Embry Hills is one of those neighborhoods where the homes feel solid, established, and well cared for — a mix of 1960s–1980s brick ranches, split-levels, and traditional two-story homes tucked into quiet, tree-lined streets. Many of these properties sit beneath heavy shade from mature oaks and pines, which keeps the neighborhood cool but also leaves roofs, siding, and concrete damp for long stretches of time. That constant moisture, combined with Georgia humidity and heavy pollen seasons, creates the perfect breeding ground for algae, mildew, roof streaks, and stubborn concrete stains. Older paint, brick, and siding in Embry Hills are especially vulnerable to that slow buildup.
That’s where My Exterior Cleaner will step in.
We provide roof soft washing, house washing, driveway and sidewalk cleaning, patio/porch washing, and full exterior soft-wash services throughout Embry Hills — especially around Chamblee Tucker Road, Henderson Mill Road, Embry Circle, Shallowford Road, and near local landmarks like the Embry Hills Club, Henderson Park, and the surrounding residential pockets. Whether your home is a shaded brick ranch that never fully dries out or an updated split-level prepping for resale or an HOA’s annual review, we know exactly how to clean it safely and restore its curb appeal.
Embry Hills experiences longer “wet cycles” than many nearby areas because of its dense tree canopy and deep-set lots. That allows organic growth to spread quickly, and pressure washing can easily damage siding, chip older paint, or crack aging mortar. Our low-pressure soft-wash system eliminates algae at the root, lifts away pollen and dirt buildup, and keeps your exterior materials safe — perfect for the older, character-rich homes common here.
If you live in Embry Hills, we make it easy to keep your home clean, protected, and looking crisp all year long — without risking damage to the surfaces that give the neighborhood its charm.
Reviews & Testimonials
House Soft Washing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
Embry Hills is full of 1960s ranches, split-levels, brick-front homes, and wood-siding additions tucked under big, established hardwoods. Shade is constant on side elevations and rear walls, especially in cul-de-sacs and along the rolling hills. Painted brick, aluminum siding, and Hardie-style replacements often develop green algae bands, mildew, and pollen film. Many homes also sit back from the road, so grime builds slowly but deeply.
Older paints, soft mortar, and aging aluminum siding don’t react well to pressure washing — it can scar brick faces, strip oxidation unevenly, or force water into seams. Lots are close enough that overspray can hit neighbors’ windows or vehicles. Homeowners want a clean home without damaging materials that have lasted decades.
Our soft-wash process uses low pressure and detergents tuned for shaded, moisture-heavy microclimates. We safely clean painted brick, aluminum, wood trim, and Hardie siding without stripping finishes. We also work in controlled sections so water runs clean and doesn’t streak wide ranch elevations. Overspray control is critical in Embry Hills — and we plan for it.
Roof Soft Washing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
Embry Hills roofs sit directly beneath mature oaks and pines, meaning leaves, debris, and year-round shade. Architectural shingles frequently develop black streaks, moss patches, and algae bloom — especially on the long front-facing slopes common on ranch and split-level homes. Humidity hangs in the valleys between homes, causing slow drying and persistent staining.
Algae is a living organism that slowly eats the limestone filler in shingles — meaning the roof ages prematurely even if it “looks fine from the street.” High pressure absolutely destroys shingles, knocks off granules, and voids warranties. With rising property values, a visibly dirty roof can drag down curb appeal and cause issues during appraisals.
We apply a manufacturer-approved soft-wash treatment that kills algae and lichen at the root, restoring shingle color without high pressure. We extend dwell time on shaded slopes and manage runoff so plants and yard beds stay safe. The result is a cleaner roof that lasts longer and finally matches the rest of the home’s appearance.
Concrete Pressure Washing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
Embry Hills has a mix of long sloped driveways, carports, original sidewalks, and patched concrete from various decades. Clay soil + heavy shade means concrete darkens with algae, tire marks, and orange-red stains. Low spots near carports or basement entries stay wet, becoming slick, especially after summer storms.
Older slabs can spall or chip if blasted with too much PSI. Patchwork concrete cleans unevenly if someone uses an amateur wand technique. Many homeowners assume clay stains are permanent — they’re not, but they require proper pretreatment. Slippery sidewalks can also become a liability for kids, guests, and deliveries.
We pretreat for algae, clay, and organic buildup before using a controlled-pressure surface cleaner. That means no tiger stripes, no gouging, no “half-clean” slab left behind. For shaded or chronically damp areas, we apply a mild post-treatment to slow algae regrowth so surfaces stay safer and cleaner longer.
Hardscape Pressure Washing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
Embry Hills yards often feature brick stoops, stone steps, retaining walls, and small patios that have weathered decades of shade and runoff. Moss collects in mortar joints, and older bricks darken rapidly. Many retaining walls have soft mortar or hairline cracking that shouldn’t be hit with aggressive pressure.
High-pressure cleaning can break aging mortar, chip brick edges, or pit softer stone. And uneven cleaning is extremely noticeable on patios with mixed materials or patchwork repairs. Homeowners want these areas clean and safe without stripping away the “classic” Embry Hills character.
Our chemistry-first hardscape cleaning dissolves moss, algae, and soil buildup before we rinse at safe pressures. We adjust angles to avoid damaging mortar and protect vulnerable edges. For pavers or older patios, we prioritize even cleaning across the whole field so the finish looks uniform and natural, not bleached or patchy.
Wood/Composite Soft Washing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
Back decks, porch rails, and fences in Embry Hills sit in near-constant shade thanks to mature trees. Moisture and pollen settle into every surface, turning boards gray, slimy, or dotted with black mildew bands. Composite decks added during renovations also accumulate a cloudy biofilm.
Pressure washing wood here leads to splintering, raised grain, and permanent stripes. Composite boards streak easily if cleaned incorrectly. Slippery deck steps — especially on north-facing homes or at basement entry landings — are a common hazard.
Our soft-wash approach breaks down organic buildup without tearing up wood fibers or etching synthetic boards. We rinse gently for a smooth, even finish. Stairs, rails, and landings receive special attention to restore traction and improve safety.
Concrete/Paver Sealing Services in Embry Hills, Ga
With shade, clay soil, and moisture retention, Embry Hills patios, driveways, and pavers tend to darken again quickly after cleaning. Paver joints shift or collect weeds, and concrete absorbs stains easily without protection.
A surface may look great after a cleaning, but without sealing, it reverts fast — sometimes within a couple of months. The wrong sealer can trap moisture, haze, peel, or turn slippery under shade. Pavers without stabilized joints eventually move or rut.
We use breathable, slip-resistant sealers chosen for shaded, moisture-heavy environments. On pavers, we re-sand and stabilize joints before sealing. On concrete, we apply sealers that resist clay staining and organic buildup so surfaces hold their clean look longer without becoming glossy or slick.
