You might not notice it right away — a little mildew under the eaves, dark streaks on your weatherboards, or algae on the shaded side of your home. But in Hamilton, those signs build up fast. Left unchecked, mould and grime can shorten your home’s paint life and cause permanent staining.
That’s why Hamilton homeowners from Claudelands to Flagstaff are choosing professional soft house washing to protect and preserve their biggest investment.
Mould, Mildew, and Dust: The Hamilton Exterior Challenge
The weather in Hamilton is ideal for plant growth — and unfortunately, that includes the moss, lichen, and mould kind too. Add in pollen-rich trees, heavy rainfall, and high UV levels, and you’ve got a city where home exteriors take a beating.
Common issues include:
- Mould on shaded walls and soffits
- Dust and pollen on light-coloured cladding
- Roof runoff causing wall streaks
- Spiderwebs and insect stains near windows and lights
- Paint fading due to UV and grime combination
Why Soft Washing Works Best in Hamilton
Our soft wash method is specifically designed for New Zealand homes, using:
- Low-pressure water that protects paint, plaster, and timber
- A biodegradable solution that kills organic growth at the root
- Spot detailing around trims, sills, baseboards, and eaves
- Safe cleaning for brick, weatherboard, Colorsteel, and more
It’s the best option for delicate exteriors, and a must-have for older or shaded homes.
Hamilton Suburbs We Specialise In
Every suburb has unique conditions, and our team tailors each wash accordingly:
Hillcrest, Claudelands & Silverdale
These older, leafy suburbs are ground zero for black mould. Our deep-treatment detergents and gentle rinsing techniques restore these homes without damaging heritage paintwork.
Rototuna, Flagstaff & Huntington
New builds show pollen, cobwebs, and oxidation fast. We focus on siding clarity and trim detailing to keep exteriors fresh and sale-ready.
Dinsdale, Nawton & Grandview Heights
These elevated, sun-exposed areas attract road dust and oxidation. We use pre-treatment soaks and follow up with a thorough soft rinse.
Glenview, Melville, Deanwell & Bader
Down south, homes are more shaded and prone to algae buildup. We apply an extended dwell time with our solution to fully eliminate green stains.

Local Feedback
“We’re in Nawton and didn’t realise how bad the black mould had gotten. Metro Water Blasting came in, did a full house wash, and now the place looks incredible. We’ll be doing this every year.”
