Road Grime, Sun, and Humidity Leave Their Mark

RV cleaning focuses on cleaning the exterior surfaces of recreational vehicles using methods appropriate for the vehicle’s materials. Travel, storage, and Gulf Coast weather all leave buildup behind.

Florida’s humidity, rain, and heat encourage mold, mildew, and algae, and road grime adds to it. Our RV exterior cleaning removes that buildup while protecting the surfaces underneath.

What Our RV Cleaning Covers

1

Body and Sidewalls

The method depends on the exterior material.

2

Roof

Roof materials vary, so identification comes first.

3

Awning

Fabric calls for a gentle approach.

Your estimate confirms which areas need attention.

This focus on the exterior is also what RV deep cleaning means here: a thorough exterior clean, done carefully.

RV Roof Cleaning: Know Your Material First

Some RV surfaces may require lower pressure and careful technique. The roof is a prime example, because roof materials differ from one vehicle to the next.

Before any RV roof cleaning, the material and your manufacturer’s care instructions should guide the method. Tell us what your roof is made of and mention any warranty instructions.

RV Awning Cleaning: Why Gentle Wins

Awning fabric asks for the lightest touch. “Lippert, a major RV component manufacturer, cautions that a strong spray can damage fabric, seams, coatings, or nearby components if used too aggressively (Lippert, How to Clean Your RV Awning).”

That caution shapes how we think about RV awning cleaning. The right method protects the fabric and its coating.

Common RV Washing Mistakes

Well-meant washing can go wrong, and anyone learning how to wash an RV runs into the same traps. Watch for these four RV washing mistakes:

Carefree of Colorado warns against the last two in its cleaning guides. Careful method selection prevents most of these problems.

Pressure Washing vs. Soft Washing RV Exteriors

G&R Restoration uses pressure washing for hard surfaces and soft washing for delicate ones. Pressure washing is high-impact cleaning. Soft washing uses low pressure and specialized detergents. The pressure washing vs. soft washing RV question has no single answer. The right method depends on the surface, so your vehicle’s exterior materials decide it. We never treat the two methods as interchangeable, and we assess your RV before recommending either. Pressure matters for seals too. “Carefree of Colorado, an awning maker, warns that excess pressure can force water behind seals and decals (Carefree of Colorado, How to Clean an RV Exterior).” The same caution applies to RV pressure washing on any surface.

How Often Should You Clean an RV?

Frequency depends on travel, storage conditions, exposure to road grime, weather, and the appearance you want. Storage under cover and storage in the open produce different results, so your situation sets the pace. Humidity matters too. “Carefree of Colorado notes that in areas where high temperature and humidity are common, mildew can be a problem and the fabric may need washing more frequently (Carefree of Colorado, Awning Care & Maintenance).” An RV deep cleaning of the exterior can fit after long storage or a busy travel season. A free estimate gives you a recommendation for your own vehicle.
