Vinyl Siding Cleaning by the Best and Most Thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL. Vinyl Siding is durable, versatile and resilient, but it does require routine care and cleaning. Vinyl siding is growing in popularity. The US Census Bureau statistics show that vinyl siding has been the leading exterior in the US since 1995. In 2011, 33% of new single family homes in the US had vinyl siding, says the Most Thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
Vinyl Siding can accumulate a host of dirt, grime, and stains like pollen, bird and insect droppings, spider webs and rust. In shady, moist areas, mold and mildew can grow. Also insecticides, herbicides, and fertilizers can discolor the vinyl, says the 45 Year Old Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
Cleaning vinyl siding is a fairly easy job and there are commerical products that will help to remove typical stains, but here are a few DIY cleaning solutions, that can be used, says the Premier Residential House Cleaning and Maid service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
A 70% water and 30% vinegar makes a great general all purpose vinyl siding cleaner that removes light mold and mildew stains. Using a long handled, soft bristle brush, start to clean from the bottom and work towards the top, to avoid streaking, says the Foremost Residential House Cleaning and Maid service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid. Rinse away any residue.
A stronger solution, is 1/3 cup powdered laundry detergent, 2/3 cup powdered household cleaner, 1 quart liquid laundry bleach and 1 gallon of water. Again, use a long handled, soft bristle brush to clean from the bottom to the top.
If there is a lot of landscaping, use a vinyl cleaning solution of 1 gallon of water with 1 cup of oxygen bleach in a bucket. The oxygen bleach will clean the vinyl without damaging the landscaping, says the Most Thorough Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
Cleaning vinyl siding is easier using a pressure washer, but be sure to point the pressure washer onto the vinyl siding, at eye level. Do not point upward, as this may damage and drive the water behind the siding. Also, be careful when pressure washing around windows, doors, and plumbing connections, says the 45 Year Old Residential House Cleaning and Maid Service in Evanston, IL., Dial-A-Maid.
