Pressure vs. soft wash
Which One Does Your Job Need?
01
Soft Washing
02
Pressure Washing
Low pressure, about the force of a garden hose, paired with biodegradable detergents that kill algae, mold and mildew at the root. Used on roofs, siding, painted wood and anything fragile.
High-pressure water and surface cleaners that strip oil, rust, tire marks and embedded grime. Used on concrete, brick, pavers, dumpster pads and heavy equipment.

Why It Matters
04
How We Decide
High pressure on a roof strips shingle granules and can void your warranty. A soft wash on an oil-stained driveway does nothing. Using the wrong one costs you either way.
We look at the surface, not the calendar. Most jobs use both: soft wash the house, pressure wash the concrete, all in the same visit.
For Your Home
House & Siding Washing
SOFT WASH — Low pressure and detergent to remove algae, mold and oxidation without damaging siding, paint or seals.
Driveways & Sidewalks
PRESSURE WASH — Surface cleaners and high pressure to lift deep-set oil stains, tire marks and grime from concrete.
Decks & Patios
SOFT WASH — Gentle cleaning for wood, composite and stone so the finish comes back without splintering or etching.
Fences & Retaining Walls
SOFT WASH — Removes years of built-up dirt and green growth from wood and vinyl; stone and block get pressure where it's safe.
Roof Soft Washing
SOFT WASH — Kills black streaks and lichen at the root with low-pressure systems that protect your shingle warranty.
Gutter Brightening
SOFT WASH — Removes tiger stripes and oxidation so your gutters match the rest of the house again.
