House Washing, Roof Cleaning and Pressure Washing in McHenry, IL

McHenry is our home turf. Lakemoor shares the 60051 zip code with it, so a McHenry job is ten minutes from our shop, and we are in town most weeks from March to November. Homes along the Fox River and the Chain O'Lakes, and the shaded lots near Moraine Hills, grow algae on the north side of the siding faster than anywhere else we work.

Our work in McHenry

Since we started photographing every job in spring 2025, our crew has documented 49 jobs in McHenry, 34 in Lakemoor and 6 in Johnsburg. That makes it one of our two busiest areas, which makes sense: it is the closest to our shop.

The homes along the Fox River and the channels off the Chain O'Lakes are the ones we wash every year. River air keeps the siding damp, docks and boat ramps grow algae, and the spider webs are back by the next summer. Away from the water most of the newer homes are vinyl, and a wash every couple of years keeps them clean.

Questions from McHenry homeowners

Do you serve all of McHenry and Lakemoor?

Yes. Both zip codes, 60050 and 60051, plus Johnsburg, Holiday Hills and Bull Valley next door.

How fast can you come out in McHenry?

Type your address on the quote page and your quote is on screen in seconds. Most McHenry washes are booked within one to two weeks in season.

My house is on the water. Does that change anything?

Waterfront homes green up faster and collect spider webs. We see it every week on the Chain O'Lakes, and the soft wash handles both.

Do you clean docks and boat ramps in McHenry?

Yes. They are concrete-surface work for us, cleaned with a surface cleaner, and usually added to a house wash.

How often do Fox River homes need washing?

Most want it every year. The river keeps the siding damp, and the green and the webs come back by the next summer.

Do I need to be home?

Usually not. We need an outdoor spigot and access to the areas being cleaned. We text before we arrive and do a final walk-around with you if you are there.

When do I pay?

If you are home, after we walk around the property with you and you give us the OK. If nobody will be home, we take payment ahead of time, or you can leave a check out for us before we start. Nothing is charged when you book.
