It really depends on the region of the country you live in as to how often you should have the exterior of your house cleaned. Natural pollutants such as algae, mold, and mildew can collect on surfaces like vinyl, wood, and aluminum siding as well as on stucco and brick.
This type of problem can be more pronounced for a home that is shaded by trees and large shrubbery. The shade causes moisture to be more constant which helps these natural contaminants grow and live. Other pollutants that can collect on your home's exterior are spider webs, bug fecal, and bird droppings.
Some homes are more susceptible to these natural contaminants than others. As said, it depends on the area you live. Having a house cleaning performed followed by an insect treatment around the perimeter of your home can really help eradicate the bug pollutants. Homes in close proximity of a high traffic road or an airport can have exhaust emissions collect on their homes in the form of a grey grime.
The good news is all of these surfaces can be cleaned by a professional house cleaning company to restore your home's appearance. It's a good idea to have your home's exterior cleaned every year or two as maintenance as well as a deck cleaning. This way you have a clean home all the time by not allowing these pollutants to build up.
