WHY PALO ALTO
MATTERS.

Palo Alto's housing stock is genuinely unique in the Bay — heritage Craftsmans and Victorians around Emerson, Eichler tracts in Greenmeadow and Green Gables, pre-war bungalows in Crescent Park, and modern rebuilds everywhere in between. Every era asks for a different approach, and we know the difference.

> Palo Alto architecture demands the right touch

Palo Alto is where you can't just "pressure wash the house" without knowing what you're washing.

Eichlers and mid-century. Whole tracts of Palo Alto — Greenmeadow, Green Gables, Fairmeadow — are Joseph Eichler homes: flat roofs, atrium entries, wood siding, big glass. Eichlers are preserved cultural heritage in Palo Alto, and they're also shockingly easy to damage. High pressure on siding strips paint and can push water past the single-pane glazing. We soft-wash every Eichler, every time, with biodegradable surfactant and low PSI.

Heritage Craftsmans. Old Palo Alto and Professorville are full of 100+ year old Craftsmans with original wood siding, detailed millwork, and tile or composition roofs that have been replaced multiple times. Washing them takes patience — pre-treat, soft-wash, rinse down from the foundation up. The wrong approach takes trim paint off in sheets.

Modern rebuilds. Tech-money rebuilds across Palo Alto — modern stucco, Paloform accents, architectural concrete, smooth plaster — look great but show every water spot. We finish these jobs with a neutralizing rinse to prevent the mineral spotting you get from hard water on flat architectural surfaces.

PALO ALTO
QUESTIONS

Straight answers for Palo Alto homeowners and businesses. Don't see yours? Call or text (408) 598-1857 — happy to walk you through anything.

Can you wash a Palo Alto Eichler safely?

Yes, and it's the only way to wash an Eichler. Eichlers need low-pressure soft-wash with biodegradable surfactant — never high pressure, which strips siding paint and can push water past single-pane glass.

Do you work in Old Palo Alto and Professorville?

Regularly. These heritage neighborhoods ask for the most careful work, and we're happy to provide references from similar properties on request.

Do you handle Palo Alto HOA and property manager accounts?

Yes. Net-30 invoicing, documented scope, before/after photos. Common on Palo Alto condo and apartment complexes.

Can you clean Palo Alto solar panels?

Yes — every major residential system. Palo Alto has exceptional solar adoption and panel cleaning is one of our most-requested services in town.

What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water (1,500–3,000+ PSI) for hard surfaces like concrete driveways and brick. Soft washing uses low pressure under 500 PSI combined with biodegradable cleaning solutions — the right method for stucco, wood siding, painted surfaces, and roof shingles. Using the wrong method can permanently damage surfaces, so we assess every property before we start.

Is it safe to pressure wash a roof?

No — never pressure-wash an asphalt shingle roof. High pressure strips the protective granules from shingles and voids most manufacturer warranties. The correct method is soft washing: low pressure plus an algaecide that kills moss, algae, and lichen at the biological level so it rinses off safely.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. Bull Run Exterior Wash LLC is fully licensed and carries liability insurance. Your property is protected on every job.

How fast can you get out for a free estimate?

Most estimates happen within 24–48 hours of your call. Call or text (408) 598-1857 — we reply fast and schedule around what works for you.
