House Washing in Rancho Bernardo, CA.
House Washing for Rancho Bernardo homes, done by licensed San Diego County technicians. Your house is not a driveway. High pressure on stucco, lap siding, or painted trim drives water behind the surface, chips paint, and cracks elastomeric coatings.

Why is house washing different in North County Inland San Diego?
Inland stucco collects dust and cobwebs more than organic growth. A low-pressure soft wash with the right surfactant pulls both off in one pass, without blasting stucco sand loose the way high-pressure rigs do.

How does Rancho Bernardo's climate affect this service?
Master-planned community HOAs require regular soft wash on stucco. Inland stucco collects dust and cobwebs more than organic growth.
What is soft washing?
Low-pressure application (typically 60–80 PSI at the wall) of a cleaning solution — sodium hypochlorite plus a surfactant that keeps it on the surface long enough to work. The chemistry kills algae, mildew, and gloeocapsa. Then we rinse with clean low-pressure water. No tip of a pressure wand ever touches your siding.
Will it hurt my plants?
Not if we do it right. We pre-wet every plant bed within overspray range, dilute the mix correctly, and post-rinse the foliage. Soft-wash pros do house washes every day around rose bushes, lemon trees, and Japanese maples. The damage stories come from DIY mixes that skip the pre-wet and use uncut SH.
