A cleaner home. Care for the yard around it.
WiseShield™ is our approach to planning around plants, garden beds, and runoff during house and roof washing across Acadiana.
Four steps for working around your landscape
- Step 1
Walk the property
Identify sensitive plants, garden beds, and where water drains before work begins.
- Step 2
Hydrate and prepare
Pre-wet appropriate vegetation and plan precautions for vulnerable areas.
- Step 3
Manage runoff
Match the wash to the surface and limit where overspray and runoff can reach.
- Step 4
Rinse and review
Rinse nearby landscaping with clean water as needed and check the area before leaving.
Where the cleaning solution goes matters
Soft-wash cleaners target algae and organic buildup on exterior surfaces. WiseShield™ focuses on reducing exposure around those surfaces through planning, careful application, and rinsing.
We’re evaluating a separate chlorine-neutralizing concentrate. Chlorine neutralizers can reduce residual chlorine under suitable conditions. The concentrate is experimental and has yet to be validated for field use. Plant damage remains possible.
What to ask before a wash
- Where will roof runoff go?
- Ask how gutters, downspouts, and nearby beds affect the plan.
- Which plants need extra care?
- Identify edible gardens, new plantings, and delicate foliage in the walk-through.
- What happens after cleaning?
- Ask which areas will be rinsed and checked before the crew leaves.
