This Orlando home had two things going on that we see all the time - algae streaking down the stucco walls and actual plants growing out of the gutters. Not just debris. Plants. That tells you those gutters hadn't been touched in a while.
The stucco exterior had dark green and gray streaking running down the walls - classic algae and mildew buildup that Florida's humidity loves to encourage. We used a soft wash approach on the house, which means low pressure combined with a cleaning solution that actually kills the organic growth at the source. High pressure on stucco can cause damage, so we don't do it that way.
The gutters were hand cleaned and all the debris was bagged and hauled off. That's important because a lot of crews will just flush gutters with water and let the mess fall into your landscaping or onto the ground below. We bag it out so you're not left with a new mess to deal with.
The difference in the stucco color is hard to miss. The walls went from dingy and streaked to a clean, consistent cream tone across the entire side of the home. Clean gutters sitting flush and bright white at the roofline - the whole exterior just looks sharp again.
If your home has that same dull, streaked look or your gutters are overflowing every time it rains, it's worth getting it looked at. Between the house washing and the gutter work, this is one of the most practical combinations of services we offer.
