House exterior
Our house got it's yearly powerwashed yesterday. We have white siding and red brick exterior. The white is gleaming and the brick looks fresh and new. My neighbor said we were the only ones on the street to get our house washed every year, we have only been here for three years . I told him I know I can tell. He's crabby so I was snarky. How often do most get their house exterior washed top to bottom?
|
My hubby used to power wash our siding at least once a year. Couldn't wash the old stucco so mother nature had to do that for us.
I would have told crabby neighbour that it makes us happy. |
We had vinyl siding when I was a kid and we loved hosing off the house!
|
We do the vinyl siding once ever 2 years.
|
We live by water so the dirt seems to collect faster.

I think hubby does it once a year. We have aluminum siding.
We just installed a new roof, and talk about a facelift! I love the new color! (the charcoal gray) I hated that reddish brown roof. When we painted the house green about 10 years ago, it was SO hard picking a paint color that would go with both the brick and the roof. |
Whole house - every other year. The 34 feet under the carport that doesn't get rinsed by the rain - every year.

Peckish the new color roof does update the house and looks great. I like your landscaping too. Looks so neat and cared for. My house, the white siding stands out and is all you see in the front of the house. The extensions on both side are red brick and are hard to see.

I *LOVE* your house, I especially love the huge front porch! It looks so inviting. ❤️ I've always longed to have a home with a large front porch, but in my area we have mostly 70's ranch "snout houses" (where the first thing you see is the garage sticking out). |
A big front porch was one of my must haves when we were looking for our retirement home. It's like another room to me.

Peckish and Onebyone, your homes are lovely!
We have brick and siding so the siding gets powerwashed every couple of years. We have ivy growing up the front of the house on the brick and it has completely covered my sewing room windows LOL. Need to take care of that this fall. It's too hot right now to mess with! |
Peckish and onebyone your houses are beautiful. We haven't had ours powerwashed since new siding was installed. I am now trying to have three great big trees removed so they won't take down our power line. Wind has shifted and trees are slowly dying since we had to have a new waterline dug about 4-5 years ago.

We had the house painted 2 years ago, and it still looks good, so no power washing. I don't think we power washed the house in Baton Rouge, although I did do the driveway and sidewalks every year. Very satisfying.
|
Every year.
|
I live in a condo. Our buildings are power washed every other year, but could use it every year. Love that fresh sparkly clean after the wash.
