House Washing in New Albany: Georgian Brick and White Trim
The look New Albany is known for, red brick with white painted trim, columns, shutters, and cornices, is also the hardest exterior to clean well. Brick is porous, so algae and mildew settle into the texture and the mortar joints rather than sitting on the surface. Close-range pressure etches the brick face and erodes mortar, especially on older joints. The white trim fails differently: pressure lifts and peels paint at every seam. Green or gray film on that trim is visible from the street long before anyone notices it on the brick.
So both surfaces get a low-pressure soft wash. The solution does the work, it is given time to dwell, and it is rinsed at garden-hose pressure. Trim is cleaned so the paint stays on the house, and brick is cleaned without wearing it down. Our soft washing vs pressure washing guide goes through the difference surface by surface.
Roof Cleaning in New Albany
Many New Albany homes have steep, prominent rooflines in architectural asphalt shingle. On a brick home with a dark roof, black streaking shows up clearly against the clean lines of the house. Those streaks are Gloeocapsa magma, an organism that feeds on the shingles, and they are removed with a soft wash, never pressure. Homes with slate, cedar, or metal roofs need different handling and are priced individually.
For planning, general market data puts asphalt-shingle roof cleaning at roughly $300–$500 for a single-story home and $400–$700 for a two-story, or about $0.14–$0.36 and $0.24–$0.64 per square foot respectively. These figures come from other companies' published rates and national home-services averages, not our quoted rate. Steep pitch and height push a roof toward the top of its range.
White Board Fences, Columns, and Entry Details
The white four-board fencing New Albany is known for picks up green mildew along the boards and posts, especially where it runs through shade or close to turf irrigation. Painted or vinyl fencing, porch columns, and railings are soft washed rather than pressure washed, for the same reason as the trim: pressure strips paint and scars vinyl. We clean them at the same visit as the house when you ask.

New Albany Soft Washing FAQs
Do you work in the New Albany planned community and surrounding areas?
Yes — we regularly serve properties inside the New Albany planned development as well as the broader Plain Township area. Holding an architectural-review or appearance notice? See our guide to responding to an HOA letter about your siding.
Do you have experience with higher-end or architecturally sensitive homes?
Yes. We are experienced with a wide range of siding, roofing, and hardscape materials and take care to use the appropriate methods for each.
Can you wash Georgian brick without damaging the mortar?
Yes, as long as it is soft washed. Brick and mortar are porous, so algae lives in the texture and the joints, and close-range pressure erodes both. A soft wash kills the growth with solution and dwell time, then rinses at low pressure, so the brick face and the joints stay intact.
How much does roof cleaning in New Albany cost?
General market data puts asphalt-shingle roofs at roughly $300–$500 single-story and $400–$700 two-story, about $0.14–$0.36 and $0.24–$0.64 per square foot. Those numbers come from other companies' published rates and national averages, not our quoted rate. Steep pitch and height push a roof toward the top of its range. Slate, cedar, and metal roofs are priced individually.
Do you clean white board fences and porch columns?
Yes. Painted and vinyl fencing, columns, and railings are soft washed so the paint stays put and vinyl does not scar. Mildew on fence boards is usually worst where the fence runs through shade or near irrigation. It can be done on the same visit as the house.
