Why is soft washing considered “eco-friendly”?

How is soft washing different from pressure washing?
Soft washing uses low-pressure water and a specialized blend of cleansers to safely remove contaminants. It is specifically formulated to target organic contaminants like mold, algae, mildew, and bacteria that can deteriorate exterior surfaces, but is gentle enough to use on delicate materials like roofing, stucco, vinyl, wood, and more without the risk of cracking, eroding, or otherwise damaging the surface.
What types of siding can you clean with soft washing?
Our method is safe for various siding materials, including vinyl, aluminum, cedar, brick, and stucco.
What types of organic growth will soft washing remove?
Soft washing targets contaminants like mold, algae, mildew, and bacteria that can cause staining, streaking, and other damage to your exterior surfaces.
Why do the results of soft washing last longer than pressure washing?
The blend of cleansers we use in a soft washing service kills organic contaminants at the root rather than simply shifting them around the way pressure washing does. This means that mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria are fully removed and the surface they were growing on is sanitized, which prevents rapid regrowth.
Is it safe to soft wash my roof?
Yes! Soft washing is safe for most types of roofing, including asphalt shingles, metal, cedar shakes, slate, and more.
Will soft washing remove the black streaks on my roof?
Yes – those streaks are typically caused by an algae called Gloeocapsa magma, which soft washing is highly effective at killing and removing.
How do you verify that a roof is fully clean after a soft washing service?
We use a drone to inspect the roof from above and confirm that every section has been thoroughly cleaned.
What types of hardscape surfaces can you clean?
We frequently clean features like decks, patios, driveways, walkways, brick walls, and fences. If you have a question about a specific feature of your hardscape, give us a call to discuss whether we can handle cleaning it.
Do you ever perform pressure washing instead of soft washing?
Yes. Although soft washing is our primary method, we do provide pressure washing services for select surfaces. Typically, pressure washing is only for stubborn hardscape stains like red clay on driveways. We only pressure wash durable, concrete surfaces that can withstand the force of the pressure wash equipment.
