Soft Washing in Brevard County, FL
Soft washing is low-pressure cleaning plus the right detergent — it's the technique we use on roofs, siding, stucco, screen enclosures, painted wood, and any surface where blasting at 3,000 PSI would do more harm than good.
What Soft Washing Is — and When It's the Right Choice
Soft washing is one of the most misunderstood services in pressure washing. Most homeowners think "more pressure = cleaner." In reality, on the surfaces that make up most of your Brevard County home — painted siding, stucco, shingle roofs, screen enclosures, wood fences — high pressure causes damage, and the detergent does the actual cleaning.
A proper soft wash uses about the same pressure as a garden hose, but the right blend of biodegradable detergents and sodium hypochlorite to dissolve the organic film, kill the algae and mildew at the root, and then rinse away clean. The result lasts far longer than any pressure-wash-only job.
Not sure if your project needs soft washing or pressure washing? Just call us — we'll walk you through it honestly.
When Soft Washing Is the Right Tool
Pressure for concrete. Soft wash for everything else. Here's where soft washing is the correct choice on a typical Brevard County property:
Roofs
Shingle, tile, and metal roofs must be soft washed. High pressure damages shingles and voids warranties.
Siding & Stucco
Vinyl, stucco, painted wood, fiber cement — all clean far better with low pressure plus detergent than with high-pressure blasting.
Screen Enclosures
Pool cages and lanai screens are extremely common in Brevard. High pressure shreds them — soft washing is the only safe method.

Soft Washing FAQ — Brevard County
Answers to the questions we hear most often about soft washing in Brevard County.
What surfaces should be soft washed instead of pressure washed?
Roofs (always), painted siding, stucco, brick, painted wood, screen enclosures, pool cages, and most fences. As a rule, anything that's painted, sealed, screened, or designed to keep water out should be soft washed.
Is soft washing safe for my plants?
Yes, when done properly. We pre-wet landscaping, dilute the detergent correctly, and rinse thoroughly. Damage to plants happens when amateurs spray full-strength solution directly onto dry foliage — that's not how we work.
Does soft washing actually clean as well as high pressure?
Often better — and the results last much longer. The detergent kills the algae and mildew at the root rather than just rinsing the visible green off the surface.
How much is soft washing in Brevard County?
Pricing depends entirely on what surfaces are involved — a single-story house wash, a screen enclosure, a roof. Most single-service jobs land in the low-to-mid hundreds. We always quote in writing before starting.
Will soft washing remove green algae from my pool cage?
Yes — pool cages and lanai screens are one of the most common soft wash jobs in Brevard. The screen mesh, the aluminum frame, and the attached deck all clean up dramatically with a proper soft wash.
