Why Choose Indy Power Wash for Exterior Mold & Mildew Removal?

Our specialized mold and mildew removal service effectively eliminates these growths, restoring your home’s curb appeal.
Our Mold & Mildew Removal Process
- Inspection: We assess the extent of mold and mildew growth and identify the type of surface material.
- Pre-treatment: For stubborn growths, we may apply a specialized biocide to kill mold spores before washing.
- Pressure washing: Using low-pressure settings and eco-friendly detergents, we gently yet effectively remove mold and mildew.
- Rinsing: We thoroughly rinse the treated area to remove all detergent and loosened debris.
- Post-treatment (optional): We can apply a protective sealant to help prevent future mold and mildew growth.
Factors that affect the cost of our exterior mold and mildew removal service include the size of the area, the type of surface material, and the severity of the growth.
Local Expertise for Indianapolis Homes
Indianapolis homes face unique exterior challenges. The continental climate with its freeze-thaw cycles can weaken surfaces, making them more susceptible to mold and mildew growth. Road salt used in winter can damage concrete and brick, creating an environment where mold thrives. Our team understands these local factors and tailors our services to effectively address them.
We commonly treat vinyl siding, the most prevalent exterior material in newer Indianapolis neighborhoods, as well as brick and wood found in older areas. We also frequently remove black algae, a common problem on asphalt shingle roofs in the region.
