Pressure Washing and House Washing in Des Peres, MO
When you are letting a company work on a house like yours, the first question is not really about cleaning. It is who is actually showing up. Maverick SoftWash is verified by an independent third party that confirms our licensing and insurance and runs background checks on the owner and every single employee, re-verified every year. The second question is method, and on the brick, stone, and heavy trim common in Des Peres, the answer is low pressure.
Know Who Is Coming Before They Arrive
Des Peres is a small city with a lot of water and woods in it. The River des Peres, Deer Creek, and Two Mile Creek all run through it, and the city keeps two wooded conservation areas inside its limits, so shaded damp elevations are common on homes with a Census median build year of 1976.
Most exterior cleaning companies tell you they are licensed and insured. We are verified by somebody else, annually, and that verification covers criminal and background checks on every employee, not just the owner.
That is third-party verification of who we are. It is not a promise about how the job turns out. The work has to stand on its own, and it does: 4.8 stars across 235 Google reviews.
Brick, Stone, and Architectural Detail
Larger homes bring more masonry, more stone, and more trim detail, and every one of those surfaces is damaged by high pressure. We soft wash at roughly 60 PSI so the material is never at risk.
Roofs, Properly and Once
Black streaking on shingles is algae. We soft wash roofs only, never pressure wash them, and complete roof cleanings carry our 5-Year Spot-Free Limited Warranty.
A Clean That Holds
We kill the growth at the root rather than rinsing the surface, so results last four to six times longer than a pressure rinse. Fewer visits, and the property looks maintained rather than periodically rescued.
If You Searched for Pressure Washing in Des Peres
Pressure washing and power washing are the same service and both are things we do. The distinction that matters is which surfaces on your property should receive high pressure at all.
Concrete drives, walks, and patios should. Brick, stone, stucco, painted trim, and roofs should not. High pressure opens mortar joints, drives water behind stone and siding, and strips protective granules off shingles.
On most Des Peres properties the job is both, run in the same visit. The house is soft washed. The flatwork is pressure washed. Nobody has to guess which is which.
Des Peres Exterior Cleaning Questions
Who will actually be at my house?
A Maverick technician who is licensed, insured, and background checked, with that verification confirmed by an outside party and renewed annually. You are not getting an unvetted seasonal crew.
Is soft washing safe on stone and masonry?
Yes, and it is the only method that is. We rinse at roughly 60 PSI. High pressure is what damages mortar joints and forces water behind stone.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry general liability coverage and workers compensation on every employee, and we can provide a certificate of insurance on request.
How long does the result last?
Four to six times longer than a pressure rinse, because the growth is killed rather than knocked off. Most homes here go one to two years between house washes.
