New construction pressure washing before the final walkthrough.
A finished build deserves a clean handoff. Southern Solution helps coordinate exterior washing, targeted stain assessment and separately scoped window cleaning for new construction in Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood and surrounding communities.
What does post-construction exterior cleaning include?
New construction pressure washing is a finishing service for surfaces that have accumulated soil during a build. It is not a substitute for debris hauling, trade corrections or manufacturer-directed curing. We coordinate with the builder so a clean surface is less likely to be dirtied again before the walkthrough.
Schedule around trades
For new construction pressure washing, tell us the turnover date, active trades and areas that must remain accessible. We can help identify a practical cleaning sequence.
Match the surface
Siding, glass, masonry and new concrete have different tolerances. We review age, finish, existing damage and manufacturer instructions.
Document the scope
Know what is included, what requires a test and what falls to another trade before work starts.
New construction pressure washing: surfaces and decisions.
Siding, soffits and trim: We assess construction dust and soil, exposed gaps, fresh finishes and sensitive details. Appropriate low-pressure washing may be suitable after the surface is ready.
Driveways, patios and walks: Mud, tire marks and clay may need different treatments. Newly placed concrete can be vulnerable to pressure marks; age, curing and the contractor’s guidance matter before cleaning.
Windows: Glass can carry labels, silicone, mortar dust and paint. Post-construction glass is detailed work, quoted separately where needed. See our window cleaning service.
What can be washed—and what needs a closer look?
Loose soil & dust
Often straightforward once surrounding work is complete. We check openings and sensitive finishes before rinsing.
Red clay & irrigation staining
May need a targeted stain treatment and test spot. Age, porosity and previous attempts affect the result.
Paint, caulk & mortar
These are not ordinary dirt. We identify the material and surface, then discuss testing, specialty removal or referral to the responsible trade.
Clean around what’s already finished.
New builds often have fresh paint, unfinished landscaping, open electrical areas, decorative masonry and recently installed windows. Before washing, we walk the work area and identify what needs protection or a different approach.
A practical site plan
- Identify sensitive glass, finishes, fixtures and landscaping.
- Discuss masking, wetting and runoff controls appropriate to the site and products. See the EPA stormwater best-practice resources.
- Confirm water availability, parking, access and active trades.
- Use soft wash where suitable; durable surfaces are cleaned with methods matched to their condition.
- Flag pre-existing damage or residue that needs further testing.
What affects new construction pressure washing pricing?
New construction pressure washing is quoted by the scope, surface condition and access—not just square footage. A basic exterior rinse is a different job from removing construction residue or detailing glass.
- Number and size of buildings, elevations and hardscape areas.
- Type and severity of clay, overspray, mortar or other residue.
- Separate glass detailing and any interior work.
- Height, equipment, water access and return visits.
- Construction sequence and deadline.
Ask for written inclusions and exclusions, including any test spots or specialty stain work. Explore the existing pricing guide.
Send us the useful details.
- Project address and walkthrough or closing date.
- Who is responsible for final approval and access.
- Full building photos plus close-ups of residue.
- Approximate size and number of structures.
- Concrete age and finish information, if available.
- Window scope, water source and site contact.
We can discuss whether a walkthrough or test spot is needed before the final quote.
New construction pressure washing FAQ
When should post-construction exterior cleaning be scheduled?
Schedule new construction pressure washing after the messy exterior trades are substantially complete and before handoff, while allowing time for any touch-ups. New materials must be ready to clean according to their manufacturer or installer.
Can you pressure wash freshly poured concrete?
Not automatically. Fresh concrete can be damaged by premature or excessive pressure. We review its age, curing, finish and the installer’s instructions before recommending a method or a later visit.
Does the price include post-construction window cleaning?
Only if it is specifically included in your written scope. Stickers, paint, silicone and construction debris can make glass detailing substantially different from a regular window clean.
Can every red clay or paint stain be removed?
No. The surface, stain age and previous treatment affect the result. We may recommend a test spot or refer the issue to the responsible trade rather than promise a result in advance.
Do you clean multiple homes or commercial projects?
We can discuss new construction pressure washing for a single property, phased homes or commercial work. Send the building count, location, sequence and deadline so we can plan access and pricing.
