Rainy Season Is Over: What West Palm Beach Homeowners Should Clean Before the Winter Season
West Palm Beach, United States - October 8, 2026 / Glass Act Exterior Cleaning /
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., September, 2026 — With South Florida's rainy season officially ending on October 15, Glass Act Exterior Cleaning, an exterior cleaning company based in West Palm Beach, is encouraging local homeowners and returning seasonal residents to treat the mold and algae that built up on their homes over the summer before the winter season begins.
According to the National Weather Service, South Florida's wet season runs from May 15 to October 15 and brings 60 to 70 percent of the region's yearly rainfall. West Palm Beach averages about 36 inches of rain during those months, with dew points in the 70s almost every day. Those warm, damp conditions allow mold, mildew and algae to spread across roofs, stucco walls, pool screen enclosures and pavers.
Glass Act Exterior Cleaning recommends that homeowners check these areas after the rainy season:
- Roofs: Dark streaks are usually algae. Low-pressure soft washing removes the growth without cracking tiles or stripping shingle granules.
- Stucco walls and eaves: North-facing and shaded walls tend to turn green first.
- Windows: Homes near the Lake Worth Lagoon and the Intracoastal Waterway often collect a salt film on the glass.
- Pool screen enclosures: Trapped humidity lets algae grow on screens and frames.
- Driveways, pavers and pool decks: Mildew can make these surfaces slippery.
- Hurricane shutters: Cleaning shutters and their tracks after hurricane season ends on November 30 helps them work smoothly the next time a storm approaches.
The company also advises property owners to avoid high-pressure washing on roofs and older stucco, which is common in historic neighborhoods such as Belair and Prospect Park. Wash water containing cleaning products should be kept out of street storm drains, which carry runoff toward local waterways.
