House Washing in Uniontown, Ohio
Vinyl and stone-veneer elevations need chemistry matched to the panel and the mortar joint, not one pressure setting run across both.
New suburban construction means large footprints, stone and vinyl combination elevations, three-car garages with wide aprons, poured patios, and fresh concrete that stains fast because it has not cured a decade of sealant into itself yet.
How we do it
Forcing water behind siding or into seals and vents causes moisture problems, not a cleaner house. A controlled, low-pressure approach protects those openings while still lifting dirt and organic growth.
- Inspect & Protect. We inspect exterior materials and protect applicable plants and fixtures before starting.
- Low-Pressure Solution. We apply a surface-appropriate cleaning solution at low pressure.
- Gutter Faces, Downspouts, Soffit & Fascia. The outside faces of the gutters and downspouts are cleaned, and soffit and fascia are washed. Clearing debris from inside the trough is a gutter clean-out — a separate service, and one that comes free with roof soft washing.
- Careful Rinse. We rinse carefully without forcing water behind siding, seals, vents, or openings.
The method does not change from one town to the next — what changes is what we find when we get there. The full house washing page has the rest of it.
What it costs in Uniontown
Uniontown is mostly newer suburban construction, and newer here means larger — a 2,500 square foot home is {{price:house-wash:2500}} and 3,000 square feet is {{price:house-wash:3000}}. A second story does not change that; the price follows the square footage. Ten-year-old vinyl still collects the same north-side algae as anything older, so being newer changes the price only by changing the size.
Every residential price is published, and the figure you accept is the figure you pay. Find your home’s square footage — it is on your county auditor listing — and you have your price. See the full price list.

House Washing in Uniontown — common questions
Do you cover the Stark County suburbs around Canton?
Yes. North Canton, Massillon, Louisville, Uniontown, and Hartville sit close enough together that a property in any of them can usually be seen in person without that becoming its own trip. The housing across them ranges from century brick near the Canton core to new-build stone and vinyl in Lake Township, so the method is set house by house rather than by which suburb it sits in. Put your address into the instant estimate for a price in about two minutes, or call if you would rather talk it through. You can get your own number right now: the [instant estimate](/instant-estimate) prices your property from the address in about two minutes, and what you accept is what you pay.
I have a long driveway and outbuildings near Hartville. Do you handle that kind of property?
Yes. Larger properties with long concrete drives, gravel-to-concrete transitions, outbuilding aprons, and open exposure are common around Hartville, and they are quoted by measured area and condition rather than as a flat house-and-drive package. Open exposure and nearby fields usually mean more organic staining on roofs and siding and more tracked soil on the concrete. On a property that size the walkthrough covers all of it, because the outbuildings and the drive are usually where the surface area actually is.

My roof looks fine from the street but I was told it has algae. Which is it?
Both can be true, and on the newer Uniontown houses that is common. Architectural shingle roofs on wide, complex rooflines hold moisture in the valleys and on the north planes, and that is where the first algae establishes while the rest of the roof still looks new. So the visible face of the roof is the last place to check, not the first. We look at the valleys and shaded planes on the walk-through and tell you whether you are looking at early growth worth treating now or a roof that can wait — treating early is cheaper and easier than treating a fully streaked roof later.

My Uniontown house is only about ten years old. Does it really need cleaning?
Newer suburban homes are not low-maintenance homes; they are differently-maintained homes. Vinyl and stone-veneer elevations need chemistry matched to the panel and to the mortar joint, not one pressure setting run across both — and a veneer joint is easier to damage than the panel next to it. What owners here notice first is almost always the concrete: driveways, aprons, patio and pool surrounds where organic growth and rust bleed read obviously against light gray concrete. So on a house this age it is usually the hardscape that is due, with the siding close behind.
I own a sit-down restaurant on Cleveland Avenue. What matters most out front?
Patio slabs, entry concrete and canopy appearance — in that order, because that is the order a customer standing outside takes them in while deciding whether to walk in. A stained slab or a streaked entry reads as neglect before anyone has seen the inside of your building. The commercial base here is smaller and more local than in Canton or Akron and skews toward sit-down restaurants and service businesses along Cleveland Avenue and Edison Street, which means your frontage is being compared to your immediate neighbors' rather than to a big plaza. We quote a one-time clean and a recurring interval so you can see the difference. The [maintenance plan](/maintenance-plan) is built for exactly this: an autumn visit, next year's price held, and a longer roof warranty.
The rust stain on my concrete keeps coming back. Why?
Because rust staining has a source, and until the source is dealt with the stain returns no matter how well it was treated. On light gray concrete it reads obviously, which is why owners here notice it early. Common sources are fertilizer with iron content, a metal fixture or railing shedding onto the slab, well water with iron in it running through an irrigation head, or something metal that was left sitting. On the estimate we treat the stain and tell you what we think is feeding it, because otherwise you are paying for the same removal every season.
Do you charge more for a two-story house?
No. One price covers the house at that size, whether it is one story or two. A 1,200 square foot home is $299 either way, and a 2,000 square foot home is $349 either way — you read your price off the table without doing arithmetic or wondering which column applies to you. A second story does take longer and needs more reach, and that is already built into the size-based price rather than added on top. Genuine difficulty does carry an add-on: a third story, or an elevation that cannot be worked from the ground. Anything like that is identified while the property is walked and stated before the work starts, never added afterward.

What is the difference between gutter cleaning, a gutter clean-out and gutter brightening?
Three different jobs on the same piece of metal. Gutter cleaning is the outside face of the gutter and downspout. It comes with a house wash or a siding cleaning at no extra cost. A gutter clean-out is interior work: removing packed leaves, shingle grit and sediment from inside the trough, then flushing each downspout to confirm water runs through it. It is included free with roof soft washing, because roof work puts debris into the gutters by design. It is also sold on its own, priced per linear foot, with no other service required. Gutter brightening removes the dark vertical striping bonded to the front face, often called tiger striping. That is oxidized aluminum and road film chemically stuck to the finish, so it needs a dedicated product and will not come off with house wash solution. It is never included in a house wash. A quick way to tell what you need: if the inside is full, you need a clean-out. If the outside is streaked dark, you need brightening. If neither, the cleaning that comes with your wash is enough. The gutter clean-out is free with a roof soft wash and 25% off added to a house wash, and the rate is published on the [pricing page](/pricing).

My 1977 colonial needs everything. Where should I start?
Roof first, then siding, then concrete — because each one drains onto the next. A colonial of that era in Solon typically means two full stories of siding, a steep roof with multiple planes, and a driveway poured around the same time. The roof is soft washed at height without touching the shingle. The sun-facing walls are usually chalked and need oxidation treatment rather than a wash. And a drive that has held nearly fifty winters of road salt is surface cleaning with stain treatment. Three different methods, three different outcomes, and most owners take them across two seasons.

My siding looks dull on the sunny side but fine in the shade. Why?
Two different problems on one house. The sun-facing elevations have oxidized — the vinyl finish itself has broken down into a dull, chalky layer, which is why a rinse wets it and it dries back looking the same. That needs oxidation treatment, not washing. The shaded planes, usually the roof, hold moisture and grow algae, which is organic and releases with a soft wash. The 1990s and 2000s Medina subdivisions are almost entirely vinyl siding with asphalt shingle, which is the pairing where this split shows up most.
