— FRANKLIN-SPECIFIC EXPERTISE
Why Franklin Homes Need Different Care
Franklin isn’t a single market. It’s Civil War-era brick on West Main, master-planned HOA communities off Mack Hatcher, and new construction Hardie-and-stone combos along Carothers Parkway — each requiring a completely different approach to pressure washing.
Historic District Sensitivity
Downtown Franklin’s historic brick homes and Civil War-era properties require period-appropriate restoration chemistry — never the aggressive pressure used on modern construction. High PSI on 130-year-old mortar is irreversible.
Master-Planned HOA Standards
Westhaven, Laurelbrooke, Fieldstone Farms, and Ladd Park all carry strict architectural-review covenants. One dirty facade gets a letter within weeks. Our $5M COI and documented low-pressure methodology satisfy ARC requirements.
Hardie + Stone Combinations

What’s Damaging Franklin Homes Right Now
From historic mortar to Westhaven Hardie siding, these are the six problems we treat most often across Franklin neighborhoods.
Historic Brick Mortar Efflorescence
Westhaven Hardie Algae Streaks
Hardie plank siding in Westhaven and McKay’s Mill accumulates green and black algae streaks from irrigation overspray and humidity off the open green spaces. Soft-wash chemistry eliminates the growth without voiding the fiber cement warranty.
Cultured Stone Green Mildew
Slate & Shake Roof Moss
Travertine & Limestone Pool Deck Staining
Paver Patio Weed & Sand Erosion

Services We Provide in Franklin
Every service below is calibrated for Forest Hills’ estate substrates — natural stone, slate, hand-laid brick, and luxury hardscaping. No generic residential contractor approach.
House Washing
Soft-wash exterior cleaning for Hardie plank, brick, stucco, and vinyl. Safe for all Franklin siding types including historic masonry. Kills algae, mold, and mildew at the root.
Driveway & Concrete Cleaning
Concrete driveway and sidewalk cleaning with surface-cleaner heads for even results. Oil, tire marks, algae, and staining removed without surface etching or joint damage.
Roof Cleaning
ARMA-compliant no-pressure soft wash for asphalt shingle, shake, slate, and metal roofs. Eliminates black algae (Gloeocapsa magma), moss, and lichen without voiding manufacturer warranties.
Driveway Sealing
Penetrating sealer application for concrete and paver driveways after cleaning. Blocks oil, UV damage, and freeze-thaw cracking. Extends driveway life significantly in Franklin’s clay-soil conditions.
Gutter Cleaning
Full interior flush and downspout clearing for Franklin’s heavy oak and Bradford pear canopy. Includes exterior brightening to remove black oxidation streaks. Prevents fascia rot and foundation drainage issues.
Travertine & Stone Cleaning
Low-pressure soft wash and penetrating sealer for travertine, limestone, and natural stone pool decks, patios, and walkways. pH-neutral chemistry protects the calcium carbonate structure throughout the process.

— OUR METHOD
The 5-Step Franklin Pressure Washing Process
Every Franklin job follows a documented protocol — from HOA pre-approval to post-service documentation. No shortcuts, no generic spray-and-go.
Property Assessment & Surface ID
We walk every surface before touching the equipment. Historic masonry, Hardie plank, cultured stone, natural stone — each gets a different chemical profile and pressure setting. We photograph existing condition and flag any pre-existing damage before we begin.
HOA Coordination & Pre-Approval
For Westhaven, Laurelbrooke, Fieldstone Farms, and Ladd Park, we provide our $5M COI and a written scope of work to your HOA management company on request. We’ve cleaned homes in master-planned communities across Franklin and know what ARC committees require.
Surface-Specific Pre-Treatment
Biological growth receives a dilute sodium hypochlorite pre-soak with dwell time calibrated to the surface. Historic brick gets an alkaline mortar-safe chemistry — never acid. Hardie plank receives a surfactant-based soft-wash mix at low concentration. Each surface gets exactly what it needs.
Low-Pressure Application & Rinse
We use soft-wash systems operating at 60–500 PSI for delicate surfaces and surface cleaners at calibrated pressure for concrete and pavers. Rinse is thorough and directional — we protect landscaping, windows, and adjacent surfaces throughout. No chemical or rinse water enters storm drains.
Before & After Documentation
Time-stamped photos of every surface treated. You receive a complete before/after photo report and a written service summary. For travertine and sealing jobs, documentation includes product name, application date, and recommended maintenance schedule.
— WHY IT MATTERS IN FRANKLIN
Franklin Has Two Different Markets
Historic downtown properties need the restraint of a restoration specialist — not a power washing truck.
HOA master-planned neighborhoods require documentation, insurance, and ARC compliance — not just a clean result.
New construction Hardie-and-stone combos require four different cleaning protocols in a single visit.
We’ve cleaned 150+ Franklin homes across all three property types. We know the neighborhoods, the substrates, and the covenants.

— METHOD COMPARISON
Generic Contractor vs. PWD In Franklin
Most Franklin-adjacent pressure washing companies treat every home the same. Franklin homes are not the same. Here’s the difference that shows up on your property.
GENERIC COMPANY • City-Wide Contractor Approach
One pressure setting for every surface — historic brick, Hardie plank, cultured stone, and travertine all get the same PSI
No knowledge of Westhaven or Laurelbrooke HOA requirements — no COI documentation, no ARC compliance
No distinction between historic downtown mortar chemistry and new construction cleaning protocols
No pre-treatment for biological growth — just pressure and speed. Growth returns in months, not years
No photo documentation — no record of pre-existing damage, no proof of work quality
No understanding of why Ladd Park and Laurelbrooke homes under heavy tree canopy need annual service
THE PWD APPROACH • Neighborhood-by-Neighborhood Expertise
Four separate chemical profiles and pressure settings for Hardie plank, brick, cultured stone, and natural stone on a single property
$5M COI, written scope of work, and documented low-pressure methodology provided to HOA ARC on request
Historic downtown brick cleaned with mortar-safe alkaline chemistry — no acid, no high pressure, no permanent damage
Biological pre-treatment with calibrated dwell time — kills algae and mold to the root, not just the surface
Time-stamped before/after photo documentation delivered with every job
Proactive maintenance recommendations by neighborhood — we know which Franklin streets need annual service vs. every 18 months
— CLIENT VOICES
Franklin Homeowners on the Difference
“Our Westhaven home sits under three enormous oaks. Algae was coming back every 14 months no matter who we hired. PWD treated it differently and it’s held 24 months so far.”
“We own a historic home on West Main. We needed brick cleaned without damaging 130-year-old mortar. PWD used the correct low-pressure chemistry and the results were beautiful — the downtown preservation committee would have approved.”
