Top 5 Surfaces Around Your Home That Should Be Professionally Pressure Washed Each Year
Living in DeLand, FL and throughout Volusia County means sunshine, humidity, rain, pollen, algae, and mildew are constantly working against your home’s exterior.
Over time, buildup on outdoor surfaces doesn’t just affect curb appeal — it can actually cause staining, deterioration, and long-term damage if left untreated.
Professional pressure washing helps keep your home looking great while protecting your investment.
Here are the top 5 surfaces around your home we recommend having professionally cleaned each year.

1. Driveways
Your driveway takes on a lot:
Tire marks
Dirt
Oil stains
Algae
Mold and mildew
Because driveways are used daily, buildup happens fast — especially in Florida’s climate.
Professional driveway cleaning in DeLand, FL and throughout Volusia County can instantly brighten the appearance of your home and improve curb appeal while helping prevent slippery surfaces.
A freshly cleaned driveway makes a huge difference the moment someone pulls up to your home.

2. Sidewalks & Walkways
Sidewalks often get overlooked, but they’re one of the first things guests see when approaching your home.
Over time sidewalks collect:
Dirt
Black mildew
Green algae
Surface staining
Pressure washing sidewalks and walkways improves appearance and helps reduce slipping hazards around your property.

3. Pool Decks & Patios
Florida pool decks and patios are especially prone to:
Mold
Mildew
Algae buildup
Slippery surfaces
Weather discoloration
Professional patio cleaning throughout Volusia County helps restore the appearance of your outdoor living space while making it safer for family and guests.
Whether concrete, pavers, or decorative surfaces — regular cleaning helps preserve it.

4. Fences
Wood and vinyl fences can quickly collect buildup in Florida weather.
Common issues include:
Green algae
Dirt
Black mildew staining
Weather fading
Pressure washing your fence helps restore its original look and extends the life of the material while keeping your property looking maintained and clean.

5. Home Siding & Exterior Walls
Your home exterior is constantly exposed to:
Humidity
Rain
Mold spores
Pollen
Dirt buildup
This often shows up as:
Green staining
Black streaks
Discoloration on siding
General dingy appearance
Professional house washing in DeLand, FL and throughout Volusia County removes buildup safely and restores curb appeal without damaging your exterior surfaces.
For many homes, soft washing is the safest and most effective method.
