Why it matters
Why Rotorua Houses Need a Regular Wash
Rotorua’s rain, shade and geothermal moisture help mould, lichen and mildew take hold on weatherboards, plaster and brick — even on newer homes. Left alone, that growth holds moisture against the cladding, dulls the paint and makes a tidy house look tired.
Mould and mildew on the walls
Green and black growth spreads quickly on south-facing and shaded walls, especially after a wet Rotorua winter.
Paint and cladding last longer
Dirt and organic growth hold moisture against the surface. A regular soft wash helps the exterior stay in better condition.
Kerb appeal for homes and rentals
A clean exterior is one of the fastest ways to freshen a property, whether you live there or manage it for someone else.
A tidier home for family and pets
Washing away mould, mildew and built-up grime leaves a cleaner exterior around the people and pets who use the place.
Many paint and cladding warranties expect regular washing. We can talk this through when we quote — we do not speak for the manufacturer.
The method
A Paint-Safe Soft Wash, Not a High-Pressure Blast
We use a low-pressure soft-wash system and eco-friendly products to lift dirt, algae, mould and mildew off the exterior without the damage a high-pressure blast can cause to paint and cladding.
Low-pressure soft wash
Gentle on weatherboards, brick and plaster. We clean the growth off rather than blasting the surface.
Eco-friendly products
Biodegradable, family-, pet- and garden-conscious cleaning solutions, used with care around planting and lawns.
A thorough exterior wash
Walls are the core of the job. A standard wash also includes the fascias, the outside of the spouting, and the paths.
| Factor | Typical high-pressure blast | Our soft wash |
|---|---|---|
| Pressure on the surface | High pressure can mark paint, drive water into joins and scar timber | Low-pressure application, designed to be paint-safe |
| What it is aiming to do | Force dirt off with water pressure | Loosen mould, algae and grime, then wash it away gently |
| Products | Varies | Eco-friendly, biodegradable products |
| Best suited to | Some hard surfaces, when used carefully | Weatherboards, brick, plaster and painted cladding |

House Washing Questions, Answered
How much does house washing cost in Rotorua?
Every house wash is quoted free, with no obligation. Guide prices for a standard single-storey wash are from $200 for a 2 bedroom, from $250 for a 3 bedroom, and from $300 for a 4 bedroom, plus GST. The final quote depends on access and condition, as well as the height of the house, the type of cladding, and how much growth is on the walls.
Will a soft wash damage my paint or weatherboards?
We use a low-pressure soft-wash system rather than a high-pressure blast, so the cleaning is gentle on paint, weatherboards, brick and plaster. We will talk through the condition of your cladding when we quote.
Are the products safe for children, pets and gardens?
We use eco-friendly, biodegradable products that are intended to be family-, pet- and garden-conscious. We still ask you to keep pets and children away from wet work areas until they have been rinsed and have dried.
Do I need to be home?
No, you do not need to be home. Just close all the windows before we arrive. We only need clear access around the outside of the house.

We provide house washing across Rotorua and its suburbs, plus Hamurana, Lake Ōkareka, Lake Tarawera, Lake Rotoiti, Mourea, Te Puke, Tokoroa and Mamaku. If you are slightly further out, ask — we will let you know if we can get to you.
Can you wash the roof or clear the gutters at the same time?
Yes, we can usually arrange that as part of a wider exterior clean, through Rotorua Property Services. Tell us what you need on the quote form and we will include it in the conversation.
