If there are red streaks on the walls of your property it most probably is contaminated with algae and mould.
In this short video you can see how we can quickly we transform the walls by softwashing.
Softwashing is a low-pressure cleaning method used to clean and sanitize exterior surfaces.
The term “softwashing” refers to the use of a gentle, non-abrasive cleaning solution and a low-pressure spray to remove dirt, grime, and other contaminants from surfaces.
The biocide solution is applied to the surface being cleaned using a low-pressure spray, which is typically between 60 and 100 psi. The solution is allowed to sit for a period of time to allow it to penetrate and dissolve the contaminants on the surface.
After the biocide solution has had time to work, it is rinsed away using a low-pressure hot water spray. Softwashing is an effective method for cleaning and sanitizing surfaces without causing damage, as the low-pressure spray is gentle enough to avoid damaging delicate surfaces.
One of the main advantages of a soft wash or as it’s known softwashing is that it is applied at low pressure, which ensures that even delicate surfaces aren’t damaged. This makes it the perfect cleaning method for those who want to maintain the look of their property without causing any harm to surface.
It’s different to Pressure Washing or Jetwashing in that it utilises low pressure to apply chemicals and rinse with hot water.
Softwashing kills the living spores of algae, mould, bacteria and organic biofilm that cold water pressure washing cannot remove.
Painting over the living biofilm of algae and mould will result in it striking through the paint after a short period of time.
Watch as we clean the stucco render, instantly transforming this property.
We have other examples on our YouTube channel that shows different types of render such as K-Rend, pebbledash. Tyrolean and monocouche renders being softwashed and steam cleaned.
We hope you enjoy.
Softwashing is a cleaning method used to remove dirt, grime, algae, and other organic growth from exterior surfaces of buildings.
Unlike traditional power washing or pressure washing, softwashing uses a low-pressure water and specialised cleaning solutions to gently clean the surface without causing damage.
Softwashing typically involves applying a cleaning solution to the surface being cleaned, allowing it to dwell for a short period of time, and then rinsing it off with a low-pressure water.
The biodegradable cleaning solution is specifically designed to break down and remove organic growth, such as algae, moss, and lichen, without harming the surface being cleaned.
