CaPow
Sitting down in the Fox River valley is lovely and hard on the outside of a house. Damp air, heavy tree cover and shade mean algae arrives early and stays. It comes off properly with a soft wash, not a blast.

Dirt is not permanent. Algae eats your roof, grime ages your siding, and green film makes good wood look finished. One afternoon undoes all of it.

Low pressure, high results. Safely lifts algae, dirt and cobwebs off siding, brick and stucco without forcing water behind the panels. Exterior window cleaning can be added to any house wash.
from $200
Driveways, sidewalks and patios cleaned edge to edge with a surface cleaner, so you get an even finish instead of wand stripes.

Roof cleaning done the safe way. Kills the black streaks at the root with a gentle, no damage soft wash that protects your shingles instead of stripping them.
Those black streaks are living algae. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and traps moisture against the roof, so it eats away at your shingles and materials until it is killed off.
from $149
Brings grey, weathered wood and composite back to its real colour. The right prep before you stain or seal.
$149 - $249
Debris flushed out so water actually flows, plus we take off those ugly black tiger stripes on the gutter faces.

CaPow is Caleb: fully equipped, professionally trained on every surface he touches, and genuinely proud of the work. Neighbors mention the same things over and over. He takes his time, moves the patio furniture, rolls the hoses back up, and treats your property like his own.
He booked a Memorial Day house wash and quoted the neighbor while he was at it. That is the kind of service you get.
Millbrook sits low, close to the water, under a lot of mature tree cover. Every one of those is a reason algae gets a foothold. Damp air overnight, shade most of the day, and leaf litter holding moisture against the surface. Houses here go green noticeably faster than ones up on open ground a few miles away.
Roofs take the worst of it. The black streaking on a shingle roof is living algae feeding on the limestone filler in the shingle, holding damp against it and shortening the life of the roof. Rinsing does nothing, because you have to kill the growth rather than move it. That is a low pressure soft wash with the right mix, not a pressure washer on a roof.
The same treatment handles the green on shaded siding and the slick film on decks and patios facing the water. Done properly it stays clean far longer than a straight rinse ever does.

Click and drag across the deck to power wash it clean. Yes, it is this satisfying in real life too.

Very professional, diligent, honest, fast and thorough. Caleb and his staff are great! I'm a busy mom, so the one thing that stood out for me is that I didn't really have to do anything, everything is as promised. Gave good advice and made sure we were taken care of. My house looks so much brighter! Plus his prices are unbeatable, I've shopped around. I love supporting local businesses!
The crew arrived on schedule and explained exactly what they were going to do. About 90 minutes later my house looked great. The gutters and siding were white again after years of mold and mildew. The porch was cleaned of years of dirt buildup. Excellent work at a fair price.
CaPow did an AWESOME job power washing our house which was covered in dust and dirt due to nearby construction. They were very careful around my plants and ensured no harm would come to them, or he said he'd buy me new ones! Very thorough, friendly and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend!
An outstanding experience. Caleb power washed my home, deck and concrete pad in Yorkville and the work was excellent. Right on time, extremely polite, incredible attention to detail. Pricing was transparent, fair, and worth every penny. I will definitely be hiring him again.
Great job, Caleb did not mess around. He got it done fast and did it right. He even moved the patio furniture for me because I was at work. Thank you.

JjohnStraight answers, no sales pitch. Still unsure? Call or text Caleb on (815) 640-1705 and ask him directly.
Position, mostly. Down in the river valley you get damp air, shade and tree cover, which is exactly what algae needs. A house on open ground a few miles north dries out every day and stays clean far longer.
A pressure washer on a shingle roof is not safe and it is not what happens here. Roofs get a low pressure soft wash that kills the algae chemically, so the granules stay on the shingles where they belong. Roof work is quoted per job.
Eventually, because the spores are in the air everywhere. But a soft wash kills the growth at the root rather than just knocking the surface off, so it stays clean far longer than a rinse. Most people here are on a two to three year cycle.
Yes. Deck and fence washing starts at $149. River facing timber picks up a slick green film that makes it genuinely slippery, and that is worth dealing with before someone goes over.
Yes, Millbrook village and the properties out along the river and Fox Road. Access is rarely a problem, and Caleb brings his own water so there is nothing to connect.
Three quick steps. Caleb gets your request by email right away and gets back to you fast. You get a copy too.
