Exterior House Washing In Winnipeg Manitoba
Searching For "House Washing Near Me" We Can Help!
House washing is something most homeowners don't even think about, but it's an excellent and affordable way to drastically improve your curb appeal and it's a quick transformation too! Often it doesn't take long for the exterior of a home to get dirty. In just a few short years mold, mildew, bird droppings, soot, pollen and dust can all build up to unsightly levels.
If your house is in the shade of large trees you'll be battling with algae, mildew, and pollens building up from the organic debris. If your house is in the sun it's going to be dust, dirt, and grime. House washing can quickly remove all of this dirt and grime.
Insight Service Solutions Inc is an exterior cleaning company based in Winnipeg and serving clients throughout the Winnipeg area. We specialize in exterior house washing services. We can clean all types of siding including vinyl siding, metal siding, wood siding, stucco siding, and fiber-cement siding. We offer both power washing and soft wash (low pressure) house washing services so we can safely clean all of the surfaces on the exterior of your home.
Soft Washing Or Power Washing? Which Is Better For My Home?
Soft Washing and Pressure Washing are two distinct cleaning methods used for different purposes and surfaces.
Pressure Washing: This method employs high-pressure water jets to remove dirt, grime, mold, and other stubborn substances from hard surfaces. It's highly effective on surfaces like concrete, brick, and other hard materials that can withstand the intense force. However, due to its power, it's not suitable for all surfaces, as it can potentially damage softer or more delicate materials, such as wood or vinyl siding.
Soft Washing: On the other hand, soft washing uses a low-pressure water stream, often combined with a biodegradable cleaning solution. This method is much gentler and is typically used for cleaning surfaces like roof tiles, painted wood, and house siding, where a high-pressure wash might cause damage. Despite its gentleness, it is highly effective at removing dirt, algae, mold, and mildew.
How To Prepare Your Home For A Good Washing
To ensure seamless service from Insight Service Solutions, we kindly ask you to prepare your home for our visit in the following manner:
#1. Please ensure all windows are closed and locked.
#2. Confirm that all window screens are intact and properly fitted.
#3. Consider relocating any exterior items like furniture, toys, potted plants, and other items for the safety of both our technicians and your belongings.
#4. If you need assistance moving certain items, we're more than willing to help.
#5. Make sure all doors, including garage doors, storm doors, and screen doors, are securely shut.
#6. Try to clear the driveway as much as possible to facilitate the setup of our technician's equipment or also if we're cleaning your driveway too.
#7. For the safety of our cleaners, kindly keep your pets in a secure area or with you during our visit.
By adhering to these guidelines, we can efficiently deliver our top-tier cleaning service, ensuring the highest level of satisfaction.
Exterior Surfaces We Can Clean Around Your Home
We offer both power washing and soft washing depending on the surface to be cleaned
Siding: This can be vinyl, wood, fiber cement, or metal. Be cautious with the pressure setting to avoid damage.
Stone and concrete walls: These can generally withstand high pressure, but we need to be cautious with softer or older stone surfaces.
Decks and patios: Wood, composite, and concrete surfaces can be power washed. We need to be careful not to damage wood surfaces with too high pressure.
Fences: Wooden, vinyl, or metal fences can be power washed, but we need to be cautious about the pressure to avoid damaging the material.
Driveways and sidewalks: Concrete and asphalt surfaces can be power washed. It's a great way to remove stubborn stains, algae, dirt, and grime.
Brick walls: They can withstand high pressure, but you need to be careful not to direct the water at the mortar, as it can dislodge.
Garage doors: Metal, wood, or vinyl doors can be power washed to remove years of dirt and grime.
Swimming pool decks: Concrete or tiled pool deck surfaces can be power washed to remove dirt, algae, and other contaminants that make the surface slippery.
Retaining walls: These can be power washed to remove years of accumulated dirt and moss.
Window and door frames: Can be power washed, but it should be done with low pressure to avoid damaging seals and caulking.
Sheds and outbuildings: Just like the siding on your home, these surfaces can be power washed to restore their appearance.

The equipment we have on our Insight Service Solution vehicles is designed for us to clean up to 3 stories high without the use of ladders. When we view your home to provide an estimate we can determine the safest, most effective way to clean your home exterior.
This can vary depending on environmental factors immediately surrounding your home but we recommend you get your house washed every 1 to 2 years. This can keep the build-up of contaminants lower and this makes the house easier to wash on subsequent visits.
At Insight Service Solutions, we approach every home cleaning task with the utmost care and precaution. When we arrive at your property, our priority is to treat your home as respectfully as if it were our own. As part of our rigorous approach to safeguarding your premises, we ensure any plants and delicate areas are appropriately covered and frequently rinsed before, during, and after our soft washing process. This meticulous care helps us prevent any potential harm, ensuring the integrity and beauty of your home remain intact throughout our cleaning service.
Yes, we can offer both services at the same time for a very thorough exterior clean. This is the perfect combo if you're getting your home ready to sell or you just want to give it that thorough once a year, deep-clean. We bring all the necessary equipment for these types of cleaning projects so they are done quickly and efficiently with the very same technician that is already performing your window and gutter cleaning service.
As part of our house washing service, we take care of cleaning the soffit but not the gutters or the gutter "face". If you require the exterior or interior of the gutters to be cleaned of all the debris, it will necessitate an additional fee. While the exterior of the gutters may experience some cleaning during the pressure wash, we strongly recommend our specialized exterior gutter cleaning for optimal results. This extra step ensures your gutters not only function smoothly but also enhance the overall aesthetics of your property.
The exterior of your gutters typically get dirty when the gutters are full of debris and then in-turn get full of water. The water spills over the side of the gutters, leaving those unsightly tiger stripes or dirty streaks.
