Soft Washing for Florida Homes
A low-pressure cleaning solution that kills algae and mildew at the root instead of blasting your siding.
Quick answer
What is soft washing?
Soft washing cleans exterior surfaces with a low-pressure, algae-killing solution instead of high-pressure water. Because it kills the organism rather than just knocking off the surface layer, results typically last two to three times longer than pressure washing the same surface.

FAQ
Soft Washing FAQs
Yes, when it is done properly. We pre-wet landscaping, control overspray and rinse thoroughly during and after the wash.
Typically 2-3 years on siding in this climate, versus roughly a year for pressure washing alone, because the algae colony is killed rather than just displaced.
Pressure washing uses force and suits hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses a cleaning solution at low pressure and suits porous or delicate surfaces like stucco, siding and shingles.
