Frequently Asked Questions
What is Softwashing ?
Soft washing is a technique that treats the infection of the stain and lets the cleaning solutions sanitize, doing 100% of the work, killing all mildew, algae and lichens at the root, not just the surface. This creates a longer lasting clean with no damaging pressure or harsh chemicals. Soft washing only uses 1/3 the water than pressure washing and is better for your home, family and the environment.
Why choose Softwashing vs Pressure washing ?
Pressure washing only relies on water and pressure to do the cleaning. This high pressure (1,500+ PSI) just blasts the surface and bacteria further in, leaving the root of the bacteria behind and possibly creating more damage to the surface. Soft washing uses low pressure (80 PSI) and relies on 100% biodegradable cleaning solutions to kill all bacteria at the root, without damage, resulting in a longer lasting clean for your property
Why is it Important to Eradicate all Bacteria?
When pressure washing leaves behind the filament root system of the bacteria, the bacteria will grow back faster. This can cause higher utility bills, unsightly curb appeal, increased allergies, shorter lifespan of the surface, insurance companies can even drop coverage on a roof that is "too dirty". So it is important for your investment that all bacteria is completely removed.
Is Soft Washing Environmentally Safe?
