From the 1920s bungalows of Oakhurst and Winnona Park to the historic homes of the MAK district, Sunshine Cleaning Service delivers restoration-grade exterior work across Decatur. Proprietary ecoLATUS and ecoTERRA chemistry. RO/DI window filtration. ARMA-approved roof methodology. Family-owned, led by Mark.
Decatur is a city of older, character homes - 1920s and 1930s Craftsman bungalows in Oakhurst, historic homes in the MAK district and Winnona Park, and tree-canopied streets throughout. These homes ask for restraint, not power, and a generic pressure washer in a truck cannot deliver it.
Mark has been on every Decatur job since 2004. No subcontractors. No franchise crews. Every property gets a personal inspection, soft-wash chemistry matched to its specific surfaces, and the hand-detailing that separates a wash from a restoration.
Decatur neighborhoods we serve:
Oakhurst · Winnona Park · MAK Historic District · Great Lakes · Downtown Decatur · Glennwood Estates · Lenox Place
The 1920s and 1930s bungalows that define Oakhurst have original wood siding, single-pane windows, and older roofing. Lowest-pressure soft wash protocol and hand-detailing protect what makes them special.
Historic Decatur homes get specialized, restrained treatment - we never put high pressure on original-era siding and architectural features.
Decatur's mature canopy keeps roofs shaded and damp, growing algae fast and filling gutters. ARMA-approved roof soft wash and frequent gutter clean-outs keep them protected.
Brick and painted-wood homes throughout Winnona Park and Glennwood. ecoLATUS soft wash lifts pollen and algae without eroding mortar or stripping paint.
Modern siding and roofing systems. Low-pressure protocols protect contemporary cladding and manufacturer warranties while RO/DI windows finish spot-free.
Newer infill and renovated homes with modern cladding. Low-pressure protocols protect the finish while RO/DI windows finish spot-free.
Older homes need restraint, not power. Decatur's bungalows and historic homes were built long before modern siding and paint. High pressure strips paint, forces moisture behind cladding, and damages irreplaceable features. We use the lowest-pressure soft wash available.
Tree canopy is a maintenance accelerator. Heavy tree cover drops debris into gutters and shades roof slopes that grow algae faster. Canopy-covered homes need gutters cleared three times a year and roof soft wash on a 24-month cycle rather than 36.
Shade keeps roofs damp. Decatur's dense old trees keep north-facing roof slopes shaded and damp, which feeds algae and moss. Canopy-heavy homes usually need roof soft wash every 24 months rather than 36.
Pollen season hits hard. March through early May, the yellow film coats brick, siding, windows, and decks. Most homeowners hose it off and grind it deeper. Our ecoLATUS chemistry lifts and dissolves it instead.
Red Georgia clay stains everything. Storm runoff carries iron-rich clay across driveways, walkways, and pool decks. Generic pressure washing leaves the orange tint behind. ecoTERRA chemistry breaks the iron bond at the molecular level.
Yes. Older homes need restraint that high-pressure operations cannot deliver. Original-era siding and roofing get our lowest-pressure soft wash protocol and hand-detailing of architectural features.
Pricing depends on home size, surface, and accessibility. Full-property packages (soft wash siding + RO/DI windows + ARMA-approved roof soft wash + gutter restoration + hardscape) fall in a custom-quote range. Request a free quote on the homepage or call (678) 458-6305.
Yes. Original wood siding and older roofing need the lowest-pressure soft wash protocol and hand-detailing - exactly how we treat every Decatur bungalow.
For Decatur, full house soft wash every 12 to 18 months, roof soft wash every 24 to 36 months (covered by our 3-year warranty), driveway pressure wash annually, and gutter cleaning twice to three times a year on tree-heavy lots.
Yes. Our 3-year warranty against algae and moss regrowth on roof soft wash applies to every Decatur residential roof we treat. ARMA-approved methodology kills algae at the root rather than rinsing it off. If algae returns within 36 months, we re-treat at no charge.
Reverse-osmosis and de-ionized water filtration removes all dissolved minerals before the water touches your windows. The result is spot-free pure water that rinses windows, frames, and screens completely without leaving streaks, watermarks, or mineral residue. It is the same technology high-end commercial buildings rely on.
