Coastal living comes with obvious upsides, such as a more temperate climate, easy access to recreation, and abundant natural beauty.

A+ Pro Services has served this area since 1999. We're a woman-owned, locally operated exterior cleaning company with a long track record for meticulous work and outstanding customer service.

Exterior Cleaning Services for Homes and Commercial Properties in Wilmington

Wilmington's proximity to the coast means it’s exposed to storm debris, UV radiation, and corrosive, salty air. This salty air is destructive on its own, but it also combines with elevated humidity to feed algae, mildew, and organic buildup, damaging roofs, siding, driveways, glass, and more.

This type of damage may look cosmetic at first, but if left unchecked, it can require repairs that cost more than ongoing maintenance would have. Our extensive experience has taught us where these problems appear on Wilmington properties, and we’ve selected this list of services to address them:

• Window Cleaning: Professional window cleaning removes hard water, salt film, and pollen deposits, and it includes our Rainy Day Guarantee. That means if it rains within five days of our service and your bill is paid in full, we'll return for touch-ups at no additional charge.

• Soft Washing: Soft washing uses low-pressure solutions to clean siding, stucco, and vinyl surfaces that are vulnerable to damage from pressure washing. Soft washing is also the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association's recommended approach for removing algae from roofs.

• Driveway, Patio, and Hardscape Cleaning: Pressure washing works well on concrete driveways, brick, and certain patios. We calibrate the pressure appropriately for the surface we’re addressing to prevent damage.

• Waterproofing and Sealing: Sealing your hardscapes directly after pressure washing them makes both services last longer. Cleaning improves sealant adhesion, and the sealant prevents damaging moisture intrusion and salt and microbial buildup from settling into your pavers’ pours.

• Gutter Cleaning: Wilmington's pollen, salt, sand, and storm debris quickly fill gutters, and clogged gutters divert water into the exact places they should be keeping dry. 

• Solar Panel Cleaning: Salt film, pollen, and other buildup reduce solar panel output. Our technician is certified by the International Solar Cleaning Academy (ISCA) to clean solar panels using methods that protect panels while restoring efficiency.

• Glass Restoration: Glass restoration addresses mineral deposits and etching that cleaning alone cannot fix, restoring clarity without the need for expensive replacements.

• EZE Breeze Cleaning: These popular vinyl porch enclosures require a special approach; otherwise, you risk scratching or discoloring the panels. We follow manufacturer recommendations to ensure these features remain enjoyable retreats, but this service goes beyond panel cleaning. We’ll ensure your aluminum framing, screens, sliding tracks, and other components are clean and appropriately lubricated.

• Commercial Services: We provide many of our core services to commercial properties, municipal facilities, and HOA and POA communities on a regular schedule. Our janitorial services are performed by technicians certified by ISSA, The Worldwide Cleaning Industry Association, and are available after hours to avoid disruption.

FAQs About Exterior Cleaning in Wilmington

How often should Wilmington homeowners schedule exterior cleaning?

It largely depends on which services you’re considering and the environment around your home, including your exposure to direct sunlight and coastal winds, as well as the surrounding landscape. For many services, once or twice a year is sufficient. We can recommend a maintenance schedule for your situation after your free consultation.

What’s the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Soft washing uses lower pressure and specialized cleaning solutions for roofs, painted siding, vinyl, and other surfaces that high-pressure cleaning could damage. Pressure washing applies higher pressure to concrete driveways, brick, and hardscape. Most Wilmington properties need a combination of both methods.
