Professional Oxidation Removal

How Do I Know If My Siding Has Oxidation?

Look for these telltale signs common to properties in southwest Wisconsin and the greater Midwest:

• Faded, Dull Color: Siding appears washed out, especially on sun-facing walls.

• Chalky Film: Wipe your hand or a dark cloth over the siding—if you pick up white powder, that’s oxidation.

• Streaks or Patches: After rainfall or DIY washing, affected areas look spotty or inconsistent.

• Stubborn Discoloration: Stains and fading that don’t respond to normal cleaning methods.

If you’re seeing these issues, you’re not alone—thanks to our regional climate, oxidation is nearly unavoidable but highly manageable.

How Does J.O.’s Exteriors Remove Oxidation?

With over a decade serving homeowners across the Midwest, our approach blends technical expertise, commercial-grade equipment, and a dedication to quality:

• Thorough Inspection: We carefully examine your siding to assess oxidation’s severity and match the right treatment.

• Soft Wash Systems: Unlike power washing—which can worsen the problem—we use soft washing with specialized, eco-friendly cleaners at low pressure (under 100 PSI). This process safely breaks down and removes oxidation at the molecular level.

• Siding-Specific Cleaners: Our solutions are tailored for vinyl, aluminum, or other siding types, ensuring strong results without harming plants, pets, or soil. All products are EPA-compliant and biodegradable.

• Long-Lasting Protection: This method restores your siding’s appearance and helps prevent future oxidation, protecting your investment for years.

• Careful Job Management: We take steps to safeguard your landscaping and runoff areas, keeping your home and the local environment safe and clean.

You’re getting more than “another cleaning”—you’re getting protection backed by expertise and industry-leading tools.

The Benefits of Professional Oxidation Removal

• Significant Cost Savings: Siding replacement can cost $8,000–$25,000, but oxidation removal is typically just $200–$400. It’s one of the smartest home maintenance investments you can make.

• Protect Home Value: Oxidation left untreated can lower resale values by 10–12% (a $15,000–$20,000 hit for the average Midwest home). Timely removal safeguards curb appeal and helps your property stand out in a competitive market.

• Healthier Living: Oxidized, porous siding traps moisture, fostering mold and mildew growth. Our process restores surface integrity, keeping your family safer.

• Energy Efficiency: Clean siding better resists weather and insulates your home, possibly cutting heating and cooling costs by 10–20%.

• Peace of Mind: Our work is fully guaranteed, performed by insured pros who care about results and your community.
