Pressure washing, soft washing, paver sealing & window cleaning serving Auburndale and all of Polk County
Auburndale sits between Lake Ariana, Lake Arietta, Lake Juliana, and Lake Mattie. That much open water keeps the air humid nearly year-round, and humidity is exactly what mildew and algae need to take hold on stucco, roof shingles, and concrete. Walk around the Lake Ariana area or the older ranch homes near Jones Corner and you will notice the same dark streaking on rooflines and the same green film creeping across driveways.
The lakefront estates along Lake Arietta and the newer HOA subdivisions like Lake Arietta Reserve, Enclave at Lake Arietta, and Lake Juliana Estates deal with this too, even though the houses are newer. The mildew does not care how old the building is. Stucco and painted block both hold moisture, and once algae gets a foothold it spreads quickly from one surface to the next.
Tree cover adds to the problem. Shaded sections of driveways and rooflines stay damp longer after rain, and that extended moisture is where algae and mildew concentrate most. On older concrete driveways, the staining can look almost black in shaded corners even when the sunny sections of the same slab look clean.
On the commercial side, Auburndale has grown into a serious logistics corridor. The stretch near I-4 and Polk Parkway carries constant heavy truck traffic, and that traffic leaves road grime, diesel film, and tire marks on parking lots, loading areas, and driveways. Properties near Saddle Creek Logistics, Medline, and the Coca-Cola plant see it regularly, and the buildup on concrete flatwork can become a safety concern in addition to looking worn.
One more thing worth knowing: Polk County enforces stormwater illicit-discharge rules that require wash water to be kept out of storm drains and out of Auburndale's lakes. Regal Rinse Solutions follows those rules on every visit. Wash water is managed on-site, not pushed into the street.
Regal Rinse Solutions is based at 620 Oleander Dr SE in Winter Haven, about 15 minutes from most of Auburndale. That short drive means no inflated travel fees and the ability to get on-site quickly when the schedule opens up.
When Matthew Solomon arrives, the first step is a walk-around. He looks at the surface type, how deep the staining runs, and whether the area sits near one of Auburndale's lakes where runoff management requires extra attention. For a 1960s block ranch in town, the approach will be different from a newer stucco home in Juliana Village or a 55-plus community like Lake Juliana Landings where landscaping and common areas matter.
After the walk-around you get a written quote before any work starts. Nothing begins until you have seen the scope and the price in writing. That applies to every job, whether it is a single driveway or a full exterior cleaning package that includes the roof, house walls, windows, and pool cage.
For roofs, soft washing is the right method. High pressure tears up shingles and can void manufacturer warranties. Soft washing uses a low-pressure rinse with a cleaning solution that kills the algae at the root so it does not come back in a few weeks. For driveways, concrete flatwork, and pavers, higher pressure combined with surface cleaning equipment gets into the pores without damaging the surface.
Pool cages are another surface that comes up often in Auburndale. Screen enclosures trap moisture and turn green faster than most homeowners notice until they look at the frame sections close-up. Cleaning the cage at the same time as the house exterior makes sense because runoff from the roof and walls would dirty a freshly cleaned cage anyway if the work were done separately.

"Matthew Solomon did a wonderful job on our porch and driveway. It was so easy to schedule. He is prompt and very professional."
Yes. Matthew works in gated communities regularly. If your HOA requires a vendor to check in at a gate or submit insurance documentation ahead of time, let us know when you call and we will handle that before scheduling.
Polk County's stormwater rules require wash water to stay out of storm drains and natural water bodies, and that applies directly in Auburndale given how many lakes border residential streets. We manage runoff on-site using containment methods suited to the specific property. We do not push water toward the street or into drainage inlets.
Yes. That black streaking is almost always a cyanobacteria called Gloeocapsa magma, and it is very common on Auburndale roofs because the humidity off the lakes feeds it. Soft washing uses a low-pressure application of a cleaning solution that kills it. High-pressure washing is not the right method for shingles, so we do not use it on roofs.
Yes. The [commercial pressure washing](/commercial-pressure-washing/) service covers parking lots, loading areas, and building exteriors. Properties near the logistics facilities along that corridor typically have road grime and tire marks on the concrete, and surface cleaning equipment handles that efficiently.
It varies by season. Call (863) 531-8151 or fill out the contact form and Matthew will give you a current lead time. Being about 15 minutes from Auburndale means the scheduling is straightforward once a slot is available.
