Soft Washing
At Pacific Windows, we specialize in professional Soft Washing, a gentle yet highly effective cleaning method designed to safely restore the appearance of your home’s exterior. Unlike traditional high-pressure cleaning, soft washing uses low-pressure application combined with specially formulated cleaning solutions to remove dirt, grime, algae, mildew, moss, and other organic buildup without damaging delicate surfaces. Our cleaning solutions utilize sodium hypochlorite, a biodegradable disinfectant that effectively eliminates organic growth at its source and, when properly applied and rinsed, naturally breaks down into salt and water. This process not only leaves your home looking cleaner and brighter but also helps prevent organic growth from quickly returning, providing longer-lasting results while protecting the surfaces you depend on.
Why Choose Soft Washing Over Pressure Washing?
While pressure washing has its place for tough, durable surfaces like concrete and brick, it can be too aggressive for more delicate areas of your home. High pressure can cause:
- Water intrusion under siding
- Paint damage or chipping
- Shingle granule loss on roofs
- Etching or streaking on softer materials
Soft washing eliminates these risks. The low pressure technique ensures your surfaces are thoroughly cleaned without harm, making it the preferred method for home exteriors
Where We Use Soft Washing
House siding: Vinyl, wood, stucco, brick, and composite materials
Roof cleaning: Asphalt shingles, tile, and metal roofs
Gutters and downspouts: Removes algae and dark streaks
Fascia, soffits, and trim: Gently restores a clean, bright finish
Decks, patios, and fences: Removes organic buildup safely
Outdoor furniture and enclosures: Perfect for seasonal cleanups
Each surface type is treated with care using the proper solution mix and dwell time to ensure the best possible results
The Benefits
Choosing soft washing for your home offers several long term advantages:
1. Protects Your Home’s Materials
Soft washing cleans effectively without wearing down paint, shingles, or siding. This helps preserve your home’s value and extends the life of your exterior surfaces.
2. Improves Curb Appeal
Organic buildup can make your home look dull and aged. Soft washing restores your property’s original color and brightness, dramatically improving its overall appearance.
3. Kills Growth at the Root
Unlike traditional pressure washing, soft washing removes the spores and bacteria that cause algae and mildew, keeping your home cleaner for longer.
4. Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solutions
We use environmentally safe, biodegradable detergents that are tough on grime but gentle on your landscaping and pets.
5. Prevents Costly Repairs
Mold, algae, and moss can cause long-term damage to your home’s materials if left untreated. Regular soft washing helps prevent deterioration, saving you money in the long run
