Our House Washing Services
We offer multiple cleaning methods to ensure the best results for every surface

Soft Washing
Low-pressure cleaning with specialized solutions to safely remove dirt, algae, mold, and mildew from delicate surfaces like siding and roofs.

Pressure Washing
High-pressure water to remove dirt, grime, mold, mildew, algae, and other contaminants from hard surfaces like brick and concrete.
Soft Washing Explained
Discover the power of soft washing, a more effective alternative to standard pressure washing. Our eco-friendly, biodegradable cleaning solution breaks down mold, mildew, algae, and other organic growth.
Unlike pressure washing that only removes surface stains, soft washing eliminates the microbes that cause discoloration, leading to a longer-lasting shine. The soft washing method is safe for a variety of surfaces, making it the ideal choice for your cleaning needs.

Your Questions Answered
Learn about our exterior cleaning services in the Ithaca & Finger Lakes area
Finger Lakes humidity and shaded winters make siding prone to mold, mildew, and algae — exactly what soft washing is built for. It uses low-pressure water and eco-friendly cleaning solutions to remove growth at the root instead of blasting it off, so results last 4–6 times longer than pressure washing and it's safe for vinyl, wood, pets, and landscaping.
Most homes in Tompkins and Southern Onondaga Counties do well every 1–2 years. Heavy tree cover, north-facing walls, or a spot near Cayuga Lake usually means more often. We offer maintenance plans with discounted annual service to keep you on schedule.
Most residential jobs take 2–4 hours, depending on size and buildup. Larger properties or heavy growth can take longer, and we'll give you a time estimate with your free quote.
Yes. We work with H2O Hauling LLC, a local company that delivers up to 1,000 gallons directly to your property — plenty for any residential job. Just mention it when scheduling and we'll coordinate the delivery.
Pricing depends on your home's size, stories, and buildup, so we don't post a flat number. We price competitively for a fully insured company that pays its crew fairly; we're not the cheapest option. Get an exact number with a free, no-obligation quote.
Yes. We power wash to lift dirt, algae, weeds, and stains, re-sand the joints with polymeric sand to stabilize them, then seal the surface to protect the color and extend its life. The result is a patio, walkway, or driveway that's cleaner and richer-looking. Learn more, here.

“Our second year of service from Oliver and his crew and I could not be happier. I have some abstract and very tall windows (37 ft at highest point) and the crew made everything spotless inside and outside, AND they did the entire job quickly and professionally. Highly recommend this service. I know I will be utilizing them next year! Oliver and his crew provided exceptional service during our second year of service.

“If you’re thinking about having an exterior cleaning done to your house, Paver work, Window cleaning, etc., then this Is the team you wanna look to. My Home was 13 years old and starting to show signs of aging. Six Mile came out and made it look like brand new again, and we couldn’t be happier. Great crew, on time and professional, good communication, and great follow up. Highly recommend!”

“Six Mile cleaning did an amazing job on our house. The house had loads of algae on the siding and moss growing on the roof and they got it completely clear. They also did a gutter cleaning which was long overdue. Oliver and his crew arrived on time, did a beautiful job, and completely cleaned up all the mess. I couldn't be happier!! I even thought the price was reasonable.”
