Fungus and bacteria are not just an aesthetics issue. These microorganisms are actually eating and decomposing your surfaces at an alarming rate. A soft washing system cleans your surfaces and kills all of the fungus growing on them, providing superior results that last 4 to 6 times longer than pressure washing.
Curb appeal is an important factor when it comes to what home buyers are looking for. Having your home professionally soft washed will remove any unsightly dirt, mold, or mildew that may be growing on it, restoring your home’s exterior to a like-new condition. Soft washing helps you freshen up and preserve your home’s appearance, and will become a major value to potential buyers.
Have you ever noticed that your siding or roof has a green tint or might look extra dirty at the end of a long winter? This is likely due to the buildup of mold, mildew, moss, and algae on those outdoor surfaces. These substances can flourish in winter weather conditions, thanks to the often damp weather. Any accumulated dirt can also help create ideal conditions for them to grow during the season.
They can grow on just about any surface, especially roofs and siding, including wood, vinyl, stucco, and more. A good cleaning, especially before the winter weather hits, can help prevent it from taking hold.
Much of the dirt, dust, mold, and other allergen materials that accumulate in certain areas of your property and roof are ending up in your home. These things can cause serious health issues to you and your family, and cost you tens of thousands of dollars to repair.
Fungi and mold are bad for our health, but they can be even more dangerous to young children or individuals who suffer from asthma and respiratory problems. If these mold particles spread into your window frames or air ducts, they can eventually spread throughout your home and create a polluted environment. Soft washing your home will kill these unwanted bacteria, and provide a more healthy, comfortable living environment.
Soft washing is the best way to clean and prepare surfaces, such as decks or exterior walls, for painting, refinishing, or staining. It also ensures that hard-to-reach areas within crevices and cracks are thoroughly cleaned.
Pressure washers utilize from 3 to 8 gallons of water per minute (gpm). In one hour of cleaning, a power washer can use from 180 gallons upwards to 480 gallons of water. Conversely, soft washing only uses approximately 60 gallons of cleaning solution, which consists of about 40 gallons of water.
Oftentimes, people hesitate when they hear the word “chemicals,” however it’s really not such a dirty word. In reality, everything is a chemical, even water (hydrogen dioxide).
The chemicals utilized in soft washing help break down contaminants and infestations, so they can be quickly rinsed away. They do all the work without all the pressure. Our chemicals are water-based, ship non-hazardous, and are biodegradable, meaning they break down into carbon and water within twenty (20) days of their introduction into the environment; leaving no contaminants behind.
Soft washing is a cleaning method that uses a low pressure washing technique, along with a mixture of algaecides, bleach, surfactants and water, to safely clean exterior surfaces of organic stains, mildew and algae.
Most dirt and discolorations on properties is organic growth from carbon or bio film. Scientifically this can be treated to halt the growth at the root leaving a fresh and clean look and feel to the building.
Softwashing uses only one-third of the water that pressure or power washing does, lasts 4 – 6 times longer, and doesn’t erode or damage the surface like power washing often can.
Softwashing uses water-based, biodegradable chemicals to break down dirt and grime, eliminate bug nests and webs, and kill mold, mildew, algae, and bacteria – leaving the surface clean and sanitized.
Softwashing also does far more than pressure washing because it does more than simply clean your surfaces. The products utilized in our Soft Wash System don’t just tidy; they penetrate, sanitize, and eliminate the root of the issue.
Softwashing your roof or other surfaces is more like insect control – the mix of safe, eco-friendly chemicals ensures that the microorganisms that create buildup are not just partially swept away, but eradicated.
After a softwash, your home’s roof, siding, deck, sidewalk, and more will look as close to new as possible. Not only will your home look beautiful, but it will increase its value up to 5%.
Mold and mildew are age-old culprits in causing illnesses. While small amounts won’t typically cause harm, large accumulations on homes can negatively impact health and breathing over time. Once it’s established outside, such as on a roof, it can quickly gain access to the home’s interior. Softwashing not only removes mold and mildew, but it also disinfects bacteria and other disease-causing organisms. Regular application of a softwash can prevent mold from spreading, making your home a much safer place. Maintaining regular appointments to have your home softwashed prevents oxidation buildup and other expensive problems from happening.
Lichen, algae, mold, and mildew attract a wide variety of pests. Birds, rodents, roaches, and other insects will eat algae, bacteria and other pests will burrow into the environment they create. Keeping your home clean eliminates pests’ homes and forces them to search for a more inviting (and dirty) place to burrow. Rodents can chew through walls and birds will make nests in rafters, causing major damage and health concerns. It’s best to never give pests the opportunity to nest and get established anywhere in your home. Softwashing provides an effective layer of defense in the battle to keep your home pest-free.
