Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water (typically 1,500-4,000 PSI) to blast away grime from hard surfaces like concrete, brick, and asphalt. Soft washing uses low pressure with specialized cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces like house siding, roofs, and painted surfaces. Using high pressure on delicate surfaces causes damage — we assess each surface and choose the right method every time.

How often should I have my house exterior cleaned?
For most DFW homes, we recommend annual exterior cleaning. Homes with heavy tree coverage, north-facing walls, or properties near water may need cleaning every 6-8 months. Roof soft washing typically lasts 2-3 years between treatments. We can set up a preventive maintenance schedule tailored to your property.
Are your cleaning products safe for my landscaping, pets, and children?
Yes. Our biodegradable cleaning solutions are specifically formulated to be tough on grime, algae, mold, and mildew while being safe for your landscaping, pets, and children. We also pre-wet plants and rinse thoroughly after cleaning to ensure everything is safe.
Do you offer same-week service?
Yes, we typically have same-week service slots available. Call or text 682-399-4427 to check current availability. During peak seasons (spring and summer), booking a week or two ahead is recommended.
Are you insured?
Yes, Hultgren's Exterior Cleaning Solutions is fully insured with complete liability coverage. Your property is protected on every job, large or small.
How long does a typical cleaning job take?
A standard driveway cleaning takes 1-2 hours. A full-house soft wash takes 2-4 hours depending on size. Gutter cleaning typically takes 1-2 hours. We'll give you a time estimate with your quote.
Do I need to be home during the cleaning?
For exterior cleaning, you don't need to be home as long as we have access to the areas being cleaned and an outdoor water spigot. We do require a walk-through at completion to ensure you're satisfied with the results, which can be done in person or via photos.
What's your satisfaction guarantee?
We do a walk-through at completion of every job. If you're not thrilled with the results, we're not done — we'll address any concerns before we leave. That's our 100% satisfaction guarantee, and it's backed by our 5.0-star rating from 500+ completed jobs.
Can you clean roofs?
Yes — we use soft washing for roofs, which is the correct method. High pressure on shingles strips the protective granules and shortens roof life. Our soft wash kills algae and moss at the root, and the results typically last 2-3 years. If you have black streaks on your roof, that's Gloeocapsa magma algae — we can safely remove it.
Do you clean commercial properties?
Yes, we clean commercial properties including parking lots, garages, storefronts, and building exteriors. Contact us at 682-399-4427 for commercial pricing and scheduling.
