Pressure Washing in Burnham, IL
Your home's exterior takes a beating from weather, dirt and growth. In Burnham, we wash houses, roofs, driveways, decks, fences and patios, and clean storefronts, sidewalks and parking areas for businesses. Our service area covers Burnham (ZIP codes 60409, 60419 and 60633) and reaches nearby communities including Calumet City, Dolton and South Holland.
Exterior surfaces in Illinois get both kinds of weather. Humid summers feed mildew and green algae on shaded siding, decks and fences, spring brings a coat of pollen, and winters add road salt and freeze-thaw cycles that wear concrete. Most homes here do well with an annual wash in spring or early summer and a check of decks and concrete before winter.

Services
Pressure Washing Services in Burnham, IL
House and roof soft washing, driveways, decks, fences, sealing and commercial cleaning. Here are some of the services we provide in Burnham.
Commercial Pressure Washing for EIFS (Synthetic Stucco)
Soft wash. EIFS looks like stucco but is a foam insulation board with a thin acrylic finish coat.
Rust Stain Removal for Stucco
Soft wash. Traditional stucco is porous and holds moisture, which is why it streaks green and black in humid and shaded spots.
Pool Deck Cleaning for Travertine
Low-pressure wash. Travertine is a natural limestone popular around pools.
Oil Stain Removal
Lifting oil, grease and fluid stains from driveways, garage floors and parking areas.
HOA & Apartment Pressure Washing
Building washing, sidewalks, breezeways, pools and amenity areas for HOAs, apartments and condos.
Patio Cleaning for Stamped Concrete
Moderate-pressure wash. Stamped and colored concrete is usually protected by a sealer.
Deck Cleaning for Cedar
Low-pressure wash. Cedar decks and fences turn silver-gray as the surface weathers.
Fence Cleaning for Vinyl Fencing
Soft wash. White vinyl fencing shows green algae, mildew and sprinkler stains quickly.
Soft Washing for Wood Siding
Soft wash. Painted and stained wood siding grows mildew and loses its finish faster on the shaded and weather-facing sides.
Exterior Mold & Mildew Removal for Pressure-Treated Wood
Low-pressure wash. Pressure-treated pine is the most common deck and fence wood.
Soft Washing for Brick
Low-pressure wash. Brick is tough, but the mortar joints are softer than the brick itself, and older soft-fired brick can pit.
Sidewalk & Walkway Cleaning
Walkway, front path and sidewalk cleaning that removes slippery growth, gum and grime.

FAQ
Pressure Washing Questions in Burnham
How much does pressure washing cost in Burnham?
It depends on what's being cleaned and how big it is. Typical U.S. ranges: house washing about $300-$700, roof cleaning about $400-$1,000, a two-car driveway about $150-$400 and deck cleaning about $250-$600. You get a firm price before any work starts. Call (555) 010-0000 for a free quote.
What is the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to clean hard surfaces such as concrete and brick pavers. Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution that kills mold, mildew and algae, and it's the safe way to clean siding, stucco, roofs and other delicate surfaces. We choose the method for each surface on your property.
Is pressure washing safe for my roof?
Roofs should not be pressure washed. High pressure strips the protective granules from asphalt shingles and can crack tile. Roofs are cleaned with a soft wash: a solution applied at low pressure that kills the algae and moss causing the stains, then rinsed gently.
Will the cleaning solution hurt my plants, lawn or pets?
We pre-wet plants and lawns, rinse them again afterward and keep the solution diluted to what each surface needs, which protects landscaping. Keep pets and children inside during the wash and until surfaces are rinsed and dry.
How often should I have my house washed in Burnham?
Most homes need a house wash every one to two years. Homes with a lot of shade, nearby trees or high humidity often need it every year, and homes in dry, sunny areas can go longer. Roofs typically need cleaning every three to five years, and driveways once a year.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
Not usually. We need access to an outdoor water spigot and to every side of the house, windows and doors closed, and cars moved out of the driveway. We'll confirm the details when we book, and we walk the job with you or send photos when we finish.
Can you remove oil, rust and other tough stains?
Often, yes. Oil, rust, efflorescence and hard-water spots each need a specific cleaner, not just more pressure. Fresh stains usually come out completely; old oil stains that have soaked deep into concrete can lighten a lot but may not disappear. We'll tell you what to expect before we start.
What happens if it rains on the day of my appointment?
Light rain doesn't stop most washing, but heavy rain, high wind, lightning and freezing temperatures do, and sealing and staining need dry weather. If the weather isn't right, we'll call to reschedule at no charge.
Do you clean commercial properties in Burnham?
Yes. We clean storefronts, sidewalks, parking areas, dumpster pads, restaurants and drive-thrus, fleets, and HOA and apartment buildings, and we can work early mornings, evenings or weekends to stay out of your customers' way.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes, we carry insurance, and where Illinois or your city requires a license for exterior cleaning work, the job is done under that license. You're welcome to ask for proof of insurance when you book. Our work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee.
