What is Soft Washing?
Soft washing is a cleaning method that uses low pressure and specialized solutions (typically distinct from high-pressure water) to safely remove mildew, bacteria, algae, and other organic stains from your home’s exterior. It is distinct from pressure washing, which relies on the force of water.
Why High Pressure is Bad for Siding
Using high-pressure water on vinyl siding, stucco, or asphalt shingles can verify damage them by:
- Forcing water behind the siding (leading to mold).
- Stripping granules off roof shingles.
- Cracking brittle vinyl in colder weather.
