New construction wash and driveway cleaning in Atlanta, GA

What we found and what we did

A before and after comparison shot - the difference is stark for this Atlanta, GA new Construction wash. Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After Before After What we found and what we did In July 2026 we completed a new construction wash across a multi-home development in Atlanta, GA. This was a large commercial job covering four surfaces at every unit: the exterior siding, concrete driveways and walkways, and the wood porch and rear decks.

A new construction wash is a pre-delivery clean for builders and property managers. Every exterior surface on the property gets attention in one visit, so each home shows the way it should before a homeowner ever moves in. Get a free estimate .

Construction sites leave a specific kind of mess, and this one was no different:

House washing was the first priority. The homes had a mix of vinyl siding and board-and-batten in several colors, and every exterior got a low-pressure sodium-hypochlorite soft wash to clear the construction dust and surface grime. On a freshly built home, the low-pressure approach is the whole point: high pressure against fresh caulk lines or new window seals is how a cleaning turns into a repair.

The concrete block foundations had visible rust staining where rebar moisture had wicked through the block. A sodium-hypochlorite house wash won't touch rust, so those sections got a separate oxalic-acid application to pull the staining without etching the block face.

The concrete driveways and walkways throughout the development had the rust and clay staining you expect from a site that's been active for months. Our process on the flatwork:

The clay had tinted the entire surface uniformly enough that it just looked like a dirty pour — until the water hit it. The before-and-after contrast on the driveways was the most significant of the whole job.

Red Georgia clay doesn't just sit on top of fresh concrete. Months of equipment and foot traffic grind it into the surface, which is why it takes a surface cleaner, not a rinse, to bring a slab back to its poured color.
