How Often Should You Clean Your Home's Exterior?

Florida's year-round humidity allows mold, algae, mildew, pollen, and dirt to accumulate faster than in many other parts of the country. A regular maintenance schedule helps preserve curb appeal and reduce the buildup of contaminants.

Recommended Cleaning Schedule:

• Roof: Every 2–3 years, or sooner if black streaks develop.
• House Wash: Every 12–18 months.
• Driveways & Sidewalks: Every 6–12 months.
• Pool Decks & Lanais: Every 6–12 months.
• Pavers: Annually, with resealing every 3–5 years as needed.
• Windows: Every 3–6 months, depending on location and exposure.

Why Routine Maintenance Matters:

Regular cleaning can:

• Help reduce slippery algae buildup
• Improve curb appeal
• Preserve the appearance of exterior surfaces
• Reduce the need for more intensive cleaning later
• Help protect your home's long-term value
