Vinyl siding is a magnet for algae, mold, and dirt buildup - especially on the shaded sides of a house. It happens gradually, so most homeowners don't notice how bad it's gotten until they really look. That's exactly what was going on here at this Hatfield, PA home.
The siding had a heavy layer of grime and biological growth embedded along the lap lines. That kind of buildup doesn't come off with a garden hose. It needs the right mix of cleaning solution applied at low pressure - what we call a softwash. The whole point is to kill the organic growth at the source instead of just blasting the surface and hoping for the best.
We also handled the windows on this one. Clean siding with dirty windows is a common mismatch we see, so pairing both services together just makes sense. When everything gets done at once, the finished result is consistent from top to bottom.
The difference between before and after is night and day. The siding went from dingy and stained to clean and uniform - the actual color of the home came back. The homeowner was happy, and that's what we're after every time we pull up to a job.
Softwashing is safe for vinyl, painted surfaces, and landscaping when it's done right. We take the time to protect what needs protecting and make sure the solution is rinsed thoroughly before we leave. No shortcuts.
