Kennebunkport’s coastal homes, historic places near Dock Square and shingled homes out along the water, take on salt and humidity that feed algae and mildew on the siding. We soft wash houses all over town with the care these homes need.
A lot of people think their house needs to be pressure washed. On siding it doesn’t, and it shouldn’t, high pressure can crack panels, strip paint, and drive water in behind the walls. We soft wash instead: low pressure and a cleaning solution that does the actual work, killing the mold, mildew, and algae at the root with a surfactant that helps it dwell and penetrate, then a clean rinse. The result is safe on vinyl, wood, and painted surfaces, and it stays clean longer because we killed the growth instead of just rinsing it off.
Salt air and ocean humidity grow algae fast here, especially on shaded and weathered sides. Soft washing clears it gently and keeps it off longer.
