Our Soft Wash Services
Suitable For Delicate & Treated Finishes
Soft washing is commonly used where traditional pressure washing would be too aggressive. It allows organic growth, staining and discolouration to be treated at the source using low pressure and specialist solutions, rather than force.
We regularly use soft washing as part of:
- Roof cleaning, particularly tiled and slate roofs that are affected by moss
- Render cleaning, including monocouche, silicone and painted finishes
- Cladding cleaning, where surface coatings must be protected
- Pebbledash and roughcast walls
- Painted or coated exterior surfaces
- Moss, algae and lichen treatment on walls, roofs and façades
These services are often carried out as standalone treatments or, where appropriate, combined with related exterior cleaning, following an assessment of the surface and condition.

Domestic & Commercial Soft Washing
Residential & Managed Properties
Soft washing is widely used on residential properties, particularly for roofs and rendered walls, where maintaining appearance without causing damage is essential.
However, we also provide soft washing for commercial buildings, including cladding, facades and public-facing elevations. Work is planned around access, site requirements and operational needs, with full RAMS provided where required.
This makes soft washing suitable for:
- Shop fronts
- Private homes
- Apartment buildings
- Retail units
- Offices and commercial premises
- Managed and public sector properties
Soft Washing Vs Pressure Washing
Choosing The Correct Method Matters
Pressure washing will always be the most effective for hard surfaces such as driveways, patios and block paving. However, in areas where pressure washing is not appropriate, soft washing is the next best option.
The difference is not about one method being better than the other. It is about selecting the right approach for the surface in front of us.
As part of our exterior cleaning services, we assess each area individually and recommend either soft washing, pressure washing, or a combination of both, depending on the material, condition and level of contamination.
