Soft Washing vs. Power Washing

The age-old idea of blasting away grime with high water pressure is fading into the distant past.

Pressure Washing vs. Power Washing vs. Soft Washing… What’s the difference!??

While these three methods sound similar there are distinct differences between each. It is important to know which method is appropriate in meeting your cleaning needs to minimize risks and achieve long-lasting results.

Pressure washing and Power washing each clean surfaces by blasting high-pressured water. The difference between these two closely related methods is heat. Technically, the addition of hot water seperates power washing from pressure washing. Both methods can be effective for cleaning resilient surfaces capable of handling the pressure. However, without proper training each of these methods can prove to be dangerous to surrounding people, property, and belongings.

Soft washing eliminates the risks associated with high pressured water, by utilizing a low pressure water system and relying on specially tailored solutions to clean surfaces down to the microscopic level; resulting in longer-lasting cleaner results. In recent years it has become the preffered method of professionals and consumers alike.

Minimal Risks!

Soft washing takes the worry away. No more puncture holes in siding, cracks in masonry, or potential for injury due to risky high pressured water.

A truly cleaner result..

Cleaning the exterior of your home without the correct soap/chemical leaves contaminants remaining on the surface. Soft washing is the only way to assure mold, mildew, algae, and other organic growth are removed from your home, down to the micrscopic level. Resulting in a longer-lasting sparkling clean finish!
