The Dangers of Exterior Mold

Exterior mold isn’t just an aesthetic issue—it’s a serious threat to the health and integrity of your home. Mold and mildew buildup can eat away at your siding, shingles, and paint, leading to costly repairs. Left unchecked, mold can even seep into your indoor environment, potentially affecting air quality and contributing to respiratory issues.

Living in North Carolina, where humidity is high, mold can grow rapidly on various exterior surfaces such as roofs, siding, driveways, and decks. Regular cleaning is necessary to avoid structural damage and keep your property looking its best. But, not all cleaning methods are equally effective or safe for your home.

Why Soft Washing is Superior to Pressure Washing

Traditional pressure washing may seem like a quick fix, but it can cause unintended damage. The high-pressure water can strip away paint, chip siding, and even weaken roofing materials, leading to more expensive repairs. While pressure washing blasts away mold temporarily, it doesn’t treat the root of the problem, allowing mold to return quickly.

Soft washing, on the other hand, is a gentler, more thorough cleaning method that uses a combination of eco-friendly cleaning solutions and low-pressure water. This method not only removes mold, algae, and dirt but also kills the spores at the root, preventing mold from returning for a longer period of time. Plus, it’s safe for all types of surfaces, including delicate ones like wood, stucco, and vinyl siding.

Long-Lasting Mold Prevention with Soft Washing

One of the greatest advantages of soft washing is its ability to prevent mold from coming back. Our cleaning solutions are designed to sanitize your exterior surfaces, killing off mold spores that would otherwise regenerate after traditional cleaning methods. By addressing the underlying causes of mold and mildew, soft washing keeps your home’s exterior clean and fresh for a longer time, reducing the need for frequent maintenance.

Moldy Surfaces That Can Be Cleaned with Soft Washing

Soft washing is a versatile and effective method for cleaning mold off a wide variety of exterior surfaces. Its low-pressure application and specialized cleaning solutions make it safe and efficient for cleaning mold from the following surfaces:

1. Siding – Soft washing is perfect for cleaning mold from vinyl, aluminum, wood, and fiber cement siding without causing damage.
2. Roofs – Soft washing can safely remove mold, algae, and lichen from asphalt shingles, metal roofing, rubber, and tile roofs, preserving their integrity.
3. Decks and Patios – Wood, composite decking, concrete, stone, and paver surfaces can all be cleaned effectively without the risk of damage that pressure washing can cause.
4. Fences – Wooden, vinyl, and metal fences benefit from soft washing to remove mold and algae that can degrade materials over time.
5. Driveways and Walkways – Soft washing can clean mold from concrete, brick, and paver driveways or walkways, ensuring a spotless and safe surface.
6. Stucco and Brick – These delicate materials can be cleaned thoroughly without the high-pressure damage associated with pressure washing.
7. Gutters and Downspouts – Mold and algae buildup on gutters and downspouts can be safely removed with soft washing, helping to maintain proper water drainage and curb appeal.
8. Exterior Furniture – Soft washing is gentle enough to clean mold from outdoor furniture made of wood, plastic, or metal, keeping it looking fresh and extending its life.
9. Playground Equipment – Nobody wants to see their child playing on a moldy playground. Soft washing will keep your playground equipment looking pristine, and keep your kids breathing in healthy air and touching cleaner surfaces while playing. 

In all of these cases, soft washing not only removes visible mold but also sanitizes surfaces to prevent regrowth, providing a longer-lasting clean.
