The Irish Channel is dense rows of shotguns and doubles, which means long runs of painted siding and very narrow gaps between them.
The Irish Channel is dense rows of shotguns and doubles, so the work is long runs of painted siding with very narrow gaps between buildings. Those side walls are the problem elevations: they get almost no sun, almost no airflow, and they stay damp, so they grow algae far faster than the front of the same house.
Reaching a wall with three feet of clearance takes different equipment and more time than an open elevation, and it is the part most often skipped. We treat it the same as the facade: solution applied low to high, dwell time, then rinsed downward at low pressure so nothing is driven behind the boards.
Rows of shotguns and doubles leave side walls with very little clearance, sometimes only enough to walk through sideways. Those walls get almost no direct sun and almost no moving air, so they stay damp far longer than the front or back of the same house and grow algae several times faster.
They are also awkward enough that they get skipped. Reaching them properly needs different equipment and more time, and a wash that does the street facade and leaves the side wall green is a job half done. We treat the side wall the same as the front: solution low to high, dwell time, then rinsed downward at low pressure.
Where buildings adjoin, the boundary is often a shared or near-shared wall, and work on one property affects the other. Overspray, runoff, and where a ladder can be footed all need agreeing rather than assuming. We would rather have that conversation at the estimate than on the day, and if access depends on a neighbour we will say so upfront.
“Working with Big Easy Pressure Washing was a great experience. The staff are so easy to work with and they always find the time for me, even if it’s short notice.”
“Big Easy Pressure Washing came out to clean my windows and pressure wash the house. I was so impressed with their work! All of it was done quickly and the results were fantastic.”
“My roof had these ugly black streaks for a couple of years. I contacted Big Easy Pressure Washing, and they explained their gentle soft washing process clearly. They cleared the stains safely without lifting any shingles.”
“Our concrete driveway was covered in dark oil stains and years of deep grime. The team arrived right on time and worked incredibly hard. Now, the entrance to our home looks brand new.”
“Our commercial storefront looks amazing now. They cleaned the entire brick facade and sidewalks overnight so it wouldn’t disrupt our daytime customers. They removed layers of chewing gum and atmospheric pollution easily.”
“It had a lot of green mold growing on the shaded side of the house, which looked terrible. They used a safe soft wash technique that cleaned it completely without damaging anything.”
