Spring is here—and with it comes the perfect opportunity to refresh and protect your home’s exterior. Winter may have left behind dirt, grime, algae, and salt that can dull your property’s appearance and even lead to long-term damage. That’s why Certified Softwash Solutions has created this ultimate spring home cleaning checklist to help homeowners across Windsor-Essex get their homes looking spotless and ready for the season.

✅ 1. Roof Cleaning
Your roof takes the brunt of the winter weather. Snow, rain, and wind can lead to algae and moss growth, especially in shaded areas. A professional softwash of your roof removes harmful organisms and stains without damaging shingles—unlike high-pressure methods.
✅ 2. Gutter Cleaning
Clogged gutters are a recipe for disaster once spring rain starts to fall. Overflowing gutters can cause water to seep into your foundation, basement, or siding. Have your gutters cleared of leaves and debris to ensure proper drainage.
✅ 3. Siding Wash
Your home’s siding can accumulate dirt, algae, and mildew—especially after months of damp weather. We use low-pressure softwashing and eco-friendly solutions to restore your siding to like-new condition.
✅ 4. Window Washing
Your windows deserve to shine! Softwashing removes water stains, grime, and pollution without streaking or scratching your glass. It’s a simple way to let in more sunlight and improve your home’s overall appearance.
✅ 5. Driveway & Walkway Cleaning
Salt, mud, and oil from winter can stain your concrete or pavers. Softwashing lifts these contaminants and gives your walkways a bright, clean finish that’s both beautiful and safer to walk on.

✅ 6. Deck & Fence Refresh
Wooden decks and fences are especially vulnerable to weathering. A softwash removes algae and dirt buildup, preserving wood and improving curb appeal for your outdoor entertaining spaces.
✅ 7. House Cleaning for Overall Curb Appeal
If your whole home feels dingy, it may be time for a comprehensive house cleaning. This not only boosts curb appeal but also helps preserve your property’s surfaces and value. Spring is the perfect time to book this service before peak season arrives.
