Fort Wayne Exterior Cleaning Project: Algae-Covered Home Brought Back to Life

At BINWILD, we recently had the opportunity to perform a full house wash for a homeowner in Fort Wayne, Indiana who was dealing with a significant buildup of organic growth. The home’s siding, and gutter lines had become heavily discolored, with green algae and mildew visible across nearly every side—particularly on the north-facing walls where moisture tends to linger the longest.

The homeowner reached out after noticing the exterior of their home had lost its curb appeal and was beginning to look neglected. Like many homeowners, they wanted to protect their investment and avoid long-term damage caused by algae, mold, and mildew. Left untreated, this type of organic growth can slowly deteriorate siding materials, shorten the life of exterior paint, and even create air quality issues when it begins to penetrate into the structure.

Using our soft washing process, we applied a safe but powerful biodegradable cleaning solution that breaks down and kills the organic matter at the root—without using high pressure that can damage siding. After allowing the treatment to dwell, we thoroughly rinsed the entire exterior with low pressure to reveal a dramatically cleaner surface.

The transformation was immediate. What was once a dull green-covered home is now bright, clean, and refreshed—just in time for summer gatherings and backyard fun. More importantly, the homeowner now has peace of mind knowing their siding is protected from premature wear and further organic buildup for months to come.

This type of routine exterior cleaning not only boosts curb appeal but also acts as a preventative maintenance service, preserving the life of your home’s exterior and helping to avoid more costly repairs down the line.

If your home in Fort Wayne or the surrounding area is showing signs of green algae, mildew, or other organic staining, BINWILD is here to help. Our professional house washing service will restore your home’s beauty and protect your investment—without the risk of damage.

(Note: The dead organic growth on the roof takes a few days to fully wash away)
