Witte's Washing. 352-561-4832. He lives in Duval. He's a neighbor of my handy man, who told me my house needed washing (there was black mildew in some shady areas). Witte uses a special solution (not bleach), he washed the roof too, and the windows and inside the lanai. House looked better than new and still does, months later. $60.

Are we talking stucco, vinyl or both in these recommendations?

I have used Egner's Exterior Cleaning for 7 years and their price of $52 hasn't changed that whole time. They are here on time, every time and do great work. Their number is 352-728-8537.

price depends on sq footage of your house
 
we use Egner's also, paid $50 recently - I think but can't remember for sure, that the price has actually gone down - increased competition?

Egner's Exterior - Pressure Washing
 
We had our Designer done two weeks ago and had a fantastic job done by Egner's. They use "low pressure" which is what I wanted. He explained it this way, low pressure but has a larger quanity of water. Charged me $52.00 for the house, $10.00 for the Lanai and $25.00 for some stubborn spots where the roof bled on the siding. He had to get some strong soap and a brush to scrub it by hand.

Will I use them again, you bet I will. :BigApplause:

I called the above number, and got someone else. Has Mr. Witte moved or gotten another phone number?

We have paid $35 with bleach which I prefer because the away from the sun parts of our frame Camellia need it. I don't think of bleach as bad. It kills those little, LITTLE things and makes things brighter.

(You can tell I am from Tide country in Cincinnati)

I will ask Sweetie when he gets home. The card is in Hadley.

I think I paid too much. I have been using Egners and this was the first time I had the birdcage done. I paid $117 and he didn't do as good a job as the young man the previous year who charged a whole lot less. I am going to get an estimate next year. I did not have any stains - just some bird feathers on the top of the bird cage.

Ours was a young man too, a proud father of two small children (he showed us their pictures)and he must have been there for well past an hour, maybe two. He sprayed on soap or cleanser first and when he left, the whole house just sparkled....including the inside of the lanai. He looked like a clean cut nice person too.

We moved the lanai furniture indoors before he came.

He was so honest and nice and I just called Sweetie, and he doesn't remember his name either. Jojo...could it have been the young man who did your property?

Did you write the fellow a check? If so, look through your check register - perhaps you made the check out to him personally. :)
