How We Decide Which Method Goes on Each Surface
Most exterior cleaning damage comes from one thing using the wrong method on the wrong surface. Bailey Brothers brings both systems to every job and matches the method to the surface — every time.
Soft Wash biodegradable cleaning solutions) - used on:
Asphalt-shingle take out tile roofs
Painted vinyl siding
Stucco and EIFS
Wood decks (most cases)
Painted wood siding, trim, and fascia
Window screens and aluminum frames
Any delicate surface
The chemistry kills mold, algae, mildew, and gloeocapsa magma at the biological root — so growth takes substantially longer to return than with high-pressure water alone. Low pressure means zero risk to shingles, paint, caulk, or wood finish.
Hard Pressure Wash — used on hard surfaces only:
Concrete driveways, sidewalks, and patios
Unpainted masonry
Brick patios and pavers
Foundation walls (when appropriate)
Pool decks
High pressure removes embedded dirt, oil stains, tire marks, rust, and biological growth that low pressure can’t lift.
What We Clean
View All Our Services
House Washing
Full-exterior soft wash for residential homes across the Lansing tri-county area. We rinse away road grime, mildew, mold, and biological growth without damaging vinyl, painted wood, brick, or stucco. The biodegradable cleaning solutions kill biological growth at the root — not just the surface — so it doesn’t return as fast. We rinse plants before and after, control runoff, and use cleaning solutions that break down in soil within hours.
Roof Washing
We remove black streaks caused by gloeocapsa magma algae and extend shingle life with low-pressure soft wash. We never use high pressure on shingles — high PSI on asphalt shingles can lift granules, strip the protective coating, and void manufacturer warranties. Soft wash with biodegradable cleaning solutions is the safe alternative recommended by most major roofing manufacturers.
Driveway and Concrete Cleaning
Concrete driveways, sidewalks, walkways, patios, and pool decks. Pressure lifts oil stains, embedded dirt, tire marks, rust, salt residue, and biological growth that low pressure can’t reach. We control runoff so cleaning solutions don’t damage your lawn or landscaping.
Gutter Cleaning Lansing MI
We flush the interior of your gutters and verify that downspouts actually drain where they’re supposed to. Clogged gutters can cause fascia rot, ice damming in winter, and foundation water damage. Most residential gutter cleaning Lansing MI jobs finish in under an hour.
Window cleaning
Streak-free interior and exterior window cleaning, residential or commercial. Most Lansing-area homeowners get window cleaning twice a year — spring (after winter grime) and fall (before holiday hosting). We bundle window cleaning with house wash jobs at a reduced rate, or perform it as a standalone service.
Deck & Patio Cleaning
Wood decks get soft wash with deck-safe cleaning solutions to remove mildew and gray weathering without scarring the wood. Concrete patios get hard wash. Composite decking gets manufacturer-specific cleaning approaches that won’t void warranties.
Commercial Pressure Washing
Storefronts, parking lots, dumpster pads, drive-thrus, restaurant exterior grease cleanup, and building facades across the Lansing tri-county area. We schedule around your operating hours (early morning, late evening, or after-hours) so cleaning doesn’t disrupt your business. Recurring contracts available for property management firms — quarterly or monthly cleaning at a predictable price. We carry full commercial liability insurance with policy limits available on request.

Common Questions About Pressure Washing in Lansing

High pressure on vinyl can crack it, force water behind the siding, and strip the finish. Bailey Brothers in Lansing, MI uses soft wash on every delicate surface, every time.
Soft wash uses low pressure plus biodegradable cleaning solutions to dissolve and kill mold, algae, mildew, and gloeocapsa magma at the root. Pressure wash uses high water pressure to physically blast away embedded dirt and stains. Most home exteriors need both. Bailey Brothers in Lansing, MI brings both rigs to every job.
High pressure should not be used on roofs. Most major asphalt-shingle manufacturers recommend soft wash — low pressure with biodegradable cleaning solutions — to remove black streaks and extend shingle life.
