A Safer Way to Clean Your Property
Soft washing is a professional exterior cleaning method that uses low-pressure water and specialised cleaning solutions to safely remove mould, algae, mildew, bacteria, dirt and other contaminants from exterior surfaces.
Unlike traditional pressure cleaning, which relies on high-pressure water to blast away dirt, soft washing uses specially formulated cleaning solutions to treat the source of contamination before gently rinsing the surface clean.
This makes soft washing the ideal solution for many residential and commercial properties, especially where delicate or painted surfaces require cleaning without the risk of damage.
How Does Soft Washing Work?
Soft washing is a two-step cleaning process.
First, professional cleaning solutions are applied to the surface. These solutions work to break down mould, algae, mildew, bacteria and other organic growth at the source.
The surface is then rinsed using low-pressure water, safely removing contaminants without damaging the underlying material.
Because the biological growth is treated rather than simply washed away, soft washing often provides longer-lasting results than pressure cleaning alone.
What Can Be Soft Washed?
Soft washing is suitable for a wide range of exterior surfaces, including:
- House exteriors
- Painted walls
- Render
- Roofs
- Gutters
- Eaves
- Fences
- Outdoor furniture
- Solar panels
- Commercial buildings
- Strata properties
Why Choose Soft Washing?
Soft washing offers several advantages over traditional cleaning methods.
Safe for Delicate Surfaces
Low-pressure cleaning reduces the risk of damage to painted, rendered and other delicate exterior surfaces.
Longer Lasting Results
By treating mould, algae and bacteria at their source, soft washing helps slow their return.
Improves Street Appeal
Soft washing restores the appearance of your property by removing unsightly stains, dirt and biological growth.
Helps Protect Your Property
Removing mould, algae and other contaminants can help reduce long-term staining and deterioration of exterior surfaces.
Environmentally Responsible
Professional soft washing uses carefully selected cleaning solutions and controlled application methods to deliver effective cleaning while minimising environmental impact.
Is Soft Washing Right for Your Property?
If your home or business has mould, algae, mildew, cobwebs or general dirt build-up on painted or delicate surfaces, soft washing is often the safest and most effective solution.
An experienced exterior cleaning professional can assess your property and recommend the best cleaning method based on the surface and level of contamination.
