Low pressure, safe for siding

House soft washing

What we clean

Everything the weather leaves on your home

A soft wash takes the whole exterior back to clean — not just the wall you notice from the driveway.

  • Algae, mildew, and mold growth
  • Spider webs and mud daubers
  • Rust stains on siding
  • General dirt and grime buildup

Safe on the surfaces high pressure would damage: vinyl siding, stucco, brick, and roof shingles. If your rust staining is heavy, our dedicated rust removal service goes further, and while we’re on site we can wash your deck, patio, or fence too.

The siding on the right is a real job — drag the handle, then see the rest of our work.

How we do it

Low pressure, strong results

Soft washing does the cleaning with the solution, not the pressure. High pressure stays where it belongs — on concrete.

  1. Walk-around and quote

    We look at your siding, note the problem areas, and quote the job free — with a response within 24 hours.

  2. Apply the solution

    Eco-friendly cleaning solutions go on at low pressure and do the work of breaking down algae, mildew, and grime.

  3. Rinse and walk-through

    A gentle rinse carries it all off, and we walk the house with you before we leave. 100% satisfaction is the standard.

Why not just pressure wash the house? High pressure can force water behind vinyl, etch stucco, and strip shingle granules. Soft washing gets the siding cleaner without putting the surface at risk — that is why it is the method we lead with.

Honest pricing

What affects the price

No mystery math. A house wash quote comes down to a few things you can see from the curb.

  • Size and stories — more wall takes more time, and second-story work is slower than first.
  • How far gone it is — a light annual refresh costs less than years of built-up growth.
  • Surface type — vinyl, stucco, and brick each get their own approach.
  • Access — tight landscaping, fences, and obstacles add handling time.

Seniors and military save 15% each — combinable to 30% — and disabled combat veterans may qualify for free service up to 2,500 sq ft. How the discounts work.

Common questions

House washing questions

Is soft washing safe for vinyl siding and roof shingles?

Yes. Soft washing uses low pressure with eco-friendly cleaning solutions, so it is safe for vinyl siding, stucco, brick, and delicate roof shingles — surfaces that high pressure can damage.

What is the difference between soft washing and power washing?

Power washing uses high-pressure water to clean hard surfaces like concrete and driveways. Soft washing uses low pressure with eco-friendly cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces such as siding, stucco, and roof shingles.

What does a house soft wash remove?

Algae, mildew, and mold growth, plus spider webs, mud daubers, and rust stains. For heavy rust staining we also offer a dedicated rust removal service.

Do you offer discounts on house washing?

Yes. We offer a 15% discount for senior citizens and a 15% discount for military personnel, combinable for up to 30% off. Disabled combat veterans may qualify for free service on up to 2,500 sq ft. See how the discounts work.
