Why Soft Wash Is the Preferred Cleaning Method

Could your property use some freshening up? Sometimes all it takes is a good wash. Cleaning the exterior surfaces on your property will get rid of accumulated dirt and grime and reveal the attractive surface beneath. Your property will look bright and as good as new after a good clean. A good clean will also help to protect the surfaces from damage such as staining and peeling by getting rid of mold, algae, dirt and grime. We at Crystal Clean A1 Window Services provide soft washing services for cleaning exterior surfaces. This method of cleaning exterior surfaces is the preferred method of cleaning for various reasons.

Power washing may seem like the better solution as it eliminates dirt and stains in what seems like an instant. However, the high pressure can scrape surfaces resulting in damage to your finish. In addition, spraying surfaces with water at high pressure will gradually erode the surface. Water will penetrate through cracks and crevices on the surfaces to cause structural damage below.

Soft washing involves the application of a cleaning solution on the surfaces to eradicate organisms such as algae and mold as well as to loosen dirt, grime and stains. The water is applied at low pressure. It therefore doesn’t impact the structure of the surface. However, it is highly effective for cleaning and improving the appearance of surfaces. The cleaning solution helps to prevent the regrowth of mold, algae, lichens and other contaminants.

Pressure washing isn’t suitable for all types of surfaces. There are surfaces that are delicate and will easily be destroyed by the application of water at high pressure. Surfaces such as roof tiles, asphalt driveways and many types of siding are delicate and will deteriorate much faster when subjected to pressure washing.

Soft wash cleaning involves the application of cleaning solutions at low pressure. You can get rid of blemishes on surfaces without damaging the surface. The cleaning solution is applied on the surface and allowed to sit in order to kill organic contaminants as well as to lift dirt and stains. The solution may be rinsed off with clean water to get rid of debris. Soft washing is suitable for use on any surface. It is the cleaning method of choice for roofs, siding, asphalt driveways and many other types of external surfaces.

Power washing often involves the use of caustic solutions. These solutions are not environmentally friendly. They can cause harm to the surrounding plants and contaminate the soils. While these reagents may help to remove stubborn stains from surfaces, they can destroy your landscaping and cause damage to the soils that could prove to be irreversible. This will have a negative impact on the overall curb appeal of your home.

Soft wash cleaning involves the use of cleaning solutions that are safe for the environment. These solutions are effective at killing contaminants such as mold and algae but will not cause damage to plants. You don’t have to worry about covering plants that are near surfaces that will be sprayed.

The solutions used are also biodegradable. This means that they will not contaminate the soils around your property when washed out. You can achieve a beautiful exterior without worrying about poisoning the soil on your property.
