What's Included in Our Soft Washing Service
High water pressure can crack vinyl siding, strip paint, erode stucco, or force water deep behind your walls, causing structural rot. Our soft washing method uses gentle low pressure—similar to a garden hose—combined with specialized, eco-friendly detergents to clean your home's exterior without surface damage.
Our professional soft washing service includes:
Safe for All Siding Types
Gently cleans vinyl, stucco, fiber cement (Hardie board), brick, aluminum, and painted wood siding.
Removes Algae and Mildew at the Root
Destroys black algae, green mold, lichen, and mildew spores rather than just blasting away surface dirt.
Protects Your Paint & Materials
Preserves delicate finishes, prevents paint chipping, and maintains your manufacturer warranties.
Improves Curb Appeal
Instantly eliminates dark streaks and green patches, restoring your home's bright, clean appearance.

"Used them to wash 4 commercial center's roofs, sidewalks, and awnings. Professional service, diligent work, and easy to setup. Highly recommend!"

Our walkways, steps, retaining walls, and common areas look cleaner than they have in years… They were professional, courteous, and respectful of both residents and the landscaping throughout the project. I would not hesitate to recommend them to other communities looking for quality power washing services."
"Great job transforming a gray and faded IPE wood deck into almost like new condition. Easy to work with and reasonably priced! Highly recommend."
Soft Washing vs. High-Pressure Washing
Understanding when to use soft washing versus high-pressure washing is key to preventing accidental home damage:
Soft Washing (Low Pressure + Detergents)
Uses gentle water pressure paired with plant-safe cleaning solutions. It is designed specifically for delicate materials like siding, stucco, painted surfaces, and roofs. It kills organic growth at the roots rather than relying on force.
Pressure Washing (High Water Pressure)
Uses high physical water pressure to blast away heavy dirt, clay, and motor oil. It is restricted to hard, non-porous surfaces like concrete driveways, stone steps, and brick walkways.
Our Step-by-Step Soft Washing Process
Property Pre-Inspection
We walk your home's perimeter to check siding conditions, close open windows, and protect electrical outlets.
Plant Protection Pre-Rinse
We thoroughly soak all nearby flowers, shrubs, and lawn areas with fresh water to shield them from cleaning solutions.
Low-Pressure Soap Application
We apply our biodegradable cleaning mix at low pressure to break down dirt, mold, algae, and mildew.
Dwell Time & Organic Elimination
We let the solution sit briefly so it can sanitize the surface and kill algae spores at the root.
Gentle Fresh-Water Rinse
We wash away the loosened dirt, dead algae, and soap using low pressure, followed by a final fresh-water rinse of all surrounding landscaping.
Complete Exterior Pressure Washing Services in Arlington, VA
Pressure Washing
We use high-pressure water streams to blast away deep dirt, clay, and grime from durable outdoor surfaces. It is ideal for restoring concrete sidewalks, brick walls, and solid stone structures.
Power Washing
Power washing uses heated, high-pressure water to dissolve heavy oil, grease, gum, and ground-in dirt. Our trucks carry built-in hot-water systems designed specifically for tough driveway stains and commercial surfaces.
Roof Cleaning
Dark streaks on shingle roofs are caused by algae growth. We apply an ARMA-compliant, non-pressure chemical treatment that kills algae and lichen at the root without stripping shingle granules or damaging your roof.
Window Cleaning
Clean, clear windows instantly brighten your home. We clear away dirt, hard water spots, and pollen from exterior glass surfaces for a spot-free finish.
Hardscape Cleaning
Stone patios, brick walkways, and paver driveways lose color over time. Our specialized crews deep-clean your hardscapes to remove dirt, grime, algae, and organic buildup while restoring a cleaner, refreshed appearance.
Gutter Cleaning
Heavy tree cover across Arlington leads to clogged gutters. We clear leaves and organic debris to ensure proper water drainage and protect your home's foundation from costly water damage.
