Pressure Washing vs. Soft Washing: What's the Difference?

Pressure washing and soft washing are often confused, but they serve very different purposes. Pressure washing uses high-pressure water (1,500–4,000+ PSI) to blast away dirt, grime, and loose paint from durable surfaces like concrete, brick, and stone.

Soft washing, on the other hand, uses low pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions to remove organic growth from delicate surfaces such as siding, roofs, and painted wood.

Using the wrong method can lead to damage. High pressure on shingles or vinyl siding can cause cracks or water intrusion.

Understanding the difference ensures your property gets cleaned safely and effectively.
