Cleaning your siding shouldn’t damage it. Makes sense, right?
Still, pressure washing remains the overwhelmingly popular choice for siding cleaning in the Lower mainland.
But there’s a better way. Softwashing achieves more than pressure washing, with no risk of damage.

Softwashing is gentle cleaning process that involves a low pressure (80-100 PSI) chemical application, followed by a rinse to remove dead organics and loosened up grime. The pressure used is dramatically lower than that of a pressure washer (800-5000 PSI), and is similar to garden house pressure.
Once the chemical treatment has been applied, we let it dwell to break down any organics that may be growing on your siding. Some areas with stuborn stains or grime may need a second coat, or some gentle agitation with a soft brush.
The final step is always rinsing your siding to ensure it is not only sterilized, but free from dead organics, dirt, and grime.
Once the initial roof clean has been performed, or if their was no previous moss or algae growth, a maintenance program is all the is necessary to keep your roof clean. The aspect and pitch of your roof, the proximity of trees and location within the GVRD all affect how quickly moss and algae will return. We will assess these factors and put together a customized plan that involves a retreating your roof on a scheduled program. The average roof requires a re-treatment every 2 to 3 years however this can vary depending on the above mentioned factors. We often will include a gutter clean with this aspect of our maintenance program that helps reduce costs by combining two services into one visit.
