Oxidation & rust removal in Longview, TX

If you run a hand down your siding and it comes away chalky and white, that's oxidation. Rust stains on concrete are a different problem, but the same regular wash won't touch either one. This will.

Oxidation & Rust Removal

Why it matters

Years of East Texas sun break down the surface of vinyl and aluminum siding. The finish gives up its color and leaves behind a dull, chalky film that rubs off on your hand, your ladder and anything that brushes against the wall. Metal buildings, carports, gutters and painted trim all do the same thing.

Oxidation isn't dirt, so soap and a soft wash won't move it. It's the failed top layer of the surface itself. We treat the surface with a cleaner made for oxidation, work it in, and rinse it off. The chalk comes away and the original color underneath comes back.

What's included

  • Chalk test on a hidden section
  • Oxidation treatment & agitation

FAQ

Oxidation & Rust Removal questions

How do I know if my siding is oxidized?

Wipe it with a dark cloth or your hand. If you pick up a chalky white residue, that's oxidation, and washing alone won't remove it.

Will my siding look brand new?

Usually it comes back close to its original color. Badly weathered siding may stay slightly faded, which is why we test a patch first and show you honestly what to expect.

Is this the same as a house wash?

No. A house wash removes mold, algae and dirt. Oxidation removal takes off the failed chalky layer of the surface itself, and it's a separate treatment.

Can you do metal buildings and carports?

Yes. Metal buildings, carports and awnings oxidize the same way siding does, and they respond well to the same treatment.
