When it comes to cleaning the exterior of your Connecticut home, two primary methods often come to mind: soft washing and pressure washing. But which one is the best option for your home? At Klemov Exterior Cleaning, we're here to help you make an informed decision. Here's a breakdown of the differences between soft washing and pressure washing and why soft washing may be the best choice for your home.
What Is Pressure Washing?
Pressure washing involves using a high-powered stream of water to blast away dirt, mold, and grime from surfaces. The pressure used can be as high as 3,000 PSI, making it an effective method for cleaning sturdy surfaces such as:
Concrete driveways
Brick pathways
Sturdy fences
However, the high pressure can cause damage to more delicate surfaces like wood, vinyl siding, and roof shingles.
What Is Soft Washing?
Soft washing is a cleaning method that uses a combination of low-pressure water and specially formulated cleaning solutions to safely remove mold, mildew, algae, and other contaminants. This gentle yet effective method is perfect for cleaning:
Roof shingles
Vinyl siding
Wood decks and fences
Stucco
Outdoor furniture
At Klemov Exterior Cleaning, our experienced team uses environmentally friendly detergents that are safe for your family and pets while delivering a thorough clean.
Key Differences Between Soft Wash and Pressure Wash
Pressure Wash:
High Pressure (up to 3,000 PSI): Great for tough stains and surfaces
Best For: Concrete, brick, and metal
Potential Damage: Can harm delicate surfaces like wood or roof shingles
Soft Wash:
Low Pressure (less than 500 PSI): Gentle on surfaces
Best For: Roofs, siding, decks, fences, and more
Eco-Friendly Solutions: Specialized detergents break down contaminants
Why Soft Washing Is the Best Choice for Connecticut Homes
