Washing Services

Power washing or pressure washing often has a stigma. Homeowners link it to worn out paint, blown window seals, destroyed landscaping and much more. Whether this association comes from a bad experience with a previous contractor or from DIY experiences, a knowledgeable estimator will often address all concerns with the customer to educate them on the process that best fits their needs. It’s also at this point when the term “soft washing” is introduced.

Soft washing is a cleaning method using low pressure and specialized biodegradable chemical solutions to safely remove mildew, mold, bacteria, algae, pollen, dirt and other organic stains from roofs and other building exteriors without damaging surfaces on your home or killing your plants. While power washing relies primarily on a penetrating jet of water, soft wash relies on the power of the cleaning products being used.

1. Protecting delicate plants and landscaping
2. Applying a cleaning solution that includes mildewcides, algaecides and surfactants
3. Giving the solution time to work, penetrating to the roots of the unsightly contaminants on your home
4. Rinsing all surfaces

Not only does the soft-washing method safely and thoroughly clean surfaces-such as your roof, deck, patio, siding or fence- but it also is gentle on your home’s surfaces. It is extremely effective in removing unsightly mold, mildew, algae and fungi, as well as in preserving the lifespan of your paint, shingles and siding. Plus, it’s easy to protect your plants and landscaping.

Yes! Power washing certainly has a specific place and purpose when it comes to cleaning driveways, patios and walkways, but the extreme velocity of the water can potentially damage softer materials like wood, shingles, vinyl siding and masonry. A professional power washing company will know exactly what combination and nozzle extensions to use to achieve the proper pressure, volume and chemical mixture to clean all surfaces thoroughly, effectively and safely.

Unlike most floor paint that is restricted to the 55-85 degree temperature range, we have three temperature formulations that allow us to apply equally well in extreme heat, cold or anywhere in between. However typically concrete is driest in the winter and we have the fewest issues with having to mitigate slab moisturize in the winter.
