Building facades hold a film of road pollution, mildew, and dirt that dulls the whole property. Central Triangle Pressure Washing soft washes Durham building exteriors of brick, stucco, metal, and block to clear it without forcing water into the envelope.
A clean facade signals a well-run business. We soft wash Durham buildings of every material, lifting pollution film and mildew at low pressure so the surface looks sharp and stays sound.
Durham has the oldest housing stock in our area. The neighborhoods around Duke and downtown are painted wood, original brick, and mature oak canopy, which means shaded walls green up early and gutters fill with more than pine straw. Almost none of it wants pressure. We soft wash the siding and hand-clear the gutters.
Durham commercial splits three ways. Research Triangle Park office and lab buildings judged on entrance glass and walkways. Downtown and the tobacco district, where restored brick and restaurant patios sit right on the sidewalk. And the medical corridor around Duke, which holds a standard of its own.
Neighborhoods we cover: Trinity Park, Old West Durham, Hope Valley, Woodcroft, Southpoint, Duke Forest, Watts-Hillandale, Downtown and the American Tobacco district.
Durham has the oldest housing stock in our service area, and the exteriors reflect it. Painted wood around Trinity Park and Old West Durham is frequently on its third or fourth coat, and anything above low pressure will find the weak layer. Heavy canopy across the older neighborhoods keeps walls damp late into the morning, so algae establishes earlier in the season than it does further east. Gutters here fill with hardwood leaf mat rather than pine straw, which composts in the trough and holds water against the fascia.
Durham work runs from soft washing century-old painted wood near Duke to routine vinyl washing in Woodcroft and Southpoint. Commercially we clean entrances and walkways across Research Triangle Park, restored brick and patio concrete in the tobacco district, and the patient-facing approaches around the medical corridor. Older properties frequently need a conversation about what will and will not lift before we quote.
Durham's canopy pushes the calendar earlier than the open subdivisions east of here. Shaded north walls near Duke and downtown show growth by March, well before pollen season ends, and waiting until May means living with it for two extra months. We generally treat the shaded elevations early and come back for a full house wash after the pollen drops. Gutters here fill with leaf litter as well as pine straw, so a fall clearing after the oaks finish matters more than it does elsewhere in the Triangle.

“Central Triangle Pressure Washing did a great job washing our house! They were on time and worked hard to make our brick and vinyl house look better than ever! The dirty white vinyl and aluminum is now beautiful again! The outside stairwell going into our basement in particular was a nightmare and now it looks like new! Their pricing is also very fair. My husband and I highly recommend giving them a try! We will definitely use them again!”
