What Is Soft Wash Cleaning?
Soft wash cleaning refers to a unique exterior cleaning method that uses a low-pressure stream and specialized cleaning solutions. A soft washing system typically comprises a pressure washer with a wide spray or special low-pressure nozzle and a biodegradable cleaning solution.
Cleaning solutions used for soft washing your roof remove dirt, stains, mold, and any unwanted organisms living on your roof.
How Does Soft Washing Work?
Unlike pressure washing, which forcefully removes dirt from the surface, soft washing involves mixing water with a biodegradable chemical solution. When sprayed over the roof, the solution soaks into the dirt and deteriorates it from the inside.
After application, the roof cleaner will let the biodegradable solution sit for a while to kill mold, mildew, bacteria, moss, fungus, and more before rinsing it off. Soft washing doesn’t damage other exterior surfaces of your home or harm your plants.
Why Soft Washing Is Safer for Your Roof
Roofing experts prefer soft-washing roofs because it prevents damage from high amounts of pressure. High pressure can loosen the granules of your shingles, but the delicate action of soft washing cleans shingles carefully without causing any damage or forcing the shingles off.
Soft washing effectively cleans shingles, clay tiles, concrete tiles, metal roofs, and more. It works well on concrete tiles because it washes them without removing any sealant or glaze covering the surface. We recommend soft-wash roof cleaning for effective and safe cleaning.
Why Should You Soft-Wash Your Roof?
If you have black streaks all over your shingles, that’s probably Gloeocapsa magma (algae). Algae thrive in hot and humid conditions, and they can damage your roof significantly. A roof infested with algae loses its ability to reflect UV light, and the shingles eventually start to rot.
Soft washing effectively removes algae, among other unwanted substances, without damaging your shingles and voiding your warranty. A soft wash can clean your roof effectively while preserving the roof’s structural integrity. With a soft wash, you won’t have to worry about costly repairs or premature replacement.
