After months of rain, damp conditions, and limited sunlight, homes across Auckland often come out of winter covered in mould, dirt, and grime. This buildup not only affects the appearance of your property but can also lead to long-term damage if left untreated.
Post-winter house washing is one of the most effective ways to restore your home’s exterior and prepare it for the warmer months ahead. At Metro Water Blasting, we provide professional soft wash house washing services across Auckland, safely removing mould and grime while protecting your paintwork and cladding.

Why Homes Get Dirty Over Winter in Auckland
Auckland’s winter brings frequent rain, high humidity, and limited sunlight — ideal conditions for mould and organic growth.
Common winter-related issues include:
• Mould and mildew on exterior walls
• Green algae buildup in shaded areas
• Dirt and grime accumulation from rain
• Spider webs and debris buildup
• Staining on cladding and paintwork
Without cleaning, this buildup can worsen over time and become harder to remove.
