From the mill-city neighborhoods to the cottages out at Biddeford Pool, siding here takes on algae and mildew from the river and ocean damp. We soft wash homes all over Biddeford and know what each part of the city deals with.
Here’s why we don’t just blast it. A pressure washer throws 3,000 PSI or more at the wall, and on siding that force cracks material, strips paint, and pushes water up behind the panels. Soft washing flips that: we lay down a cleaning solution at low pressure, gentler than your garden hose, and let it do the work. The solution kills the algae, mold, and mildew at the root while a surfactant helps it cling and soak in, and then we rinse it away. Because the growth is dead and not just knocked loose, it stays clean far longer.
Pool and waterfront homes get salt and humidity; inland gets shade and river moisture. Either way, soft washing clears the growth and keeps it off longer.
FAQ
Will soft washing damage my siding? No. It’s low pressure, safe for vinyl, wood, and paint. We test painted surfaces first.
How often should I wash out at the Pool? With the salt and humidity, every year or two keeps waterfront homes looking clean.
