Exterior Cleaning Services in North Plainfield, NJ
Pressure washing to prep for paint or freshen up a tired exterior.
Get a Free EstimateNorth Jersey's humid summers are hard on exterior surfaces — algae and mildew build up in shaded corners, pollen and tree sap streak siding, and years of exposure leave stucco and wood siding looking chalky even when the paint underneath is structurally fine. Pressure washing is often the fastest, least expensive way to make a North Plainfield exterior look cared for again, and it's also the prep step Franklin builds into every exterior paint job — paint doesn't hold onto a dirty surface the way it holds onto a clean one.
Right now, pressure washing is the exterior cleaning service Franklin offers directly.

Why Call Franklin for Pressure Washing
Built into how he preps a paint job
Franklin doesn't paint over dirt — pressure washing before paint is standard practice on every exterior job he runs.
Right pressure for the surface
Stucco, wood siding, and vinyl each take different pressure and technique — Franklin adjusts rather than blasting everything the same way.
Available on its own, no paint job required
Just want the exterior cleaned? That's a standalone job Franklin will quote separately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need pressure washing before an exterior paint job?
Almost always, yes. Paint doesn't bond well over dirt, mildew, or chalky old paint — pressure washing gives Franklin a clean surface to prep and paint over, which makes the new coat last longer.
Can pressure washing damage older siding?
It can if the pressure and technique are wrong for the material — that's why Franklin adjusts pressure and distance based on whether he's working on stucco, wood siding, or vinyl.
How often should a house exterior be pressure washed?
Every one to two years is typical in North Jersey's humid summers, more often if you're near trees that drop pollen and sap or in shaded areas prone to mildew.
Can you pressure wash without also painting?
Yes — pressure washing is offered as its own service for homeowners who just want the exterior refreshed without a full paint job.
