Soft Washing
Gentle cleaning for delicate surfaces.
Our soft washing service at Nanocore Services gently cleans delicate surfaces like roofs and siding with low-pressure water and eco-friendly solutions, preserving their integrity.
How We Perform Soft Washing
We use a specialized approach for a thorough yet safe clean:
- Solution Prep: A biodegradable cleaning mix (e.g., water, bleach, surfactant) targets mold, algae, and dirt.
- Application: Low-pressure pumps spray the solution evenly across the surface.
- Dwell Time: The mix sits for 10-15 minutes to break down grime.
- Rinse: A gentle rinse removes residue without high pressure.
Why Soft Washing is Needed
Delicate surfaces can't handle high pressure—soft washing removes harmful growths that eat away at materials (e.g., algae on roofs) while preventing damage. It's key for longevity and appearance.
How Often Should It Be Done?
Timing varies by surface and conditions:
- Roofs: Every 2-3 years to prevent moss or shingle decay.
- Siding: Annually in humid climates, every 2 years elsewhere.
- Fences: As needed, typically every 1-2 years.
Laws and Regulations
Similar to pressure washing:
- Environmental Rules: We use EPA-approved cleaners to avoid runoff violations.
- HOA Standards: May require periodic cleaning for uniformity.
Additional Information
Good to know:
- Safe Surfaces: Roofs, vinyl, stucco, and wood.
- Weather: Ideal in mild weather—rain can dilute solutions.
- Cost: Based on surface area; more affordable than repairs.
- Benefits: Kills mold at the root, extends material life, and improves energy efficiency (clean roofs reflect heat better).
