What's the difference between soft washing and pressure washing, and which does my house need?
Pressure washing uses high-pressure water alone, which works well on tough surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure plus a cleaning solution to lift dirt, algae, and mold gently. For siding, stucco, and painted surfaces, soft washing is the right choice. It cleans thoroughly without the risk of damage that comes with high pressure.
Will soft washing damage my siding, paint, or landscaping?
No. Soft washing is gentle and low-pressure, and the right dilution does the work instead of force. We also pre-wet and sometimes cover sensitive plants and rinse thoroughly afterward, so your landscaping stays protected.
What causes the dirt, algae, and mold buildup on my siding in the first place?
Moisture and shade are the main culprits. Algae and mold thrive in damp, low-sunlight spots like north-facing walls and areas under eaves. Airborne dirt and pollen add to it over time, especially near trees or water.
Do you use chemicals, and are they safe for my kids, pets, and plants?
Yes, we use a low concentration of primarily SH (bleach) in our cleaning solution to kill mold and algae at the root, and our products are eco-friendly. We take precautions during the wash: keeping people and pets clear, protecting nearby plants, covering outlets and rinsing thoroughly. And once everything's dry, it's safe for normal use!
How often should I get my house exterior washed?
Once a year is a great baseline for most homes. Shaded, damp, and coastal properties with high exposure to salt, very common on the North Shore, may even benefit every 6 months since algae and mold regrow faster in those conditions.
Will this help protect my siding long-term, not just look nice?
Yes. Left alone, algae and mold can break down paint and siding materials over time. Regular washing removes that growth before it causes lasting damage, helping your exterior last longer and hold up better.
