Spring brings blooming flowers, longer days, and—for many of us—itchy eyes, sneezing, and runny noses. That yellow-green dust you see coating your deck, patio, driveway, or siding? That’s pollen—and it's one of the biggest triggers for seasonal allergies.
If you're spending time outside and feel like you’re still stuck in allergy season, your outdoor surfaces might be to blame.
The Pollen Problem: More Than Just a Nuisance
The Pollen Problem: More Than Just a Nuisance
Pollen and other airborne allergens don’t just float in the breeze. They settle on every surface around your home or business—porches, walkways, patio furniture, even your roof. When disturbed by wind, pets, or foot traffic, those particles get kicked back into the air, triggering allergy symptoms all over again.
And it's not just pollen—mold spores, mildew, and dust mites also thrive in the moist, shaded areas of your outdoor space, especially after a rainy spring.
Why Pressure Cleaning Makes a Difference
Why Pressure Cleaning Makes a Difference
Pressure cleaning is one of the most effective ways to get rid of built-up pollen and allergens. At PowerSoft, we use professional-grade equipment to:
- Wash away layers of pollen from decks, patios, sidewalks, and siding
- Remove mold and mildew from shaded areas like driveways and stairways
- Clean outdoor furniture and other high-contact areas safely and thoroughly
- Improve curb appeal while helping you breathe easier
You’d be surprised how much grime and irritants can build up in just a few weeks. A professional pressure cleaning not only freshens up your space—it also contributes to a healthier environment for your family, customers, or guests.

Right now. Early-to-mid May is prime time for pollen in many parts of the country, and waiting too long lets it settle deeper into porous surfaces. A seasonal cleaning now means you can enjoy your outdoor spaces all summer without the constant allergy flare-ups.
