## What we do

Sunshine Cleaning Service is Metro Atlanta's one-stop shop for exterior cleaning. Pressure washing is our primary service — driveways, walkways, patios, concrete, brick, hardscape. Everything else we offer (soft wash, windows, gutters, roof restoration, deck cleaning, masonry restoration) pairs naturally with pressure washing. That is why we offer 50% off any secondary service when paired with a primary service: most customers want the full exterior done in one visit by one trusted crew.

We use specialized equipment including advanced RO/DI window cleaning filtration and dedicated low-pressure soft wash systems to safely lift dirt, algae, and grime without damaging your surfaces. We are proud to use ecoLATUS and ecoTERRA, our proprietary eco-conscious chemical blends, which deliver brilliant, deep-cleaning results while remaining safe for your landscaping. From flawless windows to immaculate siding and roofs, we handle the full exterior with restoration-grade craft.

## Our proprietary system

- **ecoLATUS** — proprietary eco-conscious chemical blend for siding, brick, painted surfaces, screens, and exterior masonry. Deep-cleans dirt, algae, mildew, and oxidation. Safe around plants and pets. Restoration-grade results.
- **ecoTERRA** — proprietary landscape-safe blend for hardscapes: driveways, walkways, patios, brick walls, stone surfaces. Powerful concrete and masonry cleaning that does not harm gardens, mulch beds, or grass nearby.
- **RO/DI Window Cleaning Filtration** — advanced reverse-osmosis and de-ionized water filtration on every window job. Spot-free pure water that rinses windows, frames, and screens completely without leaving mineral residue, streaks, or watermarks. The same technology high-end commercial buildings rely on.

## Answers to common buyer questions

**Q: What's the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?**
A: Pressure washing uses mechanical force — high-PSI water — to blast dirt off hard surfaces. Soft washing uses chemistry — biodegradable detergents and surfactants at low pressure — to dissolve organic growth on softer surfaces. Both have their place. Soft wash handles siding, roof, painted surfaces, screens, and stucco safely. Pressure handles concrete, brick driveways, hard patios, and parking lots.

**Q: Is pressure washing safe for my siding and paint?**
A: Traditional high-pressure washing can strip paint and force water behind siding. We use soft-wash technique on all painted, sided, brick, and stucco surfaces — a low-pressure detergent solution that breaks down dirt, algae, mildew, and oxidation without mechanical force. We reserve high pressure for concrete and brick walkways.

**Q: How long does the soft-wash roof treatment last?**
A: Visible improvement is immediate. Our soft-wash treatment kills the underlying algae, moss, and lichen at the root rather than just rinsing them off, so re-growth is significantly delayed. We back this with a three-year warranty against re-growth on roofs we treat — if algae returns within 3 years, we re-treat at no charge.

**Q: How much does window cleaning cost in Buckhead, Alpharetta, or Johns Creek?**
A: Window cleaning ranges from $290 for smaller homes to $700+ for larger estates, depending on home size, number of stories, screen condition, and exterior accessibility. The website's instant calculator returns an estimated range in 15 seconds.

**Q: How often should I have my house exterior cleaned?**
A: For metro Atlanta climate we recommend full exterior soft wash every 12 to 18 months. Roof soft wash every 24 to 36 months. Driveway pressure wash annually. Gutters twice per year (spring and fall).

**Q: Are you insured?**
A: Yes. $1 million general liability + workers' compensation. Certificates of insurance are available on request before any work begins.

**Q: Do you guarantee your work?**
A: Roof soft wash carries a three-year algae-and-moss re-growth warranty. All other services are guaranteed against workmanship defects — if you're not satisfied, we return to address the issue at no charge.

**Q: Do you work on commercial properties?**
A: Yes. Shopping centers, restaurants, multi-family complexes, fleet vehicles, parking lots, and dumpster pads. Commercial pricing is typically scoped per project after a site visit. After-hours scheduling available.

**Q: How quickly can you start?**
A: For residential work in our 14-city service area, we typically schedule within 5 to 10 days. Emergency or storm-damage work can often be expedited.

**Q: What area do you serve?**
A: Buckhead, Alpharetta, Sandy Springs, Milton, Johns Creek, Marietta, Roswell, Kennesaw, Suwanee, Cumming, Smyrna, Duluth, Decatur, Lawrenceville, and Canton — all within metro Atlanta, Georgia.

**Q: Will pressure washing damage my landscaping or plants?**
A: Not when soft-wash methodology is used. Our detergents are biodegradable. Plants and grass are pre-rinsed and re-rinsed where appropriate. We've completed thousands of soft-wash projects in metro Atlanta without landscape damage.

**Q: Do you take credit cards?**
A: Yes. Card, check, ACH, and other standard payment methods accepted. Invoicing available for commercial accounts.
