So, how do we achieve such standout results? With a ‘soft washing’ method that works to effectively clean and sanitise exterior surfaces with mild chemicals and thorough yet low pressure equipment.
Read on as we discuss the differences between soft washing and chemical cleaning… and discover exactly why we believe the soft washing system is the superior method to cleaning your homes.
What is soft washing?
Soft washing is an extremely effective, yet low-pressure cleaning method used to clean buildings, in particular houses. Soft washing takes a gentle approach to cleaning, firstly applying a detergent spray to the exterior walls of the building. Following this, the exterior cladding is scrubbed with soft-bristled brushes to remove dirt and grime. Next, the house is rinsed entirely clean with low-pressure pumps.
What is chemical cleaning?
Unlike soft washing, chemical cleaning methods use high pressure water and harsh chemicals to remove the above contaminants from surfaces. Unfortunately, these traditional high-pressure methods can cause irreversible damage and marks to a surface, as well as forcing water in behind cladding and into cavities around the house.
The benefits of soft washing:
- It uses less water and makes less noise
- It’s safe for all known building materials
- It kills the bacteria left behind by pressure washing
- It doesn’t damage the surface or exaggerate the weathering affect
- The results last longer than chemical cleaning
- It’s more cost effective
