Residential Power Washing

Different surfaces require different levels of “soft washing”. For instance, the proper way the clean a roof is to use low, or what many refer to as “non pressure roof cleaning”. Well, if water is coming out of the hose, or wand, there is some pressure, but the non pressure term is more to stress the point that the surface is receiving almost no agitation what so ever during the cleaning process. So technically this would still classify as soft washing.

There are, however, exceptions where using a bit more pressure is acceptable. Mainly these exceptions are limited to brick, concrete or masonry type surfaces, but even then the pressure is just part of the equation; the cleaning solutions are the real story. Soft washing is possible through the extraordinary power of chemistry. Today there are many high quality cleaning compounds that are available to aid in cleaning just about any surface. A quality professional in the pressure washing or roof cleaning trade will have a good working knowledge of many different kinds of cleaning solutions and how to safely and effectively use them in the soft washing process.
