cleaning service,what’s the first thing that comes to mind? If you are like most, it’s pressure washing or power washing. Without a doubt, the most substan- tial growth in the exterior cleaning trade has been the introduction of soft wash- ing.The soft wash process has been used for more than 25 years and quickly is a preferred method of cleaning throughout the industr y.
Soft washing
Soft washing is a term used to describe a safe, gentle approach to a well- proven roof and exterior cleaning method. It utilizes low pressure to deliver a customized cleaning so- lution. This solution not only kills 100 percent of all mold, mildew and bacteria by displacing the oxygen they require to survive,
as a garden hose. There are no harmful effects like those associated with pressure washing, and it does not void your roof warranty. In fact, it is the recommended roof cleaning method by
The American Roof- ing Manufacturers Association. Effects last four to six times longer than pres- sure washing alone. It even achieves a 100 percent kill rate on molds, mildews, lichens, moss and bacteria.
Power washing
Pressure or power washing uses force to clean a surface and re- move molds, mildews and other contaminants. The first problem is that it does not kill these contaminants, but instead it simply shears
􏰀
them off at the surface, al- lowing them to grow back thicker, stronger and fuller in (usually) less than six months. The second and perhaps most impor tant problem is the potential
>> After
for extensive dam- ages when pressure washing, such as stripping or scarring on delicate surfaces; blasting off protec- tive granules from your shingle roof,
or the color from your tile roof; peeling; etching and chipping the paint off your home or business; or forcing water into trouble- some areas. These dam-
ages could cost you thou- sands of dollars in repairs. Envirowash Hawaii LLC owner Mike Wedge said there are situations in which a pressure wash may be the best method of cleaning, such as cleaning concrete, brick and most flat surfaces (which the company highly suggests you spray with a soft wash mix to kill off the remaining contaminants left below
the surface). Another in- stance is during paint prep — when it is essential to expose any problem areas — as well as anywhere hot water may be required, such as with tire marks, stains, oil or grease.
Envirowash Hawaii LLC, Hawaii’s only Soft Wash Systems-cer tified con- tractor, recommends that you choose a professional cleaning contractor that is both licensed and has a current general liability insurance policy, along with a current workers comp policy to ensure you’re protected while they’re on your property. And remember, if you think a professional contractor is too expensive, consider what an amateur may end up costing you.
