Why Soft Wash

The safe way to clean your home

High pressure can strip paint and force water behind your cladding. Soft washing uses low pressure and a biodegradable treatment to lift mould and algae safely — and keep it away for longer.

The Right Way to Clean

Why soft washing beats high-pressure waterblasting on your home

Soft washing uses low-pressure water and a biodegradable cleaning solution to gently lift mould, algae, lichen and grime — without blasting the paint off your weatherboards or forcing water in behind your cladding. It's the safest, most effective approach to house washing on painted and delicate surfaces.

Auckland's damp, humid climate means mould and algae take hold fast — especially in shaded, south-facing and West Auckland suburbs like Titirangi, Henderson and Glen Eden. Regular exterior cleaning protects your paintwork, your roof and your home's value.

That's why we match the method to the surface. We reserve high-pressure waterblasting for the areas that call for it — concrete driveways, paths and patios — and soft-wash everything else, including house washing and roof cleaning. Safe for your property, safe for your plants, safe for your pets.
