OCD Clean uses a range of professional cleaning agents to tackle dirt, mold, and mildew effectively. Our primary solutions include Sodium Hypochlorite or Sodium Percarbonate (oxygen bleach), chosen based on the type of surface, level of staining, and project needs.

• Sodium Hypochlorite is an industry-standard disinfectant and stain remover used for stubborn mold, mildew, and heavy-duty exterior cleaning. We always apply it responsibly and safely, using proper dilution and rinsing techniques. For your home’s exterior, we typically use a diluted solution of about 1% for siding and general house washing, around 3% for roof cleaning, and about 3% for concrete surfaces. This ensures we get excellent cleaning results without using the product at full strength, protecting your surfaces and surrounding areas.

• Sodium Percarbonate (oxygen bleach) is an eco-friendly option that breaks down into oxygen, water, and soda ash, leaving no harmful residues and making it safer for plants, soil, and surrounding areas. This product is mainly used for cedar shake roofs and wooden decking and fences.

Sodium Hypochlorite vs. Oxygenated Cleaners for Exterior Cleaning

Choosing the right cleaning solution is key for safely and effectively removing algae, mold, mildew, and stains from your property’s exterior. Here’s how these common options stack up for different surfaces like roofs, siding, and concrete.

Sodium Hypochlorite

• Pros: Industry-standard solution for exterior cleaning. Highly effective at killing mold, mildew, algae, and moss at the root, providing longer-lasting results. Works well for soft washing asphalt shingles, metal roofs, tile roofs, concrete driveways, walkways, brick, stone, stucco, and vinyl siding. Recommended by ARMA for asphalt shingles when properly diluted.
• Cons: Must be used at the correct dilution to avoid surface damage. Typical final dilution: about 1% for house siding, 3–4% for roofs, and up to 3% for concrete. Requires careful application to protect landscaping and runoff areas.
• Best for: Professional soft washing or pressure washing of all major exterior surfaces: roofs (shingles, metal, tile), siding (vinyl, wood, fiber cement), and hardscape like concrete, stone, and pavers.

Oxygenated Cleaners (Sodium Percarbonate)

• Pros: Eco-friendly alternative that uses oxygen bubbles to lift dirt, algae, and light stains. Safe for delicate areas and plants when used properly. Good option for wood decks, fences, and lightly soiled siding.
• Cons: May not penetrate and kill tough black algae or deeply embedded mold as effectively as sodium hypochlorite. Often requires more scrubbing or repeat applications.
• Best for: Homeowners who prefer a gentler approach for light cleaning on wood, decks, fences, and moderate staining on siding and patios.

Our Recommendation

For most exterior surfaces, a properly diluted sodium hypochlorite soft wash or pressure wash remains the most effective way to safely restore your property’s appearance and help prevent future growth. We tailor our mix ratios for each surface — using about 1% for siding, 3–4% for roofs (asphalt shingles, metal, tile), and up to 3% for concrete — always applied with professional-grade equipment, surfactants for better cling, and thorough rinsing to protect your landscaping.

Every job is done responsibly with the right technique — whether it’s a gentle soft wash for your home’s siding or a deep clean for driveways, patios, or your roof. Your home stays clean, protected, and looking its best, season after season.

Our team uses surface-specific settings to effectively clean surfaces like siding, decks, and driveways—without causing damage.

It’s generally recommended to schedule pressure/soft washing annually. However, the frequency can depend on factors like local climate, surface type, and the amount of dirt and debris build-up.

Absolutely. Our professional team uses the appropriate pressure settings and cleaning solutions for each surface, ensuring that your home is cleaned thoroughly without any damage.

Over time, sunlight and weather break down the outer layer of vinyl siding. This creates a chalky, faded film called oxidation. It makes the colour look dull and can rub off on your hands if you touch it.

We can clean oxidized vinyl, but the process is different from a standard house wash — it requires gentler pressure, special cleaning agents, and careful rinsing to avoid streaks or patchy colour. Cleaning will remove the chalky layer and brighten the siding, but it won’t restore original colour if the vinyl is deeply faded or worn. In severe cases, replacement or painting may be the only way to bring back a like-new look.

We recommend having your concrete professionally cleaned at least once a year to maintain its appearance and prevent damage. However, the frequency may vary based on factors such as local climate, surface type, and the level of dirt and debris accumulation.

We offer two convenient ways to pay:

One-Time Payment: The full amount will be pre-authorized on your credit card before service. Payment is only processed once the work is complete and you’re satisfied.
