Not all exterior surfaces can handle high pressure — that’s where soft washing comes in. Both methods clean effectively, but they’re used for different purposes.
Let’s break it down.
💦 Pressure Washing (High Pressure)
Uses high-pressure water to blast away dirt, mold, and stains
Ideal for concrete, bricks, driveways, paths, retaining walls
Quick and powerful — removes years of grime fast
Not suitable for fragile surfaces
🌿 Soft Washing (Low Pressure + Detergents)
Uses low-pressure water + eco-friendly cleaning agents
Gently kills and lifts mold, algae, and organic build-up
Perfect for roofs, painted walls, timber, render, and outdoor furniture
No surface damage or paint stripping
🛠️ Why Does It Matter?
Using the wrong method can:
Strip paint
Damage wood
Leave streaks or water marks
