Using a bucket with detergent and a large soft scrub brush attached to your extension pole, wash your house in sections

and rinse off as you go.

it is more economical for most homeowners to rent a large gas powered washer for a day or weekend. The rental yard staff will give you instructions on how to use it.

It's possible you may be able to get by with just a good powerwashing without detergent if all you have is surface dirt and cobwebs. For mildew, you must use chlorine bleach to kill it.

Before you start, tightly close all windows and doors. Either keep the spray away from lights and electrical outlets, or cover them with plastic (duct tape will hold up to water.)

Move lawn furniture, flowerpots and anything else out of the way. Cover landscaping close to the house with plastic sheeting, and weight it down, otherwise the water blasts

will blow it away.

Wear safe, nonskid shoes especially if you will be on a ladder. Sunglasses or safety goggles are a good idea too because you will be kicking up debris. Choose a warm day

without any wind. In fact the hotter the better, it's a great way to stay cool!
