Professional, Eco-Friendly Exterior Washing for Vancouver Homes, Townhouses and Commercial Properties
Why Power Washing Matters in Vancouver’s Climate
The combination of heavy rainfall, evergreen tree canopy and ocean air makes exterior surfaces prone to:
Green and black algae growth on siding
Moss and lichen buildup on concrete and pavers
Slippery walkways during wet months
Dirt, soot and environmental staining
Moisture retention that accelerates wood deterioration
Routine washing helps prevent moisture-related deterioration and extends the lifespan of exterior finishes. (CMHC Home Maintenance Guidelines)
Regular power washing is necessary maintenance in Vancouver, not a cosmetic extra.
Property Types We Power Wash in Vancouver
Detached Homes in Kitsilano, Dunbar, Arbutus and East Vancouver
Homes in these neighbourhoods often have large trees, shaded yards and north-facing walls that stay damp longer. This increases moss and algae growth on siding and driveways.
Townhouses in Mount Pleasant, Burnaby Heights, Cambie and Collingwood
Shared walls and clustered building layouts trap moisture. Soft washing is ideal for exterior surfaces that require a gentle, uniform clean across strata complexes.
Multi-Unit and High-Rise Ground Areas in Downtown, Yaletown and the West End
We clean:
- Walkways and entrance pads
- Storefront facades
- Building bases
- Parkade ramps and concrete
Commercial and Strata Properties
Perfect for:
- Restaurants and patio areas
- Retail storefronts
- Office building entrances
- High-traffic hardscape surfaces
Soft Wash vs Power Wash vs Pressure Wash: What You Need to Know
Soft Wash
A low-pressure cleaning system that uses biodegradable detergents. Recommended for:
Siding
Stucco
Painted wood
Soffits and trims
James Hardie advises against using high pressure on fiber cement siding due to the risk of permanent damage, recommending gentle washing instead (James Hardie Siding Care Guide).
Power Washing
A high-pressure cleaning method used for durable surfaces such as:
Commercial-grade concrete
Grease stains
Heavily soiled hardscape
Industrial walkways and equipment pads
Pressure Washing
Pressure washing is a high-pressure, unheated water cleaning method used for strong, durable exterior materials. Best for:
Driveways
Pavers
Stone
Patios and driveways
Retaining walls
This method removes deep stains, moss, algae and embedded dirt.
What We Clean: Complete Exterior Power Washing
WashTech uses a blend of soft washing and high-pressure cleaning, depending on the surface type. Ideal for:
Driveways and concrete pads
