Contrary to popular belief, cleaning your siding using high pressure doesn’t kill the green growing on your siding, and it will come back in a few short months. In fact, using high pressure is not the correct way to clean your home and can actually cause serious damage. We use an approach called soft-washing where we use a specialized mixture of soaps and detergents that will safely eliminate mold, mildew, and algae down to the spore.
We use an approach called soft-washing that will safely eliminate all mold, mildew, and algae growing on your home - both visible and nonvisible. Rather than use high pressure to blast the green color away, we spray your entire home with our specialized, environmentally-friendly cleaning solution. This soap will kill mold spores all the way down to the base (something high pressure cannot do!) This guarantees a complete coverage cleaning of your home, leaving you confident that your entire home has been cleaned, not just the “dirty-looking” spots.
No! The best part about our soft-wash process is that our chemicals will not hurt any plants or vegetation growing around your home, yet it will kill all of the growth on your siding and gutters! We do ask that all people and animals remain indoors or away from the area being cleaned in order to avoid direct contact with the chemicals, as well as flying debris caused by the occasional use of high pressure.
