Our "Safe Wash" Approach

Los Altos' Original Roof Cleaning Professionals

Avoid harmful pressure washing and come to the experts at Pacific Exterior for the safe cleaning, restoration, and maintenance of your home or commercial facility. We have years of experience working on both residential and commercial projects, and our methods are safe for a variety of building materials.

While power washing may remove visible contaminants temporarily, it is biological growths (such as algae, bacteria, fungus, lichen, mold, and moss) that are the leading causes of dark surface staining and shading. These eyesores are resistant to the various pressure washing techniques typically used by cleaning contractors.

Additionally, traditional pressure washing methods are often destructive to exterior building surfaces and products, so while it may blast away the surface dirt and debris, permanent damage may also result. In fact, several renowned exterior building brands like Sto, Dryvit, and GAF advise against the use of high-pressure cleaning.

We utilize non-pressure methods on a variety of commercial and residential roofs and exteriors to provide superior, consistent, and long-lasting results.

We can clean:

Concrete
Stucco
Synthetic stucco (EIFS)
Metal siding & roofs
Clay Tile
Slate
Asphalt shingles
Commercial cool roofs (TPO and PVC)
And more...

Just had a great experience hiring Jeremiah at Pacific Exterior to clean a couple of elevated decks and an entrance walkway that hadn't been cleaned since we moved in 8 years ago. We live in the hills above Soquel and get early morning fog just about every day, which means lots of moldy stone pavers. Jeremiah returned my call same day, and was able to schedule a visit for a free estimate the next day, and started and completed the work the following day. He is easy to contact and communicate with, starts right on time in the morning and works diligently through the day. The results were impressive. Stone pavers were beautifully clean, with no damage to the old and failing grout! He has an experienced touch. I would absolutely recommend Jeremiah and Pacific Exterior to anyone needing this type of service.

Jeremiah was thorough and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of ridding our roof, hardscape and exterior of mold, bacteria and grime! He was both considerate and professional on all levels. Our whole exterior is renewed and looks new again! I cannot recommend him more highly!!

Pacific Exterior completely transformed my outside yard and entryway. I didn't realize how grimy and dull my patio, driveway and entry had become until they worked their magic. They arrived on time, were courteous and polite and spent all day working on my house. It looks brand new! Highly recommend Pacific Exterior.

Impressive! Working with Pacific Exterior was great from start to finish. Very professional, excellent communication and very skilled work. My mom’s vintage tile roof was a mossy mess and Eric and company cleaned it without breaking a single tile and got it looking like new. They addressed my concerns and protected the plants and items around the perimeter of the house and left no trace of any dirt anywhere. Five stars, TEN!

Jeremiah did a great job of revitalizing our back patio. He was very nice, service oriented, and knowlegable. I asked him a few questions or so, and learned about good techniques to clean brick that I hadn't hear of before. these folks are good insofar as our experience.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cleaning your roof can save you money in more ways than one...

  • First, the algae and fungus that grow can cause premature roof granule loss, and shorten roof shingle life. So you save money because your roof lasts longer
  • Second, when the algae turn your roof black, it becomes less reflective, and it retains heat; If you use an air conditioner it has to work harder to overcome the increased heat load, costing money in electric bills.
  • Third, the aesthetics of cleaning your roof when it comes to selling your home can not only save you money but can make you money too.

It would be appreciated if you could do a few things the night before we come out to do the roof cleaning service:

  • Move all lawn equipment, furniture, and/or toys inside or away from the building.
  • Keep all animals inside or out away from the home.
  • Put any special plants out away from the house (if possible.)
  • Park vehicles on street or in the garage.

Pretty much just clear everything out away from around the house. We will be rinsing areas around the building during the treatment.

We almost exclusively use equipment no louder than a whisper. Occasionally we use a compressor for large commercial projects.

Yes. We have many happy customers who would love to share their roof cleaning experience with you, Most likely, some in your neighborhood. Please feel free to request a list by e-mail.
