Safer for roofs and painted surfaces
Many Cape Town properties need cleaning that protects coatings, tiles and waterproofing. Soft washing targets algae, lichen and mould while reducing the risk of pressure damage.
Longer-lasting organic growth treatment
Soft washing treats the source of staining instead of only blasting the visible layer away. This helps keep exterior surfaces cleaner for longer.
Pressure washing where appropriate
We use pressure washing and soft washing together where it makes sense. The surface determines the method, not a one-size-fits-all process.
Questions
Common questions
Is soft washing safe for roof tiles?
Soft washing is generally safer than high pressure on roof tiles, but each roof is assessed for condition, access and material first.
What does soft washing remove?
It is used for algae, mould, lichen, mildew and organic staining on suitable exterior surfaces.
Is soft washing the same as pressure washing?
No. Soft washing uses low pressure and cleaning chemistry. Pressure washing uses higher water pressure for hard surfaces.
