The Importance of Annual Soft Wash and Power Washing for Your Home & Outdoor Spaces

Your home and outdoor living spaces endure year-round exposure to dirt, grime, mildew, and harsh weather conditions. Over time, these elements dull your home's appearance, damage surfaces, and pose health risks. Regular low-pressure (soft wash) power washing, the safest and most effective way to keep your home's exterior clean and well-maintained, ensures no risk of damage that high-pressure washing can cause.



Why Soft Washing?

Unlike traditional power washing, which can be too harsh on certain surfaces, soft washing uses a combination of low-pressure water and biodegradable cleaning solutions to remove gently:

  • Mold & Mildew

  • Algae & Lichen

  • Dirt & Stains

  • Pollen & Bacteria

  • Black Streaks on Roofs

  • Slippery Green Growth on Stone & Walkways


With annual soft washing, you can extend the life of your home's surfaces while keeping them looking fresh and new.



Shingle Restoration & Roof Longevity

Over time, roofs become streaked with black algae, moss, and lichen growth, damaging shingles and shortening their lifespan. Soft washing is the only recommended method for cleaning asphalt shingles without causing harm. By safely removing these organic growths, we restore your roof's appearance, extend its lifespan, and prevent costly damage.



Healthier Living & Air Quality

Mold, mildew, and algae make your home look dirty and create a breeding ground for allergens and bacteria. These airborne irritants can impact your family's health, leading to respiratory issues, allergies, and sinus problems. Soft washing helps eliminate these hazards, making your home a safer and healthier place to live.



Perfect for Outdoor Spaces:

Patios, Stone Walls, Pool Aprons. While soft washing is our preferred method to clean your vinyl, aluminum, or wooden siding, roofs, decks, and trim, hardscapes are not the same. We will likely use pressure, different cleaners, and hot water to refresh your stone walls, walkways, patios, and pool aprons. 

These surfaces are prone to:

  • Dirt and grime buildup

  • Stains from rust or efflorescence

  • Slippery moss and algae growth

  • Stains from leaves, food, and foot traffic


Soft washing is necessary before summer to ensure your pool area is clean, safe, and inviting. By removing slippery growth from stone and concrete surfaces, we also reduce the risk of slips and falls around your pool, patio, or walkways.



No Water? No Problem!

We understand that some areas experience water bans or restrictions, making cleaning your home's exterior difficult. Our trucks are fully equipped with an onboard water source, allowing us to bring our water if needed. This means we can provide power washing services anywhere, anytime—without relying on your home's water supply.



Boost Your Home's Curb Appeal & Longevity.

A single soft wash session can dramatically affect how your home and outdoor spaces look. Whether you are preparing for summer entertaining, selling your home, or simply maintaining your soft washing is an affordable way to refresh and protect your investment.
