Get The Best House Washing In Tennessee
Murfreesboro is two towns in one. Around the historic downtown Square stand brick homes that have weathered a century of Tennessee summers, and out toward Blackman and Siegel the growth adds new streets of vinyl and fiber-cement every season. Both halves fight the same weather: humid air, moisture drifting off the Stones River, a heavy spring pollen film, and deep shade under the mature hardwoods in the established neighborhoods. The result is familiar everywhere in town — green algae claiming the north side, mildew streaking the siding, brick slowly darkening under a layer of grime. American Pressure Washing's soft wash takes all of it off the careful way: professional detergents and low pressure, safe for a hundred-year-old brick facade and a five-year-old painted finish alike.
We're veteran-owned, with our office in Franklin — 725 Cool Springs Blvd, Suite 600 — and rated 5.0 stars from 176 Google reviews. Owner Dallas Matthews has been cleaning exteriors since 1983, and American Pressure Washing has served Murfreesboro since 2002. We know what this town is built from — soft historic mortar downtown, Hardie board and vinyl in the new growth, stone accents in between — and we wash each surface the way that surface needs.
Soft washing — the method that fits a town of old and new
Raw pressure is the wrong tool on most of what Murfreesboro is made of. High pressure can scar soft historic mortar, force water behind vinyl and fiber-cement laps, streak paint, and etch brick faces that have stood for generations. Soft washing replaces force with chemistry: detergents loosen and kill algae, mildew, and pollen film at the root, and a gentle rinse carries everything away. The clean goes deeper than a blast-and-go wash, and it stays clean longer. It's the right method for:
- Brick and mortar — including older, softer brick and mortar near downtown, cleaned without scarring the joints
- Vinyl siding — washed without forcing water behind the laps
- Fiber-cement (Hardie board) and painted surfaces — no streaking, no lifted paint
- Stone accents, trim, soffits, and shutters
Landscaping gets the same respect as the house. Established Murfreesboro lots carry mature plantings, and newer lots carry young ones still settling in — either way, everything green is pre-wetted before we begin, delicate plantings are shielded where needed, and the whole property is rinsed down before we leave.
Shade, river air, and the green north side
Murfreesboro's established neighborhoods sit under some of the biggest tree canopy in Rutherford County, and the Stones River keeps the low ground humid. Shade plus moisture is exactly the recipe algae follows, which is why the north and east sides of Murfreesboro homes green up first and why shaded brick holds dark mildew streaks long after the sunny faces look fine. A soft wash on a regular rhythm — every year or two for most homes, yearly for the shaded elevations that stay damp — keeps the growth from ever getting ahead of the house. Catch it early and each wash is gentler than the last; the siding, the mortar, and the paint all last longer for it.

House washing FAQs — Murfreesboro
Is soft washing safe for older brick and mortar?
Yes — it's the method we'd choose for it. What damages old brick is pressure blasting at the mortar joints and the brick face. Our detergents and low-pressure rinse clean the surface without scarring either, which is why we use the same approach on historic-era homes near the Square.
Our home is in one of Murfreesboro's newer neighborhoods — when should it first be washed?
Within the first year or two is the sweet spot. Construction dust, pollen, and early algae show up fast on new homes in the Blackman and Siegel growth areas, and soft washing is safe for new siding and paint once cured.
How often does a Murfreesboro home need washing?
Every 12–24 months for most homes. Houses under heavy shade or near the river's low, damp ground grow algae faster and sometimes benefit from a yearly wash on the shaded side alone.
Do you wash rental homes and landlord properties?
Yes. We wash owner-occupied and rental homes alike across Murfreesboro, including the neighborhoods around MTSU, and landlords often schedule us between tenants so the property shows clean for the next listing.
How much does house washing cost in Murfreesboro?
It depends on the size of the home, the surfaces involved, and how much buildup we're removing. Quotes are fast, free, and exact — americanpressurewashing.com/fast-free-quote or (615) 925-1029 — with no pressure to book.
