Awning Cleaning
in Lake County, FL
Keep Your Lake County Storefront Awnings
Clean and Bright
Awnings take the worst of Central Florida’s weather. The hot, humid, high-sun climate feeds algae, mold, and mildew, and it all settles into awning fabric and vinyl faster than most business owners expect, leaving a storefront or building entrance looking dingy and streaked before you know it. Frequent summer rain and the humidity that hangs over lake country only speed the regrowth, so an awning that looked fresh a few months ago can go dull in a hurry.
We soft wash commercial awnings, matching the cleaning mix to each material so the awning comes clean without any damage to the fabric, the seams, or the color. At Fountain Exterior Cleaning, that careful, material-first approach is how we keep a storefront looking sharp for the customers walking up to your door.

The Awning Materials We Clean
in Lake County
We soft wash awnings and dial the chemical strength up or down by material, so a delicate fabric awning is never treated like a rugged vinyl one. Here is how we handle each kind.
Vinyl
Vinyl is a durable awning material, and it takes a standard soft-wash mix well. We clean it from a top-down view with no harsh pressure that could stress the seams or any printed graphics. Any runoff onto the storefront below gets washed down, so nothing is left behind once we pack up.
Canvas
Canvas gets a gentler soft-wash approach than vinyl. We dial the chemical strength down to lift algae and grime without harming the weave, apply it top-down, and then wash the whole thing down. It is the same care, just tuned for a softer material.
Fabric
Fabric gets the gentlest mix of the three, because it is the most delicate awning material we handle. It is soft wash only, matched carefully to protect both color and weave. Fabric awnings pick up Central Florida’s algae and mildew fast in the humid, high-sun climate, so a gentle, regular clean keeps them from staining in for good.
Why Property Managers Trust Us
With Their Awnings
Awning cleaning is a job of matched chemistry and careful cleanup, not a quick blast. Here is what you get when we handle yours.
The Right Chemical Strength for Every Awning Material
We match the mix to the material, so a rugged vinyl awning and a delicate fabric one are never treated the same. We match the exact chemical and dilution to your surface and stain, never a one-size-fits-all blast of chlorine, so your property is cleaned safely and thoroughly. On an awning, that means fabric gets the gentlest pass while vinyl takes a stronger one, and the color and weave stay protected either way.
We Clean the Storefront Below, Not Just the Awning
When we wash an awning top-down, anything gunky that runs onto the storefront and the glass below gets washed down too. We do not leave you a mess to deal with underneath a freshly cleaned awning. The whole entrance looks handled, not just the piece overhead.
Top-Down Ladder Access for a Thorough Clean
We set a ladder for a true top-down view of the awning, so we reach the entire surface, including the tops where grime collects out of sight. That means the whole awning gets clean, not just the front face a customer sees from the sidewalk. It is the difference between a surface rinse and a real clean.
A Real Person Schedules Around Your Hours
A real person answers and schedules your awning clean around your business hours, so the work happens without getting in the way of your customers. When you reach out, a real person calls you back fast, often within minutes, never a robot. You get a straight answer and a time that fits your operation, not an automated runaround.
How Our
Awning Cleaning Works
From your first call to the finished job, here is exactly how it goes.
The Free Quote and Awning Count
Your first contact reaches a real person who responds fast and gets the details of your property. We count the awnings and factor in size and material, since awning cleaning is priced per awning and every site is a little different.
Scheduling Around Your Business Hours
We book the clean for a time that works for your business, so we are never in the way of your customers or your foot traffic. Whether that means before you open or after you close, we set it around your operation, not ours.
Setup, Water, and the Ladder
On arrival, we find a water source and fill our tank. Then we set a ladder for a top-down view of each awning, so we can reach the full surface from above rather than working blind from the sidewalk.
Matching the Chemical to the Material and Soft Washing
We dial the chemical strength up or down by material, with fabric getting the gentlest mix, and apply the correct amount to the staining. Then we soft wash from the top down using our soft-wash system, the ladder, and a material-matched chemical, letting the chemistry do the work instead of harsh pressure.
Washing Down the Storefront Below
Once the awning is clean, we wash it down and clean up any runoff onto the storefront and glass below. Nothing gunky is left behind, so the area under a clean awning looks just as good as the awning itself.
Final Look and Finish
We leave the awning and the area beneath it clean, and we stand behind the work. Invoicing follows once you are satisfied with how it looks, not before.
What Awning Cleaning Costs
in Lake County
Awning cleaning can be a quick refresh for a single entrance or part of a larger storefront cleanup. We quote the work upfront based on what is actually needed, so you know the full cost before we begin.
- Per awning, from about $250 up to roughly $1,000 depending on size. Price varies by awning size and material, and fabric and canvas take a gentler, more careful pass than vinyl.
- Awning cleaning pairs naturally with storefront cleaning, and many clients have us do both in one visit while we are already on site. When you combine awning cleaning with another service, a multi-service bundle discount takes about $75 off, so bundling is a straightforward way to get more value out of a single visit.

Awning Cleaning FAQs
Will pressure washing damage or tear my awning?
No, because we do not pressure wash awnings at all. We soft wash them, matching the chemical strength to the material so the awning comes clean without being blasted.
What happens to the runoff on the storefront below the awning?
We wash it down as part of the job. When we clean an awning top-down, any grime or solution that runs onto the storefront and glass below gets rinsed and cleaned, so we never leave a mess under a clean awning.
