The Hidden Costs of a Dirty Exterior
Don’t Let Dirt Drain Your Home’s Value
A neglected exterior can do more damage than you think. Here’s how dirt, mold, and buildup quietly cost you money — and how routine cleaning prevents expensive repairs.
1. Curb Appeal Affects Home Value
A clean exterior can increase perceived home value by up to 10% during sale or appraisal.
2. Dirt and Grime Lead to Long-Term Damage
Algae, mildew, and grime break down materials and may cause permanent staining or decay.
3. Energy Efficiency Takes a Hit
Dirty windows block light. Clogged gutters can worsen insulation and airflow issues.
4. Pests Love a Dirty Exterior
Insects and rodents thrive in buildup. Cleaning removes nests and hiding spots.
5. Prevention Is Cheaper Than Repair
A bi-annual cleaning plan helps you avoid major repair bills from long-term neglect.
