House Washing Services for Siding & Exterior Surfaces
We provide professional house washing using a soft wash method that safely removes algae, dirt, and staining from siding and exterior surfaces. Instead of relying on high pressure, we clean at the source—delivering a deeper, longer-lasting result without the risk of damage.
Soft Washing Services for Homes & Exterior Surfaces
Not all exterior surfaces are built to handle high pressure.
In fact, using excessive pressure on materials like vinyl siding, stucco, aluminum, Hardie board, wood, and soffits can lead to:
- Cracked or warped siding
- Water forced behind exterior panels
- Damaged paint and finishes
- Premature wear and costly repairs

What is Soft washing?
Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning process that uses specialized solutions to break down and remove organic buildup at its source.
Instead of blasting surfaces with force, soft washing:
- Eliminates algae, mold, mildew, and bacteria
- Breaks down dirt and grime at a chemical level
- Cleans surfaces evenly without streaking or damage
The result is a deeper, longer-lasting clean that doesn’t just improve appearance—it actually treats the problem causing the staining.
Why Soft Washing Works Better Than High Pressure
Most staining on homes isn’t just dirt—it’s living organic growth.
Things like algae and mildew embed themselves into surfaces. High pressure might remove what you see temporarily, but it often leaves behind the root cause.
Soft washing solves this by:
- Killing organic growth at the source
- Preventing rapid regrowth
- Providing a more uniform, consistent finish
Surfaces That Should Always Be Soft Washed
Soft washing is the recommended method for cleaning more delicate or porous exterior materials.
These include:
- Vinyl siding
- Stucco
- Painted wood surfaces
- Hardie board / fiber cement siding
- Aluminum siding and trim
- Soffits and fascia
- Screened-in porches and enclosures
