House Soft Washing
Siding collects algae and mildew, worst on the shaded sides of the house. We wash it at low pressure with a detergent matched to the material, so the staining comes off without the color going with it.

Each surface on your home wants a different method. Here is what we do and how we do it.
Roof Soft Washing
The dark streaks on a roof are algae rather than dirt, and they hold moisture against the shingles. We treat it at low pressure and let the chemistry do the work.

Driveway & Hardscape
Concrete and pavers hold dirt in a way that shows, especially against a clean house. A rotary surface cleaner works the whole slab evenly, instead of the striping a wand leaves behind.

Decks, Porches & Fencing
Wood needs a gentler approach than concrete. We clean it at a pressure it can actually take, then use a brightener to pull the color back toward where it started.

Soft washing vs. pressure washing
What is actually happening to your roof in each case.
Pressure on the wrong surface
- Blasts protective granules off shingles
- Forces water behind siding and into walls
- Strips and lifts paint
- Dislodges granules, which GAF's own bulletin ties to premature shingle failure
- Looks clean for a few weeks, because the algae is still alive
Soft washing, done right
- Lifts the algae, mildew, and lichen staining, at the root
- Low pressure, so nothing is driven where it does not belong
- Safe on paint, mortar, window seals, and fixtures
- Leaves the granule layer where it is
- Cleans down to the root, so it does not come straight back
