Local service
Professional soft washing with the right method for every surface
Soft washing is designed for exterior surfaces that need more than water alone but should not be subjected to aggressive high pressure. It uses carefully selected cleaning treatments and controlled application to target the organic growth causing the discolouration.
Our service is suitable for many types of render, painted masonry, cladding, stonework and other exterior surfaces. The exact method and treatment strength are chosen around the material, condition, access and level of contamination.
Rather than relying on force, soft washing works by treating the source of green, red, black and organic staining, helping restore a cleaner and more even appearance.

What to consider before soft washing in Filton
For Filton properties, a useful quote starts with understanding the building rather than applying a one-size-fits-all package. Filton combines established residential streets with newer housing and busy urban surroundings, so exterior surfaces can pick up both organic growth and general atmospheric grime.
Our starting point is the reason for the work: typically green algae, red or black organic staining and weathered elevations that need a gentler approach. We then look at access, height, nearby extensions or conservatories, the material being worked on and the severity of the build-up. That lets us recommend a proportionate method focused on treating organic staining on suitable exterior surfaces without relying on unnecessarily high pressure.
The working method is selected after the property has been assessed. Depending on the job, that can involve controlled application of suitable cleaning solutions with low-pressure rinsing or agitation where needed. We avoid promising a result or method purely from a postcode: the surface, condition and safe access all matter when deciding how the work should be completed.
As the weather turns wetter, organic staining often becomes more noticeable through damp autumn and winter conditions, making timely treatment useful. For a quote in Filton, tell us what you have noticed and provide the property details requested on the enquiry form; we will base the recommendation on the job itself.
