At ProWash, we believe that curb appeal isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about pride in your home, preserving its value, and creating a lasting first impression. While we stay busy week after week serving homeowners throughout Festus, Missouri, and the surrounding towns of Crystal City, Herculaneum, Pevely, Hillsboro, De Soto, Barnhart, and Arnold, every once in a while, we like to pause and reflect on standout transformations.

Today, we’re revisiting a previous job that still reminds us why we do what we do. This throwback features a gorgeous brick home that underwent a major refresh with a full exterior pressure washing. The difference was night and day—and it’s a perfect example of what professional cleaning can achieve for homes throughout the Festus area.

Why Brick Exteriors Need Regular Cleaning

Brick is one of the most durable and classic exterior materials used in homes across Missouri. However, even though brick is strong, it isn’t immune to the elements. Over time, brick can become stained from:

• Algae and mildew

• Dirt and pollution buildup

• Hard water stains from irrigation systems

• Efflorescence (white powdery deposits)

• Mold and organic growth in shady or damp areas

This buildup doesn’t just make your home look weathered—it can actually degrade the surface and mortar joints over time. That’s why routine professional cleaning, especially using the right pressure and detergents, is essential.

Soft Washing vs. High Pressure: What ProWash Does Differently

One of the biggest misconceptions in exterior cleaning is that higher pressure means better results. In reality, the wrong technique can do more harm than good—especially on brick.

At ProWash, we use a soft washing method when appropriate. This combines:

• Eco-friendly, biodegradable detergents

• Low-pressure water application

• Gentle yet effective rinsing

This approach removes stubborn stains, kills organic growth at the root, and protects the surface integrity of your brickwork. The result? A clean that lasts longer, without the risk of damage.

• Attention to detail
