  The soft wash process is a cleaning technique used to safely and effectively remove dirt, grime, algae, mold, mildew, and other contaminants from various surfaces, such as the exterior of buildings, roofs, fences, decks, and more.

Unlike traditional pressure washing, which uses high-pressure water to clean surfaces, soft washing employs a low-pressure system along with specialized cleaning solutions to achieve the desired results.

It is especially useful for delicate or sensitive surfaces that could be damaged by high-pressure washing.

 Here's an overview of the soft wash process:

1. Assessment: The cleaning professional assesses the surface to be cleaned to determine the type and level of contaminants present. They also identify any delicate areas that may require special attention.
2. Cleaning solution preparation: A biodegradable and eco-friendly cleaning solution is mixed according to the specific needs of the cleaning job. The solution typically includes a blend of water, surfactants, algaecides, and other cleaning agents that target and break down the contaminants.
3. Application: The cleaning solution is applied to the surface using a low-pressure sprayer, soft wash system, or a handheld pump. The low-pressure application ensures that the solution is gently spread across the surface without causing damage.
4. Dwell time: After the cleaning solution is applied, it needs some time to work effectively. This dwell time allows the solution to penetrate and break down the dirt, algae, mold, and other contaminants.
5. Rinse: Once the dwell time is complete, the surface is rinsed thoroughly using a gentle rinse. The rinse removes the loosened contaminants and any residual cleaning solution.
6. Repeat (if necessary): In some cases, particularly when dealing with stubborn stains or heavy growths, a second application and rinse may be required to achieve optimal results.

Soft washing is commonly used for cleaning various exterior surfaces around homes and buildings, such as siding, roofs, stucco, brick, and more.

It provides a safer and longer-lasting cleaning solution compared to high-pressure washing, as it doesn't cause damage to the surfaces and can effectively prevent the regrowth of certain contaminants.

It's essential to hire a professional soft wash service, as they have the expertise, equipment, and proper cleaning solutions to ensure a thorough and safe cleaning process for your specific needs.
