Roof, House, Concrete & More Washing in Pittsburg, GA
Pittsburg is a small, wooded residential pocket in DeKalb County, sitting quietly between Embry Hills, Wyloway, Chamblee-Tucker, and the Tucker-Norcross corridor. The area is dominated by 1960s–1980s brick ranches, split-levels, and traditional two-story homes tucked into shaded lots surrounded by mature pine and hardwood trees. That tree cover brings privacy and cooler summers — but it also traps moisture, pollen, and humidity against roofs, siding, and concrete. As a result, Pittsburg homeowners see algae, mildew, moss, and black roof streaks show up faster than in many nearby neighborhoods. Leaf litter, low airflow, and older exterior materials only make the buildup worse.
That’s exactly where My Exterior Cleaner comes in.
We provide roof soft washing, house washing, driveway and sidewalk cleaning, patio and porch washing, and full exterior soft-wash services throughout Pittsburg, GA — especially around Chamblee-Tucker Road, Tucker-Norcross Road, Henderson Road, Evans Road, and the residential pockets surrounding the Embry Hills area and Lions Club Park. Whether your home is a shaded brick ranch that battles algae every spring, a split-level needing a refresh before resale, or a property preparing for HOA or insurance review, we know how to clean it safely and effectively.
Pittsburg’s dense tree canopy keeps surfaces damp long after rainfall, creating ideal conditions for organic growth. High-pressure washing can damage older paint, crack mortar, scar brick, or push water into siding seams. That’s why our low-pressure soft-wash system is the perfect fit for this area. It kills algae at the root, restores brightness to siding and roofs, and protects aging exterior materials common throughout Pittsburg.
If you live in Pittsburg, we make maintaining your home’s curb appeal, longevity, and overall cleanliness easy — with safe, reliable, no-damage exterior cleaning built for the neighborhood’s unique conditions.
Reviews & Testimonials
House Soft Washing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Pittsburg sits in a dense, older DeKalb residential pocket with 60s–80s ranches, split-levels, and brick-front homes tucked along Chamblee-Tucker, Evans Rd, and the feeder streets heading toward Embry Hills. Shade from mature oaks and pines keeps north- and east-facing walls damp. Brick, Hardie, vinyl, and older aluminum siding all collect heavy algae bands, mildew bloom, and DeKalb’s signature yellow pollen crust. Road dust from I-85 and Chamblee-Tucker settles on front façades.
These homes aren’t built to be blasted. High pressure scars brick, chews mortar, strips oxidation off aluminum, and pushes water behind trim or older siding seams. Tight lots and carports mean overspray can travel—onto neighbors, driveways, vehicles, or landscaping. Many homes also have patch-painted siding from renovation cycles, and pressure washing exposes those differences instantly.
Our soft wash blends are calibrated for heavy shade and high organic load. Low-pressure application dissolves algae, mildew, pollen, and grime without damaging older materials. We tailor chemistry to brick vs fiber cement vs vinyl, and we manage runoff carefully on sloped yards and near drainage channels. Walls dry evenly with no stripes, etching, or blown-out paint patches.
Roof Soft Washing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Roofs in Pittsburg sit under thick canopy with minimal airflow. Asphalt shingles develop black streaks, lichen, and micro-moss—especially on east- and north-facing slopes and near overhanging limbs. Many homes have long rooflines over carports or rear decks that trap moisture underneath. Needle drop from pines accelerates staining and valley buildup.
Those streaks aren’t “age”—they’re algae feeding on shingle filler. Pressure washing destroys granules, opens the shingle mat, and often floods attic cavities or soffits. With home prices rising in DeKalb, inspectors and insurance adjusters flag untreated staining more aggressively than before.
We use a true manufacturer-style soft-wash system. Low-pressure application kills algae and lichen at the roots, preserving granules and extending the life of the roof. We shield plants, control runoff, and use multiple light passes on stubborn lichen clusters common under tree cover. The result is a uniform, restored roof without structural risk.
Concrete Pressure Washing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Pittsburg driveways and walkways are often narrow, older DeKalb slabs with clay staining, algae slicks, and dark tire lanes. Shade from the canopy keeps concrete wet after rain, and areas near downspouts or carports turn black-green quickly. Leaf tannins and silt from the sloped yards along Evans Rd and Chamblee-Tucker imprint brown shadows.
Over-pressuring these older slabs causes spalling and “chewing out” soft spots. DIY attempts usually create zebra stripes or reveal mismatched patches. Algae slicks on shaded walks and carport approaches are a legit safety hazard.
We pre-treat slabs to break down clay, algae, and tannins, allowing us to clean at controlled pressure. Surface cleaners keep everything even. For chronically wet areas—bottoms of driveways, shaded side walks—we apply a post-treatment to slow regrowth and improve traction. Everything looks brighter and stays cleaner longer.
Hardscape Pressure Washing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Many Pittsburg homes use brick steps, stone borders, block retaining walls, and older patios that have lived through decades of shifting clay. Shade keeps them damp; moss fills the joints; algae grows on treads; mulch and soil wash across surfaces during thunderstorms. Mortar in brick steps is often brittle.
High PSI blasts out mortar, pits brick faces, and damages soft stone. Uneven cleaning creates obvious “patches” on older materials. Slippery steps and landings are a safety issue, especially on sloping yards and older entryways.
We apply a chemistry-first approach: detergents dissolve moss, algae, and soil before any pressure touches the surface. Rinsing is done at reduced PSI and controlled angles to protect aging materials. We clean entire fields—steps, patios, retaining walls—for consistent curb appeal.
Wood/Composite Soft Washing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Wood decks, screened porches, and exterior stairs in Pittsburg sit in heavy shade behind ranches and split-levels. Humid air + limited sunlight = wood that stays damp and grows black mildew lines, green algae film, and slick treads. Composite boards pick up a sticky, cloudy biofilm from tree debris and nearby traffic particulates.
Pressure washing splinters wood, roughens surfaces, forces water into framing, and permanently streaks composite. Moisture already lingers here—water intrusion makes it worse. Slippery treads become a fall hazard for residents, guests, and delivery drivers.
Our soft wash dissolves organic buildup chemically, not mechanically. We rinse low and with the grain to avoid furred boards. On composite, we remove haze without etching. High-traffic areas—stairs, landings, porch entries—get extra attention for safety and uniform appearance.
Concrete/Paver Sealing Services in Pittsburg, Ga
Pittsburg’s clay soils, dense canopy, and frequent rainfall cause concrete and pavers to re-stain quickly after washing. Clay runoff settles into pores, oak and pine litter leave tannin marks, and shady patios stay damp enough to regrow algae in weeks. Many paver walkways are DIY installs that shift or develop low spots.
Leaving surfaces unsealed means fast re-staining and slippery regrowth. But cheap or glossy sealers trap moisture, haze, peel, or become dangerously slick. Unstabilized paver joints allow weeds and movement.
We apply breathable, slip-conscious sealers suited for shaded, humid microclimates. On pavers, we re-sand before sealing to stabilize the surface. On concrete, sealing reduces clay absorption and speeds future cleanings. Surfaces stay brighter and safer for months—not days.
