Soft washing for Santa Barbara homes. We eliminate the mold and algae at the spore, so your home stays clean longer instead of looking dirty again in a few months.

Yes. Soft washing uses low pressure and biodegradable solutions applied carefully. We pre-rinse and protect plants, and the process is gentler on painted surfaces than any pressure washer.

The opposite. High pressure washing is what voids warranties. Soft washing is the low pressure method that ARMA and the major roofing manufacturers recommend, so it protects your warranty instead of risking it.

Yes. Clay and concrete tiles are brittle and crack under both high pressure and careless foot traffic, which is exactly why soft washing is the right method. Low pressure and a careful approach clean the tile without the damage.

Because soft washing eliminates the algae at the spore instead of just rinsing the surface, a soft washed roof stays clean 4 to 6 times longer than a pressure washed one.

Because soft washing kills mold and algae at the root instead of just blasting the surface, results typically last 2-3 times longer than pressure washing.

I clean it, but not with high pressure. Flagstone and natural stone are soft and porous, and high pressure erodes the surface and loosens the mortar between stones. I use low pressure and the right solution so it comes clean without the damage.

Concrete is durable enough for a surface cleaner and the pressure needed to lift oil, grease, and tire marks out of the pores. That's exactly the kind of surface where a deep clean works well.

On surfaces where soft washing is the right method, treating the algae at the source keeps it away far longer than a plain rinse, which just wets it and moves it around.

Twice a year is right for most Santa Barbara homes, once in spring and once in fall before the rains. Homes under heavy tree cover may need it more often.

Those black streaks are oxidation bonded to the aluminum, not dirt or algae, so a normal wash won't remove them. They need a specific gutter brightening treatment, which I can do as an add-on.

Yes. I clear debris by hand and rinse at low pressure. High pressure can dent gutters and loosen brackets, so it's the wrong tool for the job.

Yes, interior glass is available on request. Most homeowners start with exterior only and add interior when they want the full treatment.

With a telescoping water fed pole, so I clean upper and over roofline windows from the ground. No ladder against your siding and no one walking on your roof.

Twice a year, spring and fall, keeps most Santa Barbara homes looking their best. Homes closer to the coast with heavier salt film may want a third visit.

Yes, and it's the efficient way to do it since I'm already on site. Many customers book both in the same visit.

It depends on how soiled they are. Studies show cleaning dirty panels can improve output by as much as 25 percent, and coastal salt film and heavy dust can cut noticeably into production. Lightly soiled panels that get regular rain may gain less. I'll give you an honest read before you spend anything.

The opposite. High pressure and abrasive scrubbing are what risk voiding warranties. Pure water cleaning is the gentle method manufacturers recommend.

No. I clean from a ladder or the ground with a water fed pole, so there's no foot traffic on your roof and no risk to your tiles or the panels.

Moss collects on the rubberized seals at the bottom of panels and can grow up under the seal, which leads to water damage over time. Clearing it off is part of every cleaning I do.

Yes, and it's the efficient way to do it since I'm already on site with the same pure water system.
