Soft House Washing

What This Service Involves

High-pressure spray can force water behind lap siding and crack aging paint, which is a real hazard on older Northwest homes. Our soft wash method relies on chemistry instead of force, letting cleaning agents do the work at a fraction of the pressure. This approach reaches into textured surfaces and shaded north walls where mildew thrives in our marine climate. The result is a thorough, even clean that leaves seals, trim, and finishes fully intact.

Benefits

Eliminates the danger of water pushed behind siding; Safe for aging paint and weathered finishes; Reaches textured and shaded surfaces evenly; Extends the time between cleanings

Our Process

1) Evaluate the home for pressure-sensitive materials and entry points; 2) Mix a detergent blend matched to the growth and surface; 3) Apply at low pressure and let it dwell fully; 4) Rinse with a gentle flow and confirm no streaking remains

What Affects the Cost

Home size and total wall area; Level of shading and resulting growth density; Detergent strength required for the buildup; Height and the equipment needed to reach it safely; Presence of fragile fixtures or historic trim

Best Time of Year

The drier stretches from June through September let the low-pressure rinse dry cleanly and slow future regrowth.
