Irmo grew up along the northwest side of Lake Murray, and its older housing stock in Friarsgate and Ballentine carries decades of siding, trim, and roofing that a modern pressure washer can damage if it's not handled the right way. Mature trees along St. Andrews Road and the lake-adjacent streets keep shaded elevations damp and slow-drying, which is exactly the condition algae and mildew need to take hold.

What Irmo Homes Deal With

• Friarsgate and Ballentine's older housing stock often has original wood trim and older paint — we soft wash rather than pressure wash so nothing gets stripped, chipped, or forced behind the siding.
• Mature tree cover along the lake-adjacent streets keeps roofs and north-facing walls shaded and slow to dry, which is where Gloeocapsa algae streaks show up first and heaviest.
• Lake Murray humidity means deck and dock wood surfaces near the shoreline need cleaning on a shorter cycle than the same materials a few miles inland.

We regularly serve Friarsgate, Ballentine, St. Andrews Road corridor, and Lake Murray-adjacent streets. We treat older Irmo homes the way older homes need to be treated — gentle chemistry first, pressure only where the surface can take it.
