We have treatments available using a patented product that kills moss, mould and lichen spores and other organic growth.
The property wash will remove the superficial growth in most cases but the treatment actually kills the spores.
Moss is a living, growing organism made up of a mass of tiny plants. Lichen and algae are similar and grow alongside moss.
They thrive in damp places and it is common for properties in valleys and gullies, areas with little sunlight or close to shady trees to have some form of organic growth.
Moss and lichen hold moisture and extends the length of time a cladding material stays wet. If left untreated, the spores will continue to spread, causing premature aging of paint work, permanent staining and wood rot.
Mould and algae don't have a root system like moss and so their appearance is more of an aesthetic issue and can make a property look shabby. Left untreated, they can cause dark staining to occur.
We spray the surfaces with a quality patented product as part of a post-wash treatment and leave the product to work over the months following a property wash.
Our customers are many from all over Wellington, Hutt Valley, Porirua and Kapiti.
As well as treating moss, mould and other nasty organisms, did you know we also offer exterior house washing?

I just wanted to say again how very happy I am with the house and pavement wash that you did.
Thank you so much for offering me such good valùe for money, and organising to come at such short notice when the other company had let me down.
My extended family also were very impressed and made comments about the quality job that you did.
I am very appreciative and will not hesitate to use Acorn House Washing again in the future. Kind regards from a very happy customer.

Thanks Acorn. It was great to start off the new year with an amazingly clean driveway and pathway.
I couldn't believe how much dirt your equipment cleaned away and the difference to the drive.
It looks brand new again. Awesome work and will use your services again.
