Power Washing
in Houston, PA
Mud Lines and Algae
Washed Off Houston Siding
Where Chartiers Run and Plum Run meet, the Main Street flats flood again and again, leaving silt and mud lines on the lower siding. The same thing happens along the Bishop Street ballfield edge, where the water marks foundations, porches, and walkways. Up on the close-set north-side grid, the shaded side walls grow algae and mildew instead. Here at Pro Kleen Industries, we wash all of it off around Houston. Call us at (724) 344-2534, whether you’re down on Main Street or up near Cherry Avenue.
Residential and Commercial Power Washing
Across Houston
We run one menu for homes and one for businesses, with the same crew and the same care on both. The scheduling is the main thing that changes between them.
Residential Power Washing for Houston's Older and Newer Homes
Inside the borough, most homes are two-story frame houses with vinyl or aluminum siding on narrow lots, with a run of solid-brick homes mixed in. Out past the borough line, the Houston-address homes tend to be all-brick ranches and newer colonials on bigger lots. They come with large decks, concrete patios off the walkout basement, and long driveways.
Here’s the residential menu:
- House Washing a soft wash for vinyl, Hardie board, and stucco, with the right pressure for brick.
- Driveway & Concrete Cleaning a surface cleaner that leaves no wand stripes on driveways, patios, sidewalks, and pool decks; new concrete gets a soft wash only.
- Deck Cleaning wood decks washed with a cleaning solution, composite decks like Trex and TimberTech hand scrubbed and soft washed so there are no lines.
- Fence Cleaning vinyl fences soft washed, wood privacy fences washed with an algae solution.
- Deck & Fence Staining wood decks and wood fences cleaned one day and stained the next with commercial-grade product.
- Roof Cleaning a soft wash for asphalt shingles, concrete tile, slate, and metal. Asphalt shingle roofs are walked with fall protection. Tile and slate roofs are cleaned from a ladder at the gutter line. Metal roofs are generally cleaned from the ladder, although low-pitch metal roofs may be walked when appropriate.
- Gutter Cleaning hand-cleaned, bagged, and hauled away, with plain water only and a note on anything loose or leaking.
- Window Cleaning exterior glass only, cleaned with a purified-water pole as the finish on a house wash.
- Paver Sealing old joint sand pulled out and replaced, compacted in, then sealed in a matte or high-gloss finish.
- Concrete Sealing a penetrating sealer for broom-finish concrete or a topical sealer for stamped and exposed aggregate, always cleaned first.
Spring through fall is our busy season, and plenty of Houston homeowners simply have us back every year. Borough jobs are often worked from the back alley, since the houses sit so close together. The homes past the line give us more driveway, deck, and patio to cover.
Commercial Power Washing for Houston Restaurants and Buildings
On the commercial side, we clean the solid-brick buildings along Pike Street and Main Street, from multi-unit buildings to the restaurants and taprooms whose sidewalks pick up food grease. Here’s what we handle:
- Commercial Concrete Cleaning hot water and industrial degreasers that cut grease, oil, and gum from concrete, scoped on site.
- Restaurant Cleaning the outside of the property, the dumpster pad, sidewalks, entrances, drive-thru lane, and building exterior.
- Dumpster Pad Cleaning several hot-water passes on pads at restaurants, grocery stores, and apartment complexes, starting with a deep clean.
- Parking Lot & Garage Cleaning blacktop lots street-swept and concrete garages swept or washed.
- Building Washing (incl. HOAs & Apartment Complexes) whole-property programs covering vinyl, brick, stucco, and EIFS buildings, plus roofs, gutters, concrete, and windows.
- Rust Removal rust, fertilizer, and battery-acid stains treated across whole concrete slabs and then neutralized.
- Awning Cleaning aluminum and canvas awnings cleaned with a soft wash and an algaecide, never high pressure.
- Industrial Power Washing warehouse and facility concrete floors cleaned, with the wash water contained or pumped to the oil separator.
- Post-Construction Clean Up for general contractors, construction dust is rinsed off the building, exterior windows, gutters are flushed, and concrete is cleared after the landscapers.
- Roof Cleaning commercial TPO and vinyl-membrane roofs rinsed and neutralized.
We set up commercial jobs with marked trucks, work lights, cones, and caution signs, and a two-person crew, one washing and one spotting. Where the wash water can’t just run off the lot, we contain it and recover it.
Why Houston Property
Owners Choose Our Crew
A few things come up again and again in what customers tell us, and they’re the standards we hold on every job.
We Match the Method to the Surface
What homeowners worry about most is harm to the house: high pressure driving water under a door, siding stripped, plants killed by the last crew’s chemicals. So we match the method to the surface instead of hitting everything with the same pressure. Your siding, roof, vinyl fences, composite decks, and awnings get a low-pressure soft wash, and our roof system runs under 60 PSI, barely more than a garden hose. Brick, wood, and concrete get the pressure they can safely take. We soak your plants before any solution goes on, and we ask how old your concrete is before we touch it, because new concrete needs a gentler hand. That’s how we protect your property, every step of the way.
Equipment an Engineer Built in Our Own Shop
Our crew is led by an electrical engineer who spent more than a decade on large industrial projects in power plants, steel mills, and mines. That background included building power washing rigs long before any of us cleaned houses for pay. Every rig we pull up in was built and maintained in our own shop. The gear is dependable, and the crew running it knows it inside out.
We Do the Steps Other Companies Skip
We don’t rush one job to get to the next. We post-treat every driveway after the surface cleaner, so there are no stripes and the clean holds longer. We flush and water-test every gutter and downspout before we pack up. We pull every grain of old sand out of a paver patio instead of topping it off. We sand a deck before we stain it. And we lay sealer down at the manufacturer’s full rate, never watered down to stretch it.
We Bring Our Own Water
No spigot, no problem. Our trucks carry their own water; we can tow in a water buffalo, and we run several hundred feet of hose. Homes on a well or a spring, long driveways on the lots past the borough line, and fence runs stretched out across a field all still get cleaned.
Commercial Work on Your Schedule
Most of our commercial work happens after hours, overnight, or on the weekend, so your customers, your tenants, and your traffic are never in our way. You get a written scope up front. We show up when we say we will and finish when we say we will. We stay in touch with your property manager the whole way through.

Power Washing Visit
How a House Wash Goes,
Reminders to Walk-Around
A house wash is a good example of how we run a job, from the first reminder to the last walk-around.
Book Online and Get Three Reminders
You accept the estimate online, and from there we send three reminders: one when you book, one the day before, and a text about two hours before we arrive.
We Park on the Street and Walk the House
We pull up and park on the street so your driveway stays open, cone off the work area, and knock. Your technician introduces himself, then walks the house with you to catch the one spot only you ever notice.
Photos of All Four Sides
Before anything gets wet, we photograph all four sides for the work order. It’s our own record, and it’s there if a question ever comes up later.
Prep and Protect the Yard
We rinse the whole area down first from our self-contained water tanks, water every plant, and move the porch furniture out of the way.
The Soft Wash
We soft wash the house with our dedicated soft wash system, using a solution mixed for your siding. Vinyl takes the least, stucco needs a stronger mix, and painted Hardie board gets a small test spot first so we know the paint holds up. Brick is the one surface that takes a higher-pressure wash it can handle. We don’t rush it, and even a small house gets at least an hour. On the close-set north-side homes, we usually set up from the back alley, and we give the shaded side walls extra time where the algae and mildew settle in.
A Final Walk-Around Before We Go
When the wash is done, we walk the house with you again to be sure it looks right. You can pay by check, cash, or card, and a yard sign goes in on the way out.

A couple of notes on top of the rates. Water delivery is available for an added charge, which only comes up when there is no usable spigot, and we tell you when we quote. Combining services lets us price the work together on one itemized estimate. Ask about multi-service pricing when requesting your quote.
Maintenance Plans
for Houston Businesses
For commercial properties, our Maintenance Plans start with a first-time deep clean and then keep the property on a set schedule at a lower per-visit rate. You can change how often we come as your needs change, and weekly or bi-weekly visits are available on request.
A first-time deep clean, then a monthly visit that keeps your property presentable and gets it cleaner every time.
A first-time deep clean, then quarterly visits on a set schedule. Set it and forget it.
We plan your property’s cleaning around your budget, rotating concrete, building washing, and roofs on the schedule each one actually needs.
Two Promises Behind
Every Houston Job
We keep it simple, and we put both of these in writing on homes and commercial sites alike.
A Final Walk-Around on Every Job
Before we leave, we walk the property with you to make sure everything meets your standards. If we missed something, we come back and make it right at no charge.
$2 Million in Coverage, Certificate on Request
We carry $2 million in general liability, $2 million in commercial auto, and $2 million in workers’ compensation coverage, double what many contractors carry, and we provide a certificate of insurance on request. A property manager can have that certificate before we ever start.

A Local Crew From the
Main Street Flats to Cherry Avenue
Houston is a small borough where a clean house gets noticed from the sidewalk. We put something back into the area too, sponsoring local youth wrestling clubs and grappling gyms. If you’ve driven Main Street or Pike Street, you’ve passed most of the places that hold this town together:
- The Houston Borough Office on Western Avenue
- The Houston Volunteer Fire Department on West McNutt Street
- The Houston Ballfield on Bishop Street, down along Chartiers Creek
- First United Presbyterian Church on North Main Street
Most of our Houston work runs across the north-side grid, up and down Pike Street, and along the Main Street flats. We’re also over by the ballfield on Bishop Street and out at the Houston-address homes just past the borough line.
