house washing

[SigristPW]

Im cleaning a half wood (painted white) and half brick house. would a safe bleach mix 1:10 ratio be fine for this or should i use some thing else. The house just has general dirt and debris on it .

Thanks,
Wes

Thats fine. Don't forget the soap...and NO high pressure on the wood.

pre-wet the bricks before applying cleaners. It will keep the cleaners from being sucked into the pores and will make rinsing easier. If you're not using 12% bleach, and are buying from a store which would be about 6%, then at 10:1 your bleach will be rather weak. You want your bleach to be about 1% to 3% on the surface for best results.
