Soft washing pairs controlled, low-pressure water with cleaning solutions to remove organic buildup from your home’s exterior. Unlike high-pressure washing, it is safe for vinyl siding, painted trim, stucco, wood and asphalt shingles.
Jacksonville’s heat, humidity and salt air let mold and algae regrow fast. Soft washing treats the biological growth directly, which slows the return of staining compared with pressure alone.
