Silvertip Wash Co. is a professional exterior cleaning company serving Calgary, AB and the surrounding communities. Wind, intense sun, and the freeze-thaw cycle push dirt and oxidation deep into siding over time, dulling the color and degrading the surface in ways a quick rinse won’t fix. Every house wash we do covers the siding, exterior of the gutters, soffits, window frames, and doors. We run a gas pressure washer with a diesel heater that delivers hot water at low pressure, because heat breaks down oxidation more effectively than force. We close every wash with a reverse osmosis purified rinse that removes minerals and sediment from the water itself, leaving the surface to dry spot-free and streak-free.
What makes this more than a standard pressure wash is the process behind it. After the heated rinse, we apply specialized detergents to break down long-term oxidation and embedded seasonal buildup, then hand scrub every single panel using a soft natural hair brush on a water-fed pole. That physical agitation is the step most crews skip, and it’s the reason our results look different. Whether your home has vinyl siding, Hardie board, or stucco, we adjust our technique to suit the material so the cleaning is thorough without putting the surface at risk.
Calgary weather can shift quickly, and if conditions become unsafe on your service day we’ll reach out and adjust. We also need access to an exterior water hookup since we don’t bring water on site; we confirm that during the quote.
When you submit an inquiry through our website, we’re notified right away and respond quickly. We ask a few targeted questions upfront to confirm your home type and whether you’re looking at oxidation removal or a maintenance wash before we schedule the visit.
We assess square footage, stories and architecture, side access, and the severity of oxidation and embedded buildup in person. For restoration work, those details change the job enough that guessing over the phone doesn’t serve you well.
Once you approve the quote, we lock in a date and Jobber handles communication from there, including a day-before service notification so you know exactly when to expect us.
We do a quick site check on arrival before any equipment comes on. All plants and landscaping are watered down before the wash begins and again after it’s complete so runoff doesn’t sit on your garden.
We walk the exterior looking for holes or damaged siding and review anything we find with you before proceeding. Openings can be covered with clear Gorilla Tape to prevent water from getting behind the panels during the wash.
Our gas unit with the diesel heater runs a heated low-pressure rinse across the full exterior, using hot water to begin breaking down surface dirt and oxidation on contact without relying on pressure to do the work.
We apply specialized detergents designed to break down long-term oxidation, surface grime, and deeply embedded seasonal buildup from years of sun, wind, and moisture exposure. This is the layer a basic rinse can’t touch.
Every panel gets hand scrubbed using a soft natural hair brush on a water-fed pole. The brush lifts embedded debris that the detergent has loosened but not fully released, which is exactly the step that chemical-only methods skip.
A thorough hot water rinse clears away everything we’ve loosened, followed by the reverse osmosis purified rinse for a spot-free, streak-free result. We notify you when we’re done, offer a walkaround, leave a coupon and referral cards, send the invoice, and follow up with a happy call within 4 to 5 days to confirm full satisfaction.
Every house wash is backed by a 100% satisfaction guarantee. The optional walkaround lets you review the work while we’re still on site, and the happy call within 4 to 5 days gives you time to assess the home before we follow up. If something isn’t right, we address it. We also carry over $2 million in insurance coverage, so your property is protected from the start.
Oxidation removal is a restoration-focused process designed to break down long-term oxidation and embedded grime, not just rinse off surface dust. We use heated low pressure, specialized detergents, and panel-by-panel hand scrubbing to restore the siding’s appearance more thoroughly.
No. Our heated setup helps us clean better at lower pressure, which is safer for siding than relying on high pressure. We also hand scrub with soft brushes to lift buildup without forcing it off with harsh pressure.
Our full house wash includes the siding, soffits, the exterior of the gutters, window frames, and doors. This gives the entire exterior a consistent, cleaned finish instead of leaving trim and detail areas behind.
If we find holes or openings, we can cover them with clear Gorilla Tape to help prevent water from getting behind the siding. We’ll go over any vulnerable areas with you before we proceed.
We aim to use eco-friendly products, and we protect landscaping by watering plants before and after washing so runoff doesn’t sit on them. Most concerns we hear are about plants, and this step is part of our routine.
Yes. At this time we don’t bring water onsite, so we typically need access to an exterior water hookup. If you’re unsure about your setup, we’ll confirm what’s needed during the quote.
Most house washes take about 4 to 8 hours depending on the home’s size, height, architecture, and how severe the oxidation and buildup is. We’ll set expectations during your quote so you know what to expect on service day.
Yes. When you bundle a house wash with a window wash, you receive 10% off, and when you bundle house wash + window wash + gutter cleaning, you receive 15% off. We’ll confirm the best package option during your quote.
Yes. Service plan savings are available, including $100 off quarterly plans, $50 off biannual plans, and $150 off monthly plans. We can recommend a plan based on your home and how quickly buildup returns.
Calgary conditions can change quickly, and safety always comes first for both your property and our crew. If weather creates unsafe working conditions, we’ll communicate with you and adjust timing as needed.
If your home has been through a few Calgary seasons without a proper restoration wash, our heated soft washing process, panel-by-panel hand scrubbing, and reverse osmosis purified finish are built to handle the oxidation and embedded buildup that collects on local exteriors. We cover the full facade as standard, serve Calgary and the surrounding area including Okotoks and De Winton, and bundling a house wash with window cleaning and gutter cleaning brings 15% off, which makes scheduling everything together the practical call.
