House wash/soft wash method

Soft washing is a cleaning method, using low pressure and specialized solutions (typically Algaecides, water, and sometimes a surfactant) to safely remove mildew, bacteria, algae and other organic stains from roofs and other building exteriors. It is so named to differentiate the method from pressure washing. The majority of exterior building material manufacturers recommend a low-pressure, algaecide or detergent assisted application, as the preferred method for cleaning your home in order to prevent damage to the multiple surfaces.

Soft washing is achieved using an electric, air diaphragm, or any High volume/Low pressure sprayer to apply a water-based, biodegradable disinfecting cleaning solution to kill the mold, mildew, bacteria, algae, fungus, moss and more on exterior home and building surfaces.

Soft washing Equipment is distinctly different than power and pressure washing equipment. The electric diaphragm pump applies the cleaning solution at 40-80 PSI. The equipment used for soft washing may also have telescoping handles so that the cleaning solution can easily reach roof eaves, upper story windows, and other such areas, without this added pressure involved with a pressure washer.

  You should never use pressure to clean the exterior of your home, as this will almost always cause damage to the surfaces! Dirty Jobs uses only the best, industry leading equipment to get the job done quickly and efficiently!
