What is soft washing?

Soft washing is a low-pressure exterior cleaning method. A solution containing a biocide and a surfactant is applied at low pressure, left to kill algae, mould, lichen and bacteria, then rinsed off. It cleans by killing the growth rather than blasting it off, which makes it safer for delicate surfaces and keeps them clean for longer.

  • Get a fixed written price that lists every surface included
  • Make sure an outside tap is working and that there is access to all sides of the property
  • Move cars, furniture and pots away from the walls and keep pets indoors on the day
