Why we soft wash instead of blast
Vinyl siding is made of overlapping panels, and high pressure from the wrong angle forces water up behind them, where it soaks the wall and grows mold you cannot see. High pressure can also crack older vinyl, strip paint, and blow out window seals. That is why we soft wash houses in Southaven: low pressure, about what comes out of a garden hose, combined with a cleaning solution that does the real work.
The solution breaks down mildew, algae, and dirt and kills the growth at the root. Then everything gets a gentle rinse. Because the growth is killed instead of just knocked off the surface, your siding stays clean much longer than it would after a high pressure blast.
The green film every Southaven homeowner knows
Drive through any Southaven neighborhood and you will see it: the north side of the house with a green film, black streaks under the gutters, maybe a gray-green patch on the fence. That is algae and mildew, and our humid Mississippi climate gives it everything it needs: moisture, shade, and warmth for most of the year.
The north side of your home gets the least direct sun, so it stays damp the longest after rain and morning dew. Walls behind tall shrubs or near an overflowing downspout have the same problem. If the worst of the green is right under your roofline, your gutters may be overflowing onto the siding, and we can take care of both in one visit.
What we can clean
Soft washing is safe for vinyl siding, brick, painted wood, and fiber cement. We also clean the black streaks off the outside faces of gutters, plus porches, soffits, and trim. Plants are wetted down before and after, the solution is mixed to the right strength for each surface, and everything is rinsed thoroughly.
