pollen on house siding in Pine Mountain

In Pine Mountain, this comes up on Callaway-side cottages, guest houses, and shaded second homes. Pines and hardwoods feed algae on roofs that do not see full sun. Pine and oak season coats everything. Booking the wash for the week after the heaviest drop beats booking the middle of it.

Owners are often somewhere else. The house still has to look kept when they drive up.

Pollen is dust. A rinse takes it off horizontal surfaces and off siding, until the next afternoon. Charging soft-wash prices to remove only pollen is something we will not do. If you call in April and the house is yellow, we will ask whether there is growth under it. Photos tell the truth.

Pollen on a wet chemical mix makes a paste. We would rather schedule around the worst week than fight it. That is a practical limit, not a delay for its own sake.

The film that remains after pollen season — green in the shade, black on the roof — is the actual job. Pollen did not cause it. Pollen just made the month look worse.

The full explanation, without the town attached, is the pollen is not a reason for a full soft wash article. The town does not change the chemistry. It changes the houses, the shade, and the clay.
