Getting To Know The North Caroline Climate

North carolina climate

People relocate to North Carolina and Fayetteville from all over the world. Despite its mountainous reputation, the state is vast. With coastlines and parts of the Appalachian and the Blue Ridge Mountains, we're home to many subclimates each of which brings different needs for cleaning exterior surfaces. Fayetteville sits on the Coastal Plain of the Eastern United States and enjoys mild seasons with temperature extremes few and far between.

  • Fayetteville sits near the coast which can bring occasional humidity extremes and decent rainfall, especially in the summertime.
  • That extra humidity might lead to unwanted plant growth on your home's exterior surfaces.
  • Pressure washing professionals are experts at removing plant growth on exterior surfaces while taking care to protect your home's natural finish
  • A tell-tale sign of plant growth on exterior surfaces is greenish-brown discoloration (especially on vinyl siding) or differences in color from one wall to another. Plant growth is more common on north-facing walls.

Seeing Black Streaks On Shingles?

That's algae (gloeocapsa magma if you want to get technical about it!). It's an adaptable algae that loves roofing materials like asphalt shingles. Most people expect algae to have a greenish hue, and they'd usually be right. But rooftop algae is extremely flexible. It adapts to roofs with a thin black coating that protects its vital cells from the UV rays of daytime sunlight and temperatures. There's no need to panic, black algae growth is extremely common. We've seen it a million times and can easily remove it through pressure washing!House washing with premium service is just a phone call away at 910-315-7650!

The Pressure Washing Difference In Plant-Growth Removal

Pressure washing is the number one way to remove plant growth on exterior surfaces and restore its original color. Less powerful techniques might remove the visual effects of plant growth, but these methods also leave behind invisible plant matter that allows growth to quickly return.

  • Pressure washing effectively removes plant growth through pressure. Small micro-organisms and plant life are no match for pressure washers which rip invisible plant life away while leaving surfaces intact.
  • Plant growth feeds on dust and dirt that normally builds up on surfaces over time. Pressure washing removes the food sources of plant growth like mold which extends surfaces' lifespan and saves you money.
  • We recommend most homeowners have their house professionally pressure washed about once per year. Late spring after the pollen has settled is a very popular choice for an annual cleaning.
