Lake Magdalene is a quiet neighborhood just north of Tampa, and it has one of the most challenging environments for home exteriors in the area. The lake’s proximity keeps the air humid. The mature trees keep the surfaces shaded. And Tampa’s rainy season hits hard every year from June through September. That combination means algae, mold, and grime build up faster here than most homeowners expect.
Pink Flamingo Power Wash provides pressure washing services throughout Lake Magdalene and knows exactly what these conditions do to a home’s exterior.
House Washing
Many houses in Lake Magdalene have one or two sides that get almost no direct sun. Those shaded sections stay damp after rain and develop algae quickly. The north-facing wall of a house in this neighborhood can go from clean to visibly green in a single season. House washing removes all of it. We pre-treat problem areas, then wash the full exterior of the home. The difference is usually dramatic.
We clean stucco, vinyl siding, and brick. Each surface needs different pressure settings. We know the difference and adjust accordingly.
Soft Wash Roof Cleaning
The lake moisture in Lake Magdalene contributes to faster algae growth on roofs than you see in neighborhoods that are farther from the water. Black streaks spread across shingles quietly over months and years. By the time a homeowner calls us, half the roof is usually affected. Soft wash roof cleaning uses a low-pressure application of a cleaning solution to kill algae and remove staining without damaging the shingles. It is the only safe method for asphalt shingle roofs.
Gutter Cleaning
This is the most common call we get from Lake Magdalene homeowners, especially in the spring before the rainy season. Clogged gutters overflow during Tampa’s heavy summer storms. When they overflow, water runs down the side of the house, stains the exterior walls, and can cause fascia board rot and foundation issues over time. We clean gutters, flush downspouts, and verify flow before we leave. For homes under a heavy tree canopy, we recommend cleaning two to three times a year.
Pool Deck and Pool Cage Cleaning
Pool decks in Lake Magdalene get slippery with algae quickly due to the ambient humidity near the lake. A pool deck that looks clean can have a thin layer of algae on it that becomes a serious slip hazard when wet. We clean concrete, paver, and travertine pool decks. We also clean the aluminum pool cage frames and screen panels that surround most pools in the Tampa area.
Driveway Pressure Washing
Lake Magdalene driveways under tree cover go green and develop moss faster than those in open sun. Driveway pressure washing removes the organic growth, dirt, and staining. We use a rotary surface cleaner for even results and pre-treat oil and rust stains before washing for better removal.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should Lake Magdalene homeowners clean their gutters?
Two to three times a year for most homes. Once in late spring before the rainy season, once in mid-summer, and once after the heaviest leaf drop in winter.
Will soft washing the roof damage my landscaping?
Not when done correctly. We water down the landscaping before and after treatment. The solution is diluted appropriately, and we are careful around sensitive plants.
Do you clean pool cages in Lake Magdalene?
Yes. We clean pool cage frames and screen panels as part of our pool deck cleaning service or as a standalone job.
