Quick Answers About Our Softwash Process and More

What is soft washing?

Soft washing combines a cleaning solution with a low-pressure rinse to address dirt and organic buildup on suitable exterior surfaces. The approach depends on the material, finish and condition.

Soft washing uses a cleaning solution and a low-pressure rinse. Pressure washing uses higher water pressure and may be appropriate for certain hard surfaces. The choice depends on the material, finish, condition and type of buildup.

We assess soft washing for siding, soffits, fascia, gutter exteriors and other suitable surfaces. Roofs, stucco, painted finishes and wood need an approach matched to the specific product and condition. Tell us which areas you want cleaned so we can recommend the method for each.

Environmental precautions depend on the cleaning product, surface and site conditions. Ask us about the proposed cleaning solution, runoff precautions and preparation for your property. Tell us about sensitive landscaping, and keep children and pets away from the work area until the crew advises it can be used again.

Results vary with shade, moisture, nearby trees and exposure. We do not promise a fixed number of years or that soft washing lasts a set number of times longer than another method.

We assess the roofing product and its condition before recommending cleaning. The method should follow the applicable manufacturer’s care instructions. Tell us about existing roof damage or leaks when requesting your quote; no single cleaning method is suitable for every roof.

Soft washing removes dirt and organic buildup from suitable surfaces as part of property maintenance. It does not repair existing damage or guarantee a longer service life. The appropriate care depends on the material, finish and condition, along with the manufacturer’s instructions.

There is no single schedule for every home. Check for returning dirt or organic buildup, particularly on shaded walls, and follow the care instructions for your siding and finish. Ask us about a suitable maintenance schedule for your property.
