FAQ

What is soft washing?

Soft washing is a cleaning method that uses low-pressure water combined with specialized cleaning solutions to safely remove dirt, algae, mold, and other contaminants from surfaces. Unlike traditional pressure washing, soft washing effectively kills the microorganisms that cause staining, ensuring longer-lasting results.

How does soft washing differ from pressure washing?

The main difference is the pressure used: soft washing employs low pressure to avoid damaging surfaces, while pressure washing uses high pressure that can lead to surface erosion. Additionally, soft washing treatments last significantly longer, often up to four times as long as pressure washing.

What surfaces can you clean using soft washing?

Johnson's Xtreme Softwash can clean a variety of surfaces, including:

  • Roofs
  • Vinyl siding
  • Brick
  • Decks
  • Concrete
  • Fences

Are your cleaning solutions safe for the environment?

Yes, our cleaning solutions are 100% eco-friendly and have low VOC (volatile organic compounds) emissions. They are non-toxic and safe for surrounding areas.

Will soft washing my home or business kill my plants?

Soft washing, when done properly, should not harm your plants. However, the chemicals used in soft washing, such as bleach or other cleaning agents, can potentially damage or kill plants if they come into direct contact. To prevent this, professional soft washing services like ours take precautions, such as:

  1. Pre-wetting plants: Watering the plants before starting the wash helps dilute any chemicals that might drift or spill onto them.
  2. Covering delicate plants: Sensitive or valuable plants can be covered to protect them from overspray.
  3. Rinsing after washing: After the cleaning is finished, the plants are typically rinsed with water to ensure no harmful chemicals remain.

What kind of results can I expect?

Soft washing not only removes visible stains but also eliminates the underlying microbes responsible for discoloration. Many customers report that our treatments keep their surfaces clean for over a year.
