Creepy crawlies driving you crazy? It’s an Auckland-wide problem and something we can help you with. The answer is house washing, and it’s one of our most popular services. In conjunction with our gutter cleaning, house cleaning will reduce the number of breeding habitats around your home.
Most people book in a house washing service for other reasons. The most obvious is the final result looks really good and immediately increases the street appeal of a property. And when a house is professionally washed, it removes contaminants like salt, moss, mould, algae, lichen, air pollution and grease that can have ongoing and detrimental effects on a house’s paint work. Without regular house washing, paint can break down over time and expose wall cladding to the elements and all the nasty consequences that flow from that.
But while house washing is popular for those reasons, there’s also another big advantage to getting it done frequently. Bugs hate a clean house! So when a professional house wash company like us comes in and does our job, we get help to get rid of spiders and bugs at the same time. These critters like to make their home on YOUR home – namely the exterior walls of your property, where they create an awful mess, particularly spider webs. From the exterior walls, they often find their way into the internal walls and cavities of your home and decide to nest there. That’s how most insect problems begin within a home. But with house washing, we can nip everything in the bud by getting rid of spider webs, eggs and the big mess that little pests make.
For pest reduction purposes, we recommend you book a gutter cleaning at the same time as a house wash. Insects, rodents and birds love blocked roof gutters because they provide a place to hide and shelter, as well as a safe area to nest and a reliable food source. Gutter-living critters have a nasty habit of moving from the spouting into ceilings and, eventually, into the rest of the home. That’s why we recommend you ask for gutter cleaning at the same time as house washing – it’s another way of controlling pests at your property.
To enjoy the many advantages of regular house washing combined with gutter cleaning, we recommend you contact us today and discuss an ongoing programme so you can keep things clean – and keep pests away!
