Look, Humidity is Basically a Paint Job’s Worst Enemy
There’s nothing quite like that sinking feeling you get when you’re walking
Take a walk out to your mailbox and look back at your house.
Do you see the bright, welcoming home you bought years ago? Or do you see a greenish tint on the siding, black streaks on the roof, and a driveway that looks more like a dirt road than concrete?
Here in Williston, we live in a beautiful area. We have the world-famous springs like Devil’s Den and the Blue Grotto right in our backyard. But there is a downside to all this lush nature and humidity: The Green Grime.
Humidity + Heat = Algae.
It’s inevitable in Levy County. That green stuff isn’t just “dirt.” It’s a living organism that is eating away at your paint, your wood, and your curb appeal.
You might think you need to repaint your entire house. But hold on. You might just need a professional bath.
At Precision Painting Experts, we specialize in Pressure Washing House Washing Services in Williston FL. We don’t just blast water; we use science to safely remove mold, mildew, and dirt without damaging your property.
Living near the springs and surrounded by agricultural land means our air is thick with moisture and dust. While that’s great for the peanut farms, it’s terrible for your house.
Algae & Mildew: Thrives in our humid subtropical climate, turning white siding green in months.
Red Clay & Dust: If you live off a dirt road near US-27 or have a long driveway, you know exactly how hard this is to clean.
Gloeocapsa Magma: That’s the scientific name for those ugly black streaks on your roof. It’s actually a bacteria that eats the limestone in your shingles!
Pollen: The spring yellow coating that turns into a sticky black paste when it rains.
This isn’t just cosmetic. If left alone, mold and algae will root into your paint and siding. They trap moisture against the surface, leading to wood rot and premature paint failure.
Regular cleaning is cheaper than replacing your siding.
Many homeowners are afraid of pressure washers—and they should be.
We have seen too many DIY disasters in Williston. We’ve seen vinyl siding shredded, window seals blown out, and wood decks furred up because someone used high pressure on a delicate surface.
We are different. We use a technique called Soft Washing.
Instead of using high pressure (which can damage your home), we use specialized, eco-friendly cleaning solutions applied at low pressure—about the same force as a garden hose.
The Chemistry does the work: The solution kills the algae and mold at the root.
The Rinse: We gently rinse it away, leaving a sparkling clean surface.
The Result: A cleaner home that stays clean longer because we actually killed the spores.
We only use high pressure where it belongs: on durable surfaces like concrete driveways and stone walkways.
If you are looking to freshen up your patio or driveway, this service pairs perfectly with our concrete and masonry painting services for a complete transformation.
How do you know it’s time to call the pros?
The “Green Skirt”: Look at the bottom 3 feet of your siding on the north side of your house. Is it green? That’s algae.
Black Roof Streaks: Your roof isn’t just dirty; it’s infected. Those streaks absorb heat, making your attic hotter and raising your AC bill.
Slippery Walkways: If your sidewalk or driveway gets slick when it rains, that’s a layer of invisible mold. It’s a slip-and-fall hazard waiting to happen.
Dull Paint: Your house looks faded. (Pro Tip: A good wash often reveals that the paint is fine, saving you from a full repaint!)
Cobwebs and Nests: Dirt daubers and spiders love dirty eaves. A good wash clears them out.
We proudly serve communities throughout North Central Florida with expert painting services. Our experienced team delivers exceptional results, using premium materials and proven techniques to transform homes and businesses across the region.
Let us share a quick story about a client near Williston Highlands.
The Wilsons were getting ready to sell their home. The realtor told them the curb appeal was lacking because the white vinyl siding looked gray and dingy. The Wilsons were panicked; they thought they had to spend $8,000 to replace the siding or repaint it.
They called Precision Painting Experts for a painting quote.
The Inspection: Our team arrived and inspected the siding. We told them, “Good news. You don’t need paint. You just need a professional soft wash.”
The Process: We arrived on a Tuesday morning. We covered their delicate landscaping and applied our soft wash blend. We let it dwell for 15 minutes, breaking down years of grime and mildew. Then, we rinsed it down. We also surface-cleaned their concrete driveway, removing years of oil stains and tire marks.
The Result: The house literally sparkled. The white siding was bright and crisp. The driveway looked like new concrete.
The Cost: Instead of thousands for painting, they spent a fraction of that for a full exterior cleaning. The house sold in three weeks.
Why choose us over renting a machine from the hardware store?
We are licensed and insured. We know how to protect your outlets, your doorbell cameras, and your plants. We treat your home like our own.
A consumer-grade pressure washer takes hours to clean a driveway that our industrial surface cleaners can finish in 30 minutes. We get in, get it done, and get out.
Pressure washing is often the first step in other home improvements.
Before Staining: You cannot stain a dirty fence. Our cleaning is the first step in our deck and fence staining services.
Before Painting: If you paint over chalky residue, the paint will peel. Our wash ensures a perfect bond for our exterior painting services.
Climbing a wet ladder to clean your eaves is dangerous. Don’t risk a trip to the ER. Let our trained professionals handle the heights.
No. We pre-wet all vegetation before applying any solution, and we rinse them thoroughly afterward. This dilutes any runoff to safe levels. We love Williston’s nature as much as you do!
We can significantly improve them. While old, set-in oil is difficult to remove 100% (as it soaks into the concrete pores), our industrial degreasers and hot-water capabilities do a far better job than cold water alone.
We recommend a house wash once a year to keep algae at bay. Driveways usually need cleaning every 12-18 months depending on tree cover.
No. As long as we have access to a working water spigot and the perimeter of the home is unlocked, we can perform the service while you are at work.
The algae isn’t going to go away on its own. In fact, it’s growing right now.
Don’t let your home look older than it is. Restore the beauty, protect the paint, and increase your curb appeal with one simple service.
