Your home fights a quiet battle all year: salt air off the Jersey Shore, humidity, pollen, storm debris, and exhaust from busy roads. Over time, that shows up as green streaks, dark patches, and a dull film on siding, gutters, trim, and even the roof.
CamoVets is the best professional house washing service to clear that away, restore curb appeal, and help your exterior materials last longer—without blasting them with harsh high pressure.
Why Soft Washing Is the Right Way to Wash a House
For most homes in Ocean and Monmouth County, the safest and most effective method is soft washing.
Soft washing uses:
- Low-pressure water (closer to a garden hose than a pressure washer)
- Water-based cleaning solutions that break down:
- Algae and mildew
- Black and green staining
- Dirt, dust, and spider webs
Instead of “scraping” the surface with high pressure, soft washing treats the organic growth so it releases from the siding and trim. That means:
- No etched siding
- No blown-out caulking or water forced behind panels
- Longer-lasting results than a quick high-pressure rinse
We routinely soft wash homes in towns like Toms River, Brick, Barnegat, Manahawkin, Lakewood, Long Beach Island, Middletown, and Freehold, adjusting our approach for each property’s age and materials.
House Washing + Gutter Cleaning: A Full Exterior Refresh
Dirty gutters and facia can ruin the look of an otherwise clean house. During a house wash, we can also:
- Rinse and brighten gutter exteriors, targeting black “tiger stripes” and streaks
- Clean the surrounding trim, soffits, and downspout areas
- Remove cobwebs, surface grime, and light staining where gutters meet siding
(Interior gutter cleanouts are a separate service, but this page focuses on the outside—what people see from the street.)
When siding and gutters are cleaned together, the whole home looks sharper and more “finished,” especially if you’re getting ready to sell or welcome guests.
Roof Washing – The Top of the House Matters Too
Those black streaks on your roof are usually algae, not just dirt. Left alone, they:
- Make the roof look older than it is
- Hold moisture against shingles
- Can slowly shorten the life of the roof
We use soft washing for roof cleaning, never high pressure. High-pressure power washing on shingles can strip away protective granules and void manufacturer warranties; soft washing cleans the growth without grinding away the surface.
Many homeowners schedule roof washing + house washing + gutter brightening in a single visit so the whole exterior gets a reset.
What’s Included in a Typical House Washing Service
Every home is a little different, but a standard house wash usually includes:
- A walkthrough to spot problem areas (heavy growth, rust drips, shaded sides)
- Protection for sensitive areas where needed (electrical, certain plants, etc.)
- Application of a soft-wash solution to siding, trim, and gutter exteriors
- A controlled, low-pressure rinse from top down
- A final look to make sure stubborn spots get extra attention
You end up with siding that looks brighter, gutters that match, and a home that feels cared for again—without paint damage or chewed-up surfaces.
