What is Soft Washing?
Soft Washing is the alternative to pressure washing! Without all of the blowing and blasting sometimes
related to pressure washing, we use a low pressure, water base, biodegradable detergent-based
cleaning process that kills mold, mildew, and fungi while at the same time loosening dust dirt and
cobwebs on your Exterior Surfaces. We use 1/3 less water than pressure washing and the results last 3-
5 times longer. Soft Washing not only cleans the surface but sanitizes it at the same time, this is
something pressure washing cannot achieve alone. Soft Washing is by far the superior choice in Exterior
Cleaning Services.
What are The Black Stains on my Roof?
Over time black unsightly staining starts to appear on roofing surfaces. This black staining occurs
naturally. This staining is its own little ecosystem created by a bacteria called Gloeocapsa magma. This
bacteria clings to the surface of the roof, growing and spreading due to wind and rainy environments.
This bacterium forms a black shell to protect itself from the sun’s rays, as sun inhibits the growth and
spread of this bacteria. This staining will spread to the entire surface infesting the roof and starting t on
its path to premature deterioration. On asphalt shingles, this bacterium will consume the surface as
these shingles are made with limestone fillers, which is food for this bacterium. Soft washing is the best
alternative to kill this bacterium and prevent premature deterioration of this surface, giving you the full
life span of the material used.
What is the difference between Soft Washing and Pressure Washing?
These 2 methods of cleaning are vastly different. In fact, only one of these services clean anything. Let
us talk about pressure washing. This is the use of high-pressure water to blast away mold, mildew, fungi
dust dirt and funk from exterior surfaces. Unfortunately, these organic growths have root systems that
make there way into your exterior surfaces, causing damage over time. Pressure washing more
accurately gives these organic growths a “hair cut” leaving the root system intact, hiding safely below
the surface. This is what allows this organic material to grow back within 6 months or so, causing you to
have to pressure wash once again.
On the flip side, we have Soft Washing. This is a low-pressure detergent-based cleaning process that
kills mold, mildew & fungi on the exterior surface. This is because our detergent will penetrate below
the surface, killing the root systems. This is simply washed away with cold water, and viola you have a
clean, sanitized surface that will last 3-5 times longer than pressure washing.
How Long Does the Service Take?
Each Soft Washing project is different and the time to complete a project is based on size, complexity of
the structure, design of the structure, and the material the structure or surface is made from. This is
why we complete an onsite estimate to ensure our service scope is correct for your individual situation.
Do I need to be home for the day of the Service?
Because our services are on the exterior of your property, there is no need for anyone to be home.
During the estimate and project planning, our team will send out a “What to Expect” flyer on items the
homeowner would need to complete to ensure a safe and successful project. This way everything is
addressed prior to services.
