Pressure Washing in Schertz, TX

Serving Schertz · Guadalupe County

Exterior Cleaning for Schertz Homes and Businesses

Schertz sits on the I-35 corridor northeast of San Antonio, and the dirt here follows a pattern. Older streets in Woodland Oaks and Greenshire sit under mature live oaks and pecans. That shade grows green algae on brick and siding, plus black Gloeocapsa magma streaks on shingle roofs. Newer blocks in The Crossvine and Rhine Valley get pale caliche dust off open lots and road work.

Duck Property Care is a pressure washing company based in San Antonio, and Schertz is a short run up I-35. Our house washing and roof work use the soft wash method, which is low pressure and cleaning solutions. Driveways, patios and sidewalks get pressure washing with professional equipment, and estimates are free. Services start at $299, financing is available on larger projects, and you can call or text (512) 905-8038.

Green Algae and Black Roof Streaks on Older Schertz Streets

Schertz grew in waves. Randolph Field opened nearby in 1930, and the town filled in through the 1950s and 1960s. The Fairways at Scenic Hills dates to the mid 1970s, Woodland Oaks to 1984 and Greenshire to the mid 1980s. The trees on those blocks are big now.

Schertz protects them by ordinance. A permit is needed to take down an oak, elm or pecan wider than eight inches across. The shade is worth keeping, and it also holds moisture on north and east walls most of the day. Damp brick, stucco and fiber cement grow a green film that has roots in the surface.

Roofs on those same streets show dark stripes running down the shingles. That is Gloeocapsa magma, an algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. Our roof cleaning uses solution and low pressure so the growth dies at the root. High pressure would strip granules and cut the life of the roof short.

Caliche Dust and Concrete in South Schertz

South Schertz is still filling in. The Crossvine is a master planned community off FM 1518 and Lower Seguin Road. Rhine Valley and Willow Grove grew in around it, and the whole pocket sits close to I-10. TxDOT is widening FM 1518 from FM 78 to I-10, a 5.6 mile job that runs into 2028.

Open lots and road work push pale limestone dust downwind onto everything. It settles into the pores of concrete and dulls a new driveway inside one season. Our driveway and concrete cleaning runs a flat surface cleaner that leaves an even finish across the slab.

The same pass works on sidewalks, patios, pool decks and walkways. Live oak tannin drips leave rust colored spots on light concrete, and detergent plus dwell time brings those up. Oil and tire marks near the garage apron get pretreated first.

Move Out Cleaning Near Randolph Air Force Base

Randolph Air Force Base sits minutes down FM 78 from Schertz and has shaped this town since the 1930s. Schertz Cibolo Universal City ISD runs Purple Star campuses that support military families, including Clemens High School. Military households move on orders, so homes here change hands more often than in a town without a base.

Most of those moves land between May and August, and June and July are the heaviest months. That is also the hottest, dustiest stretch of the Texas year. A house that has to show well in July needs the siding, the concrete and the glass cleaned first.

A move out clean is exterior work on a fixed date. A typical list is a house wash, the driveway, the exterior windows and the gutters. Gutter cleaning matters here because pecan and oak debris packs the troughs and stains the fascia below. We also clean up homes that sat empty through the summer before the next family moves in.

Commercial Pressure Washing Along FM 78 and I-35

Schertz went from about 18,000 people in 2000 to just over 42,000 at the 2020 census. Amazon, Sysco, FedEx and Caterpillar all run operations here, spread across three industrial parks. The city is rebuilding Main Street between Curtiss and Schertz Parkway with new sidewalks and lighting.

Storefronts on FM 78 and the I-35 frontage take road film, diesel soot and hard water spray. Entry concrete collects gum and grease at the doors, and dumpster pads hold whatever leaks. Our commercial pressure washing covers sidewalks, entries, parking areas and drive throughs.

Business property is easier to hold on a schedule than to rescue once a year. We can set a recurring visit that lands outside your busy hours. Estimates for commercial work are free, and financing is available on larger projects.

Schertz FAQ

Questions From Schertz Property Owners

A few of the questions we hear most around Schertz. If yours is not here, call or text and ask.

Call (512) 905-8038

What parts of Schertz do you cover?
All of it. Schertz sits mostly in Guadalupe County and reaches into Bexar and Comal counties. We cover ZIP codes 78154, 78108 and 78132, from Main Street out to The Crossvine and Rhine Valley. Call or text (512) 905-8038.
Why do so many Schertz roofs have black streaks?
The streaks are Gloeocapsa magma, a blue green algae that spreads on humid, shaded roof planes. It feeds on the limestone filler inside asphalt shingles. Soft wash solution kills it at the root and the shingle rinses clean. High pressure would knock granules loose and shorten the life of the roof.
My driveway has looked chalky since the FM 1518 work started. Can that come off?
Usually yes. The pale film is limestone and caliche dust off open lots and road construction. It works into the pores of the slab instead of sitting on top of it. A surface cleaner pass with detergent lifts it and evens out the color.
Can you clean a house before a PCS move out inspection?
Yes. A move out clean is exterior work on a fixed date, so give us the deadline when you call. A common package is a house wash, the driveway, the exterior windows and the gutters. Estimates are free and services start at $299.
What does pressure washing in Schertz cost?
Services start at $299. Price depends on the size of the home, the surfaces involved and how much growth is on them. Estimates are free and financing is available on larger projects. Call or text (512) 905-8038 with your address.
