Driveways, stucco, and the orange well-water rust stains every Lehigh homeowner knows — treated and cleaned the right way.
Lehigh Acres homes get dirty differently than homes on the coast. There is no salt spray out here — instead there is well water, and the iron in it leaves the signature orange rust stripes on driveways, sidewalks, fences, and stucco wherever the sprinklers reach. Add Florida humidity feeding algae across big, often shaded lots, and a home can look ten years older than it is without a single thing being wrong with it.
Both problems have specific fixes, and neither one is "more pressure." Rust staining is chemical — it needs a dedicated treatment that dissolves the iron deposits before the surface is cleaned, or it simply stays. Algae is biological — it needs a solution that kills the growth at the root, or it grows back within weeks of a plain water blast. We treat first, then clean: driveways and concrete with a surface cleaner for an even, stripe-free finish, and stucco walls, soffits, and screens with low-pressure soft washing that cleans without pitting or cracking.
We work across all of Lehigh Acres — from the established streets off Lee Boulevard and Homestead Road to the newer sections out past Sunshine Boulevard, plus Buckingham and Alva next door. A typical driveway cleaning runs $150-$300 and a full house wash $250-$450; combining services in one visit is the most economical way to book, and it is how most of our Lehigh customers schedule.
Lehigh is also one of the most active rental and investment markets in Lee County, and we regularly handle turnover and pre-sale cleanings for owners and property managers — full exterior, photo-documented, scheduled around your listing or lease date.

Big lots, well water, and Florida sun — the exact combination that stains driveways and greens up stucco. We clean all of Lehigh Acres and the communities around it.
How It Works
We identify the surfaces — concrete driveway, pavers, stucco, pool deck — and map the staining. In Lehigh Acres that almost always includes irrigation rust from well water, which needs chemical treatment, not pressure, to come out.
Rust stains are treated with a dedicated solution that dissolves the iron deposits; algae and mold get a biodegradable pre-treatment that kills growth at the root so it does not return in weeks.
Driveways and walkways are cleaned with a surface cleaner attachment for an even, stripe-free finish. Stucco walls, soffits, and screens are soft washed at low pressure — never blasted.
Everything is rinsed, landscaping is rinsed again, and we walk the property with you. If you are preparing a rental turnover or a sale, we photograph the results for your records.
Common Questions
Yes — this is the most common request we get in Lehigh Acres. Most of the area runs on well water, and the iron in it leaves orange staining wherever sprinklers hit concrete, stucco, or fences. Pressure alone will not remove it; we use a dedicated rust treatment that dissolves the iron deposits, then clean the full surface so the treated spots blend in.
A typical Lehigh Acres driveway runs $150-$300 depending on size and staining; a full house wash typically lands between $250 and $450. Combining services in one visit — driveway, house, gutters — is the most cost-effective way to book. The estimate is free and the quote is the invoice.
Regularly. Lehigh Acres has one of the most active rental and investment markets in Lee County, and a full exterior cleaning is one of the cheapest ways to make a property show well. We work with owners and property managers on single turnovers and recurring schedules, with photo documentation of every job.
Not with a high-pressure wand — stucco pits and cracks under direct pressure. We soft wash stucco walls: a low-pressure application of a biodegradable solution that kills algae and mold at the root, followed by a gentle rinse. Driveways and concrete get real pressure; walls never do.
Once a year covers most homes. Lehigh sits inland, so there is no salt spray to deal with, but the humidity and summer rains feed algae just as fast as on the coast — and shaded lots along the canals and wooded streets regrow faster. Rust staining depends on your irrigation schedule and usually needs attention every 12 to 18 months.
