Why Your Bloomington Vinyl Needs a Quick Bath (and How WinBros Makes It Easy)

If you live in Bloomington, you’ve probably noticed the shady north side of most houses turning green first. That’s because mold and algae love places that stay damp and don’t get much sun. They hitch a ride on dust, sap, and pollen, then set up shop on your siding—especially vinyl. Leaving that gunk alone stains the boards and can shave years off their life. Perfect Power Wash

The simple math of washing

Clean once you see green. Emphasis on this point... the most cost-effective solution for you that 1). Keeps curb appeal 2). Doesn't give mold time to eat at siding and damage it 3). Budget friendly
Full‑house reset every five years. Because the other three sides stay cleaner, most Bloomington homeowners only need the whole exterior washed about twice a decade—saving money while keeping the place sharp.
North‑side touch‑ups are cheap. We offer a “north‑side only” option for in‑between years.

Why gentle beats “blast it off”

High pressure can force water behind panels or leave tiger‑stripe marks. Instead, WinBros uses a soft‑wash method:

The process is simple, tape up and cover anything that might get damaged by the chemical (plants, electrical, paint and stain). Then spray the 1-2% mix of sodium hypochlorite onto the targeted area. Let sit for 2-3 minutes. Then rinse off and re-rinse all plants around the spray area.
