Professional Soft Washing For Homes, Roofs And Businesses In Poughkeepsie, NY
Soft washing cleans with a cleaning solution and low pressure instead of force. The solution kills the algae, mildew and lichen that turn siding green and roofs black, and a gentle rinse carries it away. Because the growth is killed at the root, the surface stays clean far longer than it does after a pressure wash, and nothing gets forced behind siding, stripped off shingles or gouged into wood.
We are a fully insured, locally owned exterior cleaning company based in Poughkeepsie, and soft washing is how we clean every house and roof, across Dutchess and Ulster Counties. Every project is quoted in writing before we arrive and backed by our satisfaction guarantee.
What We Soft Wash
Soft Washing House Siding
Vinyl, aluminum, fiber cement, stucco, painted wood and brick each get a cleaning solution and pressure matched to the surface, so nothing is forced behind the siding or lifted off old paint. Trim, soffits, gutter faces and the front entry are included with every house wash.
Soft Washing Roofs
Black streaks and moss on asphalt shingles are living growth, not dirt. Our roof soft wash kills it without any pressure on the shingles and lets the weather shed it, and every full-roof wash is covered by our One-Year Roof Wash Warranty.
Decks, Patios And Commercial Buildings
Wood and composite decks, fences and paver patios are cleaned without raising the grain or blowing out joint sand; see deck and fence cleaning. Storefronts, offices, HOA buildings and dumpster areas are soft washed on a written scope, with a certificate of insurance before we start; see commercial exterior cleaning.

Soft Washing Vs. Pressure Washing
Pressure washing is the right tool for concrete and other hard surfaces that can take it. On siding, roofs and wood it does damage: it can drive water behind siding, strip granules from shingles and void some shingle warranties, lift paint on older wood, and it only moves the growth around, so the green comes back fast.
Soft washing treats the growth so it dies, then rinses it away. Before we start, we check windows, doors and outlets and wet down the landscaping, we keep the solution on the surfaces being cleaned, and when we’re done everything gets a thorough rinse. There’s more detail in our guide to soft washing vs. pressure washing.
A soft wash combined with roof cleaning, deck and fence cleaning or exterior window cleaning brings the second service in at a package rate — see our packages and plans — and the full list of towns we serve is on our service areas page.

Soft Washing FAQ
Is soft washing safe for my plants?
Yes, when it’s done right. We wet down plants and lawn before we start, keep the cleaning solution on the surfaces being cleaned, cover anything delicate, and rinse everything thoroughly when we’re done.
Is soft washing the same as pressure washing?
No. Pressure washing relies on force; soft washing relies on a cleaning solution and low pressure. We pressure wash concrete and other hard surfaces, and soft wash siding, roofs and wood.
How long does a soft wash last?
Because the growth is killed at the root, most homes stay clean for one to two years. Shaded walls and roofs under trees may need it every year.
Can you soft wash my roof?
Yes. Asphalt shingle roofs with black streaks or moss are soft washed with no pressure on the shingles, and every full-roof wash comes with our One-Year Roof Wash Warranty.
How is soft washing priced?
Every home is quoted in writing based on its size, height, surfaces and how much growth there is. Send your address and a photo, and you’ll usually have a firm number the same day. Quotes are free, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
