           Owning a vacation home or second home is a dream come true for many here on Whidbey Island. Summers are dry and comfortable, but winters can be freezing and wet. This drastic weather change can turn the task of maintaining your property’s exterior clean, neat, and in great shape, into a very complicated one, mainly when it stays vacant for considerable periods.

            home unattended for too long can allow bacteria, algae, mildew, and other organic stains to take control of the property. Ongoing maintenance services are necessary to ensure your home is in excellent condition when you return, and the best way to do that is by hiring professional help.

            Thinking that power washing your residence top to bottom will do the job, is a common misconception. The truth is

      &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
        
            techniques use a specialized low-pressure cleaning system to remove exterior build-up gently. This method is perfect to gently remove moss, algae, insect nests, and other build-ups immediately, providing a long-lasting, high-quality result.
           &#xD;
      &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Residential soft washing is a good fit for cleaning fragile areas of your house, such as the siding and the roof. Power washing these areas can damage the surfaces and the structure of your home. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration forbids pressure washing your roof.

  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    
          Consider hiring soft washing services for your vacation home before leaving for an extended period, when you notice moss, algae or similar build-ups, when looking to boost your home’s curb appeal or before you come back to stay on Whidbey Island.
