Soft washing uses low pressure water and specialized cleaning solutions to dissolve away dirt, moss, and organic staining. It’s kind of like using dish soap to remove grease from a pan. Pressure washing generally doesn’t involve cleaning solutions and uses only water at very high pressures to blast away dirt, moss, and organic staining. This would be like using a fire hose to remove grease from a pan. Many surfaces are too delicate for pressure washing, so soft washing is often required to ensure that siding, roofs, decking, and other areas can be cleaned safely without damage.

We use a solution of sodium hypochlorite and water to emulsify organic infestations, enabling them to be easily rinsed away with low pressure water.

Soft washing is appropriate for many surfaces such as composite decking, fences, roofs, siding, awnings, and more. If you aren’t sure whether your surface should be cleaned with soft washing or pressure washing, just give us a call and we can advise on the best approach for your house!

These chemicals, by themselves. would not be good for plants - but we know just how to protect your plants! Before any cleaners are sprayed, we drench surrounding plants so that they won’t want to drink up any overspray that hits them. Then, we carefully spray off plants with clean water during and after the application of the chemicals. This keeps grasses, shrubs, trees, and flowers safe from the cleaning solution.

Yes! Pets and kids should be kept inside during the process. However, once the cleaner has been rinsed away it will be perfectly safe for kids and pets to come out into the yard again.
