When it comes to cleaning your home’s exterior, not all surfaces can handle the same level of pressure. While standard pressure washing is great for concrete and stone, delicate surfaces like shingles, vinyl siding, painted wood, or screen enclosures need a gentler approach. That’s where soft washing comes in—a low-pressure, high-impact cleaning method that removes dirt, mold, and mildew without damaging your property.
What Is Soft Washing?
Soft washing uses a specialized low-pressure spray combined with eco-friendly cleaning solutions to safely remove contaminants. Unlike traditional high-pressure washing, which relies on brute force, soft washing uses science—targeting the root of algae, bacteria, and grime growth and breaking it down at the source.
At Pro 221, we use soft washing on roofs, siding, lanais, screen cages, fences, and other sensitive surfaces where high pressure could cause cracking, discoloration, or material degradation.
Benefits of Soft Washing
✅ Gentle on Surfaces: Perfect for roof shingles, wood, painted trim, and older siding that could be damaged by high PSI.
✅ Lasting Clean: The cleaning solutions we use in soft washing kill mildew, mold, and algae at the root—so the results last longer than pressure washing alone.
✅ Eco-Friendly and Safe: Our detergents are biodegradable and safe for pets, plants, and people.
✅ Prepares Surfaces for Painting or Sealing: Ideal prep method for decks, walls, or fences that are going to be refinished.
✅ Enhances Curb Appeal: Brightens up your home without stripping paint or aging your surfaces.
