Our soft washing services provide a better, safer alternative to standard pressure washing.
When it comes to exterior cleaning, the method that most people are familiar with is pressure washing. This technique uses highly-pressurized jets of water to remove dirt and grime, and it is used to clean walkways, driveways, siding, brickwork, and more. What many people are not aware of, however, is that the water pressure used in pressure washing is often so intense that it damages the target surface—pressure washing has been known to strip paint off siding, crack or blast away roof shingles, and even crack concrete. If this sounds like a bad deal to you, you are not alone. Our team at Ocean Waves SoftWash has long been aware of the drawbacks of pressure washing, so we offer soft washing as a gentler, more effective alternative.
As you can probably guess, soft washing takes its name from the fact that it uses gentler, softer water pressure than is used in traditional pressure washing. Despite the lower water pressure, soft washing produces a more thorough clean and more long-lasting results because it addresses the root cause of dirt buildup—namely, the algae, mold, and mildew that trap dirt particles on your outdoor structures. Our team will first treat your surfaces with biodegradable cleaning solutions designed to kill these microorganisms, then use soft jets of water to wash everything away.
If you want to keep your property clean without running the risk of damaging your structures, just give us a call. Our soft washing services are safer and more effective than standard pressure washing, and we encourage you to give them a try.
