Soft Washing in Central Indiana

The method behind almost everything we do. Low pressure, the right detergent, and time on the surface instead of force.

Soft washing, in one paragraph

Soft washing replaces force with chemistry. A cleaning solution is applied at low pressure, left to work on the growth for as long as the surface needs, then rinsed off with water at a pressure the material can take. Nothing is scoured, and because the organism is killed rather than knocked loose, the result lasts longer than a rinse.

The pressures we work at

A roof is cleaned at under 100 PSI, which is roughly a garden hose. Siding sits under 500. Brick and masonry get low pressure and a longer dwell. Concrete is the only surface in the residential world where high pressure genuinely belongs, and even there we use a rotary surface cleaner rather than a wand so the slab comes out even.

Where soft washing is the only correct answer

Asphalt shingle, painted wood, cedar shake, stucco, vinyl, screens, and anything with a seal or a coating that pressure would break. If a company offers to pressure wash your roof, that is not a price question. That is a different job with a different outcome.

What is included

  • Under 500 PSI on siding, under 100 on a roof
  • Cleaning solution does the work, the water only rinses
  • The correct answer on any surface that pressure would damage

Every estimate is free, most of them do not need a site visit, and nothing about getting one obliges you to book. Call or text (765) 388-9554, or send the form and we will come back with a number.

They were supposed to come out on July 3rd, but had a breakdown. So they came out on the 4th a holiday and did the job. They did my deck, driveway and front porch. Ray did a excellent job. Would recommend them.

Questions about soft washing

Is soft washing just a low setting on a pressure washer?
No. It is a different job. The cleaning solution kills the growth and the water only rinses. A pressure washer on a low setting still relies on force, and force is what damages the surface.
How long does soft washing last?
Longer than a rinse, because the organism is killed rather than knocked loose. Most Indiana homes are back on a one to two year cycle, and shaded elevations come round sooner.
How much does pressure washing cost in Central Indiana?
A typical 2,500 square foot house wash runs $450 to $550, and most land around $500. Our minimum service charge is $250 for most standalone jobs. Smaller homes run $250 – $399 and larger ones $500 – $900+. Concrete is $200 – $450 for 400 to 800 square feet, roof cleaning $600 – $1,500+, decks $200 – $500, fences $250 – $700+ and windows $100 – $300+ as an add on. Those are budget ranges rather than final quotes, because two houses that look alike from the road can be an hour apart in labor.
If I book more than one service, do the prices add together?
No, and that is worth knowing before you compare. The individual prices are not meant to be stacked. Once the $250 minimum is met on a visit, windows, concrete, gutters and other services can often be added for less than we would charge to come out for that one service on its own, because the setup only happens once. The estimate shows each line so you can see the difference.
Do I need to be home for the service?
For most exterior work, no. We need access to the areas being cleaned and to an outside water connection. We will confirm that with you before the day.
