Soft Washing in Lawrenceburg, IN
Soft washing is the right way to clean the surfaces a pressure washer would damage — vinyl and fiber-cement siding, stucco, painted trim, and every kind of roof. We apply a cleaning solution that kills algae, mold, and mildew at the root, then rinse with low pressure, so the clean holds far longer than a blast-and-go pressure wash.
What soft washing does
Kills algae, mold, and mildew at the root with a low-pressure application of cleaning solution, then gently rinses.
Cleans siding, stucco, brick, painted trim, and roofs without forcing water behind panels or stripping finishes.
Reaches the pores, cracks, and shaded areas where growth starts, leaving surfaces clean for far longer than pressure alone.
What it does not do
- ✕Is not a substitute for pressure washing on baked-on concrete, oil, or rust — those need controlled pressure and the right chemistry.
- ✕Will not remove existing etching or pitting already done to glass, paint, or shingles by prior damage.
- ✕Does not use hot water or specialty equipment we have not confirmed we use — ask and we will tell you exactly what we bring.
Why Ohio Valley siding and roofs turn green
Humidity and shade on the north and east walls grow algae and mildew that turn a clean wall green in one season. On roofs, the airborne algae that causes black streaks feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads down every north-facing slope with the rain.
Because the growth is alive, blasting it off with pressure only removes the visible part — the root stays and regrows the next humid season. Soft washing kills the organism at the source, which is why the clean lasts longer on siding and roofs here.
Check your property in five minutes
- 1Walk the perimeter and look for green or black discoloration, especially on north and east walls and under overhangs.
- 2Check the roof slopes (from the ground, with binoculars) for black streaks running down from the ridges.
- 3Look for dark patches under trees, gutters, or anywhere water sits and shade keeps it damp.
- 4Touch a discolored area with a gloved hand — if it is slimy, it is live growth that soft washing targets.
- 5Note how long since the last clean; growth returns fastest on shaded, damp surfaces.
This self-check is general guidance, not an inspection. Confirm any specific HOA, insurer, or warranty requirement against your own documents.
