Pressure washing in Dayton.

Dayton, the Birthplace of Aviation, set along the Great Miami River, sits in a part of Ohio where the climate works hard on driveways, siding, and decks alike. Across roughly 73,068 housing units, 64% of Dayton’s homes are detached single-family houses — each one with siding, soffits, gutters, a driveway, and often a deck or patio that collects the dirt, algae, and mildew our climate produces. With a median resident age around 34, many Dayton households are at the stage of life where protecting and maintaining a home is a priority, and a yearly wash is one of the simplest ways to do it. The numbers above explain why exterior cleaning is such a steady need across Dayton: a large, aging, detached-home stock exposed to Ohio’s full range of weather.
