The holiday is over, and with it comes a return to routine. While you may be putting away decorations and catching up on work, there’s another area that deserves your attention—your home’s exterior.

In Festus, Missouri, spring and early summer bring moisture, pollen, and high humidity, which create the perfect conditions for algae, mold, and grime to cling to siding. If you hosted guests or spent time outdoors this past weekend, you may have noticed that your home’s siding looked less than perfect. But here’s the good news: restoring your home’s exterior to like-new condition is easier and safer than ever with professional house washing from ProWash.

Take a look at the before-and-after image above. What a difference! That dramatic transformation is the result of soft washing—a gentle but powerful method that removes layers of buildup without damaging your siding. And it’s exactly what your home deserves after a busy Memorial Day weekend.

Why You Need to Clean Your Home After the Holidays

Holidays bring more than just celebration—they bring traffic. Extra foot traffic on your patio, grill smoke wafting near your siding, dirt tracked near your foundation, and pollen accumulation can all leave your home looking worn out. In Festus and nearby areas like Crystal City, Herculaneum, Pevely, Hillsboro, De Soto, Barnhart, and Arnold, homeowners often experience:

• Mold and algae growing on shaded sides of the home

• Dark streaks from roof runoff staining the siding

• Pollen residue that causes allergies and discoloration

• Spider webs, bug stains, and mildew on soffits and eaves

• Grease or smoke residue from backyard barbecues

A post-holiday cleanup isn’t just for indoors. Giving your home’s exterior a fresh wash can reset your space and make it feel refreshed for the new season.

The Power of Soft Washing: Safe, Effective, and Long-Lasting

Unlike high-pressure washing that can damage siding, strip paint, or force water behind panels, ProWash uses a soft washing method that’s specifically designed for delicate surfaces. This low-pressure system combines biodegradable, eco-friendly cleaning agents with gentle water flow to eliminate contaminants at the root.

Here’s what soft washing delivers:

• Kills mildew, algae, and bacteria—not just washes them away

• Doesn’t harm siding, plants, or painted surfaces

• Long-lasting results that keep your home clean for months

• Restores curb appeal without costly repairs or repainting

It’s the same method that produced the incredible results in the before-and-after image above. The left side shows a home covered in green algae and black mold stains—something we often see in shaded areas of homes in Festus. The right side shows what’s possible with ProWash: a spotless, bright, and beautiful finish that instantly improves your home’s appearance.

When Was the Last Time You Washed Your Siding?

If your answer is more than a year ago—or you can’t remember—it’s time. Home exteriors should be washed at least once per year in climates like Missouri’s, where springtime moisture and summer heat create ideal breeding grounds for mold and mildew.

Here’s how to know it’s time to call ProWash:

• You see green or black discoloration on siding

• Your home looks dull or dirty even after rain

• Guests noticed stains or buildup over the holiday weekend

• You plan to paint or sell your home this summer

• You want to protect your investment and avoid long-term damage
