The secret to hoa & apartment pressure washing for stucco is using the right method, not the most pressure. In Pinehurst, NC, we match the cleaner and pressure to the surface so it comes out clean without damage. On stucco, the method we use is soft wash.
Method and pressure
Cleaning solution: A diluted house-wash solution with surfactant, given time to dwell, then a gentle rinse.
Cleaning stucco safely
Traditional stucco is porous and holds moisture, which is why it streaks green and black in humid and shaded spots. Hairline cracks are common, and high pressure can force water into them or break off the finish coat.
Avoid: High pressure, which can etch the texture, blow out patches and push water behind the wall.
How often: Every 1-2 years.

Local hoa & apartment pressure washing for stucco for Pinehurst, NC
In North Carolina, commercial buildings and sidewalks often need cleaning several times a year, because mildew, gum and grime build up quickly in the heat.
Parts of North Carolina are exposed to hurricanes and tropical storms. After a storm, washing removes mud, debris and salt spray from siding, screens and walkways. Check for damage first: loose siding, broken screens and roof damage need repair before anyone washes them.
Near the coast, salt air leaves a film on siding, windows, screens and railings that dulls finishes and speeds up corrosion on metal. Regular rinsing and washing help protect them.
