Moss, mould and grime build up on exterior cladding fast in Nelson's damp climate, especially on shaded walls that don't get much sun. I'm Mark, and I wash house exteriors across Nelson City, Stoke, Richmond and Tāhunanui, bringing tired, dirty cladding and weatherboards back to looking clean and cared for. It's one of the fastest ways to lift the whole look of a property from the street, and it protects the cladding from the long-term damage that trapped moisture and moss can cause.
A house wash needs a gentler touch than a driveway or path, too much pressure can strip paint, force water behind cladding, or damage weatherboards, so I adjust the technique for whatever the house is clad in. I work carefully around windows, vents and gutters, and I'm mindful of gardens and plants right up against the house. If you're getting ready to sell, prepping for repainting, or just want the place looking fresh again, a house wash makes a real difference fast, often the single biggest visual lift you can give a property in a day.

"Great experience dealing with Mark from Lawn in Order. Fast response, excellent comms and a great finish. Really impressed with the over-size apple tree they trimmed back. Also great clean up, very tidy."
Simon Gillard, Site Manager
"Mark is an honest hard working guy who always has the 'can do' attitude. He always goes above and beyond without being asked. I highly recommend him for water blasting, house washing, property maintenance, lawn mowing etc."
Dan Olberg
"Did a great job cleaning and re-staining our deck. Great workmanship at a reasonable price. Recommended."
Most Nelson homes benefit from a wash every 12 to 18 months, more often on shaded, damp-prone walls where moss and mould build up faster.
Not when it's done properly. I adjust the pressure for the cladding type, so paint and weatherboards aren't damaged.
Yes, I cover Nelson City, Stoke, Richmond, Tāhunanui and Atawhai.
For a job like this, Mark likes to come take a look in person so you get an accurate price. Fill this in and he'll be in touch to arrange a time.
