Mijas covers more ground than most people realise — from the famous whitewashed streets of Mijas Pueblo high in the hills, right down to the seafront at Mijas Costa. Each part of Mijas has its own facade challenges, and we understand all of them.

Up in the pueblo, traditional whitewashed walls need gentle, careful treatment. Down on the coast, salt air and humidity drive fast biological growth. In between, hillside urbanisations deal with wind, rain runoff, and stubborn Calima staining year after year.

Whatever part of Mijas you are in, your facade is working hard against the local environment. We use the same soft-wash approach across all of it — safe for every surface, effective against every type of staining we find here.

Services we offer in Mijas

We are the one stop solution for everything related to Facade cleaning. Below you a list of all the services we offer in Mijas.

• Soft-Wash Facade Cleaning – Gentle low-pressure cleaning that removes algae, streaks, and pollution from all render types safely — from traditional pueblo whitewash to modern urbanisation finishes.
• Algae and Mould Removal – We kill biological growth at the root using professional biocides, not just wash the surface clean. That means it takes far longer to come back after we treat it.
• Red Calima Dust Removal – Saharan dust hits Mijas hard, especially on hillside properties exposed to the wind. We remove the orange-red film it leaves completely, restoring the original colour underneath.
• Salt Deposit Cleaning – Properties along Mijas Costa and Riviera del Sol deal with constant salt air from the Mediterranean. We remove the dull white salt crust that builds up on render and weakens it over time.
• Black Streak Treatment – Dark vertical streaks running down your walls are biological staining feeding on moisture and shade. We remove them fully and apply treatment to slow their return significantly.
• Whitewash Surface Cleaning – Mijas Pueblo’s traditional whitewashed buildings need the most delicate approach of all. Our soft-wash method is safe for these historic surfaces and keeps them looking their best.
• Communidad Exterior Cleaning – We work with community presidents and administrators across Calahonda, Riviera del Sol, and Las Lagunas to clean shared building facades and exterior walls professionally.
• Biocide Protection Treatment – Every clean ends with a residual biocide treatment that continues working after we leave, slowing down algae and mould regrowth across all Mijas property types.
• Full Exterior Cleaning – We finish every job by rinsing down frames, shutters, walkways, and surrounding areas so your whole exterior looks properly cleaned and cared for from top to bottom.

Why Painting Over Algae in Mijas is a Costly Mistake

It is a very common situation across Mijas. A facade looks grey, streaky, and tired, so the decision is made to repaint it. Fresh paint goes over the top, it looks great for a few months — and then the dark patches and streaks start appearing again, seemingly out of nowhere.

This is not bad luck. It is what happens when algae and mould are painted over rather than treated. The biological growth does not die just because you cover it with paint. It carries on growing underneath the new surface, breaking the bond between the paint and the render, and eventually pushing its way back through. In Mijas’s humid coastal and hillside environment, it happens faster than you might expect.

The right order is always to clean and kill the biological growth first, then decide if repainting is actually necessary. In most cases across Mijas, once we have done a proper soft-wash clean and biocide treatment, the facade looks so good that repainting turns out not to be needed at all. You save the cost of painting and get a result that genuinely lasts — instead of trapping a problem underneath a fresh coat.

We Remove Stubborn Red Calima Dust

Anyone who has lived in Mijas for more than a season knows what a Calima event looks like. The sky turns a deep orange, the air feels thick, and by the time it passes, everything outside is coated in a fine red-brown dust that has blown all the way from the Sahara Desert. Your car gets it. Your garden gets it. And your facade gets it too.

The difference between your car and your facade is that you can wash your car easily. Calima dust on render is a different problem. It bonds to the surface, mixes with moisture and existing algae, and settles into the texture of the render in a way that ordinary rinsing simply does not shift. On hillside properties in Mijas Pueblo and the inland urbanisations, where facades are exposed to the prevailing wind, the buildup can be significant after just a few events.

Our soft-wash solution is specifically effective at breaking down and lifting Calima deposits from rendered surfaces. We do not just rinse it — we treat the surface so the dust releases properly and is carried away cleanly. When the rinse is done, the original colour of your facade comes back clearly. For white and light-coloured properties across Mijas, the difference after a Calima clean is one of the most dramatic results we produce.

Why Mijas Homes Deserve a Clean Facade

Mijas Pueblo is one of the most photographed places in Andalusia. Those famous white walls, the flower pots, the neat painted finishes — that is not an accident. It reflects something genuine about how people in Mijas feel about their homes and their surroundings. Keeping a property looking well maintained is a source of real local pride here.

But the environment in Mijas makes it genuinely hard work to keep a facade looking good. The altitude brings wind and rain. The coast brings salt and humidity. The African desert sends dust clouds that settle on everything. Your facade is dealing with all of that every single day, and over time it shows — not because you have neglected it, but because the conditions here are tough on any exterior surface.

A professional facade clean is one of the most straightforward ways to restore what the environment has slowly taken away. We work across all of Mijas — pueblo, costa, and everything in between — and we see the same thing every time we finish a job. The property looks the way it was meant to look. That is what your home deserves, and it is exactly what we are here to deliver.
