Siding<\/a> is the protective material used for home exteriors. It endures lots of abuse and it\u2019s the one part of the house that gets the dirtiest.<\/span><\/p>

There are many types of siding and picking one or the other can greatly determine whether the cleaning process will be a breeze or a nightmare!<\/span><\/p>

That\u2019s why we\u2019ve developed an introductory guide to the main types of siding and how to properly clean every one of them!<\/span><\/p>

Basic Rules<\/span><\/h2>

While there are many types of siding available, there are a couple of ground rules you should be following when dealing with <\/span>siding maintenance<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

  1. You must clean your siding when the sun is not hitting your house directly.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>
  2. Since it\u2019s a very big area, you must wash, scrub and rinse by sections before moving on to the next one.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>
  3. Follow the specifications for your type of siding.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

    Now, with the basic rules already in place, we can move on to the types of siding we\u2019ll talk about today. Since it\u2019s an introductory guide, we\u2019ll focus on the more common siding materials: vinyl, wood and brick. Let\u2019s get started!<\/span><\/p>

    Vinyl<\/span><\/h2>

    Vinyl is one of the most common siding solutions for residential use since it\u2019s easy to care for and it withstands tough weather conditions. The main gripe with it is it can get pretty grimy due to the outdoors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    To clean vinyl siding, you must read the manufacturer\u2019s instructions, but one main component is you should always use cold water when washing these types of siding.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    Wood<\/span><\/h2>

    Whether painted, sealed, or left to weather naturally will always benefit from a gentle scrub from time to time. You shouldn\u2019t really be power washing your wood siding unless you have hired a professional since it takes a very careful hand to do it without damaging the siding.<\/span><\/p>

    Brick<\/span><\/h2>

    Finally, there\u2019s brick. A rugged siding solution that can last for generations. If you plan on scrubbing, you\u2019ll definitely need a coarser brush to get the debris that\u2019s embedded in the structure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    But, if you want to get deep into it, you should consider power washing. Siding materials like brick are one of the reasons power washing even exists, just be careful and hire a professional!<\/span><\/p>
