House Washing in Midland.

What Midland does to siding

Sitting on Midland Bay means the air always carries a little Georgian Bay moisture, and that’s all algae needs: the green film creeps across shaded vinyl all over town, worst on north-facing walls and under mature trees. Around the harbour and downtown, add the grime of a working waterfront — and the gulls — to lower walls, awnings, and storefront-adjacent homes.

Midland’s older streets are full of century brick and painted wood trim, which is exactly what a pressure washer ruins: blasted mortar joints and feathered paint. Soft washing cleans them safely — detergent does the work, and the rinse is gentler than a rainstorm. Out on Midland Point and toward the shore, seasonal places build up layers of grime between visits that a garden hose won’t move but one proper wash strips completely.

Midland tip: if your place is closed for winter, book the wash for opening week — you get a clean cottage all season, and we can do it before you arrive. You don’t need to be there for exterior work.

How we wash houses in Midland

Soft wash: pre-soak, purpose-made detergents that kill algae and mildew at the root, and a low-pressure rinse. Safe for brick, vinyl, aluminum, and painted wood. Results last months longer than pressure alone because the growth is dead, not just knocked back — and your gardens get rinsed throughout.
