The Right Time to Clean is After Pollen Season

Spring in Tallahassee means warmer weather, longer days, and heavy pollen. While many homeowners think early spring is the time to schedule exterior cleaning, the most effective and longest-lasting results come after the final major pollen fall. Once pollen season winds down, it’s the ideal time to restore your home’s exterior and get it looking like new for summer.

North Florida’s humidity and tree coverage create the perfect environment for pollen, algae, and mildew buildup. By the end of pollen season, homes across Buck Lake, Killearn, Southwood, Bradfordville, and surrounding areas often have a visible yellow-green film on siding, roofs, patios, and concrete.

A professional exterior cleaning after the final pollen fall helps:

• Remove pollen, algae, and mildew buildup
• Prevent staining and organic growth
• Improve curb appeal before summer
• Extend the life of exterior surfaces
• Keep windows, roofs, and solar panels performing properly

Metal roofs and solar panels collect heavy pollen throughout Tallahassee’s spring season. Once the final pollen drop of spring 2026 occurs, a professional soft wash is critical.

Metal Roof Cleaning: Pollen and organic buildup can trap moisture and lead to staining or premature wear. A proper soft wash removes residue safely and restores appearance.

Solar Panel Cleaning: Pollen buildup reduces solar panel efficiency and output. Cleaning them after the final pollen fall ensures maximum performance heading into peak summer sunlight.
