly on costly campaigns, we can lower our prices, saving you money!

Beware of the scams!

Be cautious and be sure to ask a lot of questions about equipment, insurance, chemicals, and methods used. If your contractor can’t answer the simplest of questions such as the brand of cleaning chemical or sealer they are using this is a warning sign. If they are using equipment you might find at home improvment stores or do not carry the needed insurance they are putting your home at risk. (A good indicator of a company like this is one using hard pressure to remove dirt and grime from your home rather than a soft-wash).

Trust in us and let us make a believer out of you!
