Total Clean Pro-Wash is a commercial-focused exterior cleaning company serving Nashville, TN and the surrounding Middle Tennessee area. Pressure washing is the company’s main service, and building washing runs through the same consistent exterior cleaning system applied to every job. That matters for commercial buyers because occupied buildings, active tenants, site logistics, and runoff planning require coordination that general residential contractors are rarely set up to handle.
This page is for commercial property owners, facility managers, property managers, apartment operators, office buildings, retail centers, and campus administrators. The concerns that come up most often on commercial jobs are reasonable ones: will the landscaping be protected, how will tenants be notified, what happens with runoff on a larger site, and how does the company respond if something goes wrong after the crew leaves. The process at Total Clean Pro-Wash is built to address each of those before they become problems on your property.
Nashville’s climate works against commercial exteriors. Humid summers, regular rainfall, and frequent thunderstorms accelerate algae growth, mildew, and organic surface buildup on building facades throughout the region. Routine building washing keeps that cycle from getting ahead of your maintenance budget.
Commercial building washing is quoted based on the specific property, and that conversation starts with a request for a quote. For reference, Total Clean Pro-Wash applies a $300 minimum across its exterior cleaning services, and the upper range for the largest residential jobs in the house washing category reaches approximately $1,200 for website reference purposes, with larger commercial work priced higher based on project scope. Those figures come from the same process family as building washing but are not a substitute for a commercial quote. Pricing details are available upon request after the property is assessed.
Several variables shape the final price on any commercial job. Building size and square footage are the starting point. Accessibility challenges such as upper floors and tight access corridors factor in, as does the level of existing buildup, since heavier grime requires more solution. Occupied-property coordination, water source logistics, runoff control requirements, and whether the work is a one-time wash or part of an ongoing maintenance relationship all affect scope and cost.
Runoff planning is a practical part of commercial job preparation in Nashville. Metro guidance encourages property owners to identify storm drain locations in advance, prevent wash water from entering the stormwater system, and direct runoff to appropriate disposal areas such as a grassy drainage zone, a sanitary sewer connection, or a collect-and-capture system. Total Clean Pro-Wash builds this into the commercial process as a standard consideration.
Total Clean Pro-Wash offers a 10% discount for bundled packages, and the bundling is completely flexible. There is no fixed preset that limits which services can be combined. Pairing building washing with window cleaning, awning cleaning, roof cleaning, gutter cleaning, driveway cleaning, or drive-through cleaning all qualify, and the discount applies across whatever combination fits the property. For larger-scale jobs and recurring commercial customers, the company works with clients on pricing in a way that reflects the value of those ongoing relationships.
Vinyl siding is handled through the company’s established building washing process. Before any solution is applied, surrounding plants are saturated with water. The cleaning solution is then applied to the siding, allowed to dwell for 15 minutes, and rinsed thoroughly. Plants are saturated again after the rinse, and surrounding items are covered when needed.
Fiber cement siding, including Hardie board, is washed using the same process. The 15-minute dwell time lets the solution work against surface buildup before the rinse, grounding the approach in chemistry rather than high-pressure force. Property protection steps stay consistent across material types.
Metal siding and exterior metal panels fall within the company’s building washing scope. The cleaning system is applied in a controlled, surface-appropriate way with consistent attention to the surrounding property throughout the job.
Brick exteriors are handled with the same core sequence: solution application, a 15-minute dwell, and a thorough rinse, with landscaping and adjacent surfaces protected throughout. This matters especially on brick buildings where ground-level plantings sit close to the foundation.
Wood siding and exterior wood elements are included in the material range the company works with. Application is adjusted based on what the surface and its current condition require, with process consistency guiding the approach throughout.
Stucco exteriors follow the same process, with controlled solution application, the 15-minute dwell where appropriate, and careful rinsing. The emphasis, as with any material type, stays on effective cleaning with deliberate attention to surrounding areas.
Oxidized paint on older buildings is a known limitation, and Total Clean Pro-Wash does not perform oxidation removal. Standard commercial building exteriors in sound painted condition are well within scope. Aged, significantly deteriorated, or oxidized painted surfaces require a different approach that falls outside what the company currently offers. If your building has noticeably oxidized paint, a direct conversation about readiness before scheduling is the right first step.

Commercial work is the primary focus at Total Clean Pro-Wash, and pressure washing is the company’s main service. For buyers who want a contractor that treats their property as a core account rather than a weekend add-on, that combination is a meaningful signal. When building washing is central to what a company does every day, the crew is more familiar with commercial site dynamics and coordination is more consistent.
Building washing follows the same established exterior cleaning system applied across all service lines. When you bring the company back for a second or third job, the process is the same because it does not change between visits. That consistency is a genuine advantage on commercial properties where improvised workflows create delays and missed steps.
For apartment complexes, retail centers, and other occupied commercial buildings, Total Clean Pro-Wash sends a preparation document to the client before service day. The client distributes it to tenants with readiness instructions covering what needs to be done before the crew arrives. The result is a jobsite where vehicles are moved, perimeters are cleared, and tenants are not caught off guard when the crew shows up.
Total Clean Pro-Wash can bring its own water supply to a job or use the client’s on-site water source, depending on what the property requires. This removes a common planning complication for commercial clients whose sites may or may not have convenient exterior water access.
Water reclamation is available when the job calls for it. On commercial properties where runoff management is part of responsible site upkeep, knowing the contractor has this capability is a concrete reassurance. It connects directly to Nashville-area expectations around protecting the stormwater system during larger exterior cleaning jobs.
Plant protection is a built-in step on every job, not something the client has to request. Before any wash solution is applied, surrounding plants and landscaping are saturated with water. After the rinse, they are saturated again, and items adjacent to the work area are covered when the job calls for it. This sequence addresses the concern that comes up most often on commercial exterior cleaning jobs: the risk of damage to landscaping, hardscaping, or nearby surfaces that were not part of the wash.
The 10% bundle discount applies to any combination of exterior services the client wants to group together. There is no preset package that limits the options, which makes it straightforward for property managers to build a scope around what the building actually needs rather than fitting the property into a rigid offering.
For property managers building ongoing maintenance plans, it is worth knowing that Total Clean Pro-Wash gives more pricing flexibility to larger-scale jobs and recurring commercial customers. This reflects how the company handles accounts where the scope and consistency of work supports a more accommodating arrangement, not a vague promotional claim.
Total Clean Pro-Wash handles large properties and campuses. Commercial sites with significant square footage, multiple buildings, or complex access layouts are within the company’s operating scope, making this a practical option for property managers who need a contractor that can coordinate and execute at scale.
The process begins with the same contact and intake system used across all service lines, then adapts to the property. This phase establishes site logistics, confirms the scope, and identifies the right point of contact, whether that is a property owner, facility manager, or site coordinator.
Before the crew arrives at any occupied property, a preparation document is sent to the client outlining what needs to be done before service day. The client distributes it to tenants, so vehicles get moved, perimeters get cleared, and everyone on site knows what to expect.
Before the wash begins, the team confirms whether it will bring water or use the property’s on-site connection. Runoff is addressed at the same stage, with water reclamation available when the scope requires it. Storm drain locations are identified in advance as part of responsible commercial job preparation in Nashville.
All plants and landscaping in the work area are saturated with water before any cleaning solution is applied. Surrounding items are covered when the job calls for it. This step is standard on every job, not conditional on the client asking.
With the surrounding property protected, the wash solution is applied to the building exterior. The approach relies on the chemistry of the solution to break down algae, mildew, and surface buildup, with application adjusted based on surface type and condition.
The solution dwells on the surface for 15 minutes, giving it the contact time needed to break down organic buildup thoroughly before rinsing begins. Shortening that window would reduce effectiveness and push the job toward a pressure-reliant approach, which increases surface risk.
Once the dwell period is complete, the building exterior is rinsed to remove loosened contaminants and residual solution. The rinse is handled carefully and completely, leaving the surface clear without streaking or residue.
Plants and surrounding landscaping are saturated with water a second time after the rinse as a final protection step. The finished work is then reviewed. If a client is not satisfied after the crew has left, Total Clean Pro-Wash will try to fix the issue first, and if it cannot be corrected and the client remains unhappy, the money is refunded.
Building washing produces the best long-term results when it is part of a regular maintenance plan rather than a one-time correction. Total Clean Pro-Wash supports recurring commercial relationships and gives more pricing flexibility to clients with ongoing accounts. In Nashville, where humid conditions and regular rainfall keep exterior grime cycles active year-round, routine cleaning protects both the appearance and the long-term condition of commercial building exteriors.
This service does not include a warranty or guarantee, and it is worth stating that plainly so there are no surprises after the job is done. What Total Clean Pro-Wash offers is a clear service-recovery process: if an issue comes up after a building washing job, the company will try to fix it first. If the problem cannot be corrected and the client remains unsatisfied, the money is refunded. That is the actual post-service process, stated without embellishment, and it is what clients can count on if something does not go as expected.
For most commercial exteriors in the Nashville area, once a year is a reasonable baseline, with a second visit worth considering for buildings that sit under heavy tree cover, face north (less sun exposure means slower drying and faster algae growth), or are near water. Properties with recurring tenant turnover or visible buildup between cleans are better served by a structured maintenance plan than a reactive schedule.
Job duration depends on size, height, access, and the level of buildup, and we confirm a realistic time window during the scoping conversation so you can plan tenant notifications and site access accordingly.
Our building washing process is chemistry-led with a controlled rinse, which is closer to soft washing than to high-pressure blasting. The 15-minute dwell time lets the cleaning solution break down algae, mildew, and organic buildup so we are not relying on pressure to lift what chemistry should be doing.
The solution is applied at rates designed for exterior surfaces, and the built-in plant-saturation steps (before and after) are specifically there to prevent uptake damage. Surrounding hardscape is rinsed as part of the close-out.
The prep document we send covers it in full, but generally: close windows and doors, move vehicles away from the perimeter, cover or relocate sensitive outdoor items, and ensure tenants have been notified. Our written prep document for occupied properties lists everything for you.
Yes. These are flagged during the site walk and worked around or protected as needed. If there is equipment you specifically do not want the crew to go near, note it during scoping.
Light or intermittent rain does not usually affect the job, but active storms or high wind will pause the work. We coordinate on rescheduling rather than push a wash into conditions that compromise the result.
