Safe Exterior Cleaning Without Harsh Pressure
Soft washing is a specialist cleaning method designed for delicate exterior surfaces where aggressive pressure washing may not be suitable. It uses carefully applied cleaning treatments to target organic growth at the source, helping achieve long-lasting results while protecting your property.
What Is Soft Washing?
Unlike pressure washing, which relies mainly on high-pressure water, soft washing uses specialist cleaning solutions to treat and remove biological growth such as algae, moss, lichen, mould and mildew.
- Moss growth on roofs, walls and hard surfaces
- Green algae staining on render and exterior walls
- Lichen contamination on roofs, patios and paving
- Mould, mildew and organic staining
- Black spot and stubborn biological growth
What Is A Biocide Treatment?
A biocide treatment is applied to help kill remaining spores and slow the regrowth of moss, algae, lichen and other organic contaminants. It is often used after roof cleaning, render cleaning, patio cleaning or pressure washing to help surfaces stay cleaner for longer.
Roof Treatments
Biocide treatments can be applied after roof moss removal to help target remaining spores and reduce future moss and algae regrowth.
Render Cleaning
Soft washing is ideal for render cleaning, helping remove green algae, staining and discolouration without damaging delicate surfaces.
Patios & Driveways
Following pressure washing, treatments can help reduce the return of moss, algae and organic growth on patios, driveways and paving.
