We’ve talked a lot about the power of pressure washing to get your home ready for a fresh coat of paint or just clean up in our last article; but did you know there’s another secret weapon in our cleaning arsenal? If you have delicate surfaces that need a little love, it’s time to get acquainted with Soft Washing!
What Exactly is Soft Washing?
Think of soft washing as a "spa day" for your home’s exterior. While traditional pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast away grime, soft washing is a much gentler, more precise approach.
At North Shore Painter, we use a specialized, eco-friendly cleaning solution that does the heavy lifting for us. We apply this mixture to lift and break down dirt, mold, mildew, and algae at the source, and then we rinse it away with a low-pressure stream of water. It’s effective, safe, and incredibly satisfying to watch!
When Should You Call Us for a Soft Wash?
You might be wondering, "How do I know if I need a soft wash instead of a traditional pressure wash?" If you have surfaces that are a bit sensitive or prone to damage, soft washing is the way to go! You should definitely give us a call if you need to clean:
- Stucco: This material is beautiful but can be fragile. Soft washing cleans it perfectly without chipping or cracking the surface.
- Siding: Whether it’s vinyl, wood, or fiber cement, soft washing removes the buildup without the risk of water forcing its way behind the panels.
- Roofs: Your roof protects you from the elements—let’s treat it gently! Our soft washing method clears away those unsightly black streaks (gloeocapsa magma) without damaging your shingles or tiles.
- Delicate Decor: If you have intricate woodwork or other fragile exterior features, our eco-friendly soft wash keeps them looking pristine.
