A retail exterior stops looking cared for when algae and other organic growth creep across the facade, and across St. Charles County, the hot, humid summers keep that growth coming back on shaded, north-facing walls. We remove it with a low-pressure, surface-appropriate soft wash from MidWest SoftWash, the same process we use on full commercial buildings. When your storefront needs that attention, call us at (636) 244-1024.
We clean storefronts and the facades around them, matching the same soft-wash process to whatever kind of retail property you manage.
We soft-wash a single storefront’s exterior and facade from top to bottom, matching the solution to the surface it sits on. Brick, stucco, and painted finishes each take a different mix, and we dial it to yours.
A larger center uses the same soft-wash process as our building washing, scaled up to the whole property. We price it as a custom commercial quote once we see the square footage and its condition.
For a strip mall, we work the storefront facades along the row with one consistent soft-wash process. Every unit ends up looking like it belongs to the same well-kept property.
Once the facade is clean, we can add exterior glass cleaning to the same visit. We use a carbon-fiber water-fed pole fitted with a purified-water brush head, fed by our truck's reverse-osmosis filtering system. The glass dries spot-free and streak-free, no squeegee needed. The crew scrubs in two passes, gives it a light rinse, then walks the glass, looking for spots or streaks and touching them up. If you notice spotting a day or two later, we come back and fix it. This is exterior glass only, and we do not remove hard-water or mineral staining.
Here is what you get when you hand us a storefront.
We clean your facade at low pressure with professional SoftWash Systems solutions, matched to the surface in front of us. The solution does the cleaning, not the pressure. Our power washer stays on a separate truck and never touches a soft-wash surface. Many companies say “soft wash” but still reach for a pressure washer; we don’t.
We are an authorized SoftWash Systems company, and that is not a logo on the truck. Every technician completes 40 hours of certification training before working on a property, and our team logs at least 60 credit hours of ongoing training every year. The person running the soft wash on your storefront is trained in exactly that method.
We carry auto, general liability, workers’ compensation, and umbrella coverage. The certificate of insurance, W-9, and a signed contract or MSA are ready before the first visit. We respond to RFPs and work from written scopes. Your approval process isn’t held up waiting on us to send documents.
Reach out by call, text, or email, and we come to you. We walk the property with you, note the real conditions, and set honest expectations about what the wash will do. Then we measure every surface and send a written, line-itemed estimate with a digital copy for your records.
Once you approve the services, we get the insurance certificate, tax paperwork, and signed contract squared away before any work starts. We schedule a specific day, typically within two weeks depending on the season. A confirmation email follows, covering the date, time, services, price, and any prep reminders.
The crew calls about 30 minutes ahead so no one is caught off guard. When they arrive, they introduce themselves and walk the scope with you before touching anything, so everyone agrees on what to clean.
Before a drop of solution goes on, we set up plant and property protection around the storefront, covering the landscaping and anything else that needs it. The lead technician then pre-inspects the facade so the crew knows exactly what they are working with.
We apply the wash with our SoftWash Systems blend module, dialed to your surface. We use professional-grade soaps, keep pressure low, and never let a power washer touch the facade. We bring in ladders and commercial-grade equipment as the building requires them, and the crew works the property in the right order.
When the work is done, we walk the finished property with you or your property manager. You get timestamped photo documentation, pre-inspection, during, and after, sent by photo link, plus status updates on whatever cadence you prefer, daily to weekly. The invoice follows the walk-around, and commercial terms are typically net-30.
A storefront looks its best when it is cleaned on a schedule instead of only when the grime gets obvious. Our Maintenance Plans keep your property on a set cadence, planned in advance and built around what your storefront actually needs. You are not the one remembering to book it. Ask about the plan when you get your estimate.
Storefront cleaning is quoted per property, so there is no flat published rate. We price by square footage or by project, depending on the size and condition of your facade. The quote itself is free, done in person, and broken out line by line so you can see what each part of the job costs before you approve anything.
Yes. Our crew works after hours, on weekends, and early mornings for commercial properties when the job calls for it. We have started jobs as early as 3 a.m. to stay out of a business’s way. We set the exact timing with you when we build your estimate.
Your estimate is free and done on site: we come out, walk your retail property, measure every surface, and put it all in writing. Wherever your storefront sits in St. Charles County, we will get you on the schedule from there. Call MidWest SoftWash at (636) 244-1024, and we will set up your walk-through.
