Frequently Asked Questions

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to clean hard surfaces like driveways, patios, and walkways. Soft washing (also called house washing) uses low pressure and eco-friendly cleaning solutions to safely remove dirt, mold, and algae from siding, roofs, and other delicate surfaces without causing damage. We do not use high-pressure washing on siding.

Nearby shrubs and gardens are pre-wet and rinsed before and after treatment to prevent damage, and we make sure outdoor areas are safe for pets once the cleaning is complete.
