It’s generally recommended to have your roof washed every 1 to 3 years, depending on factors like your location, climate, and the type of roof you have. If you live in an area with high humidity, frequent rain, or heavy foliage, you might need to clean it more often to prevent mold and algae growth. Regular inspections can help determine when it’s time for a wash, keeping your roof in good condition and prolonging its lifespan.
It’s typically recommended to clean your house siding every 1 to 2 years. However, factors such as your local climate, proximity to trees, and the type of siding can affect this frequency. If you notice mold, mildew, or dirt buildup, it’s a good idea to clean it sooner. Regular maintenance not only enhances your home’s curb appeal but also helps protect the siding from damage and prolongs its lifespan.
What are the differences between soft washing and pressure washing?
Soft washing and pressure washing are both effective cleaning methods, but they serve different purposes and use different techniques.
Pressure washing involves using high-pressure water to remove dirt, grime, and stains from surfaces like concrete, brick, and wood. It's great for tough stains and hard surfaces, but the high pressure can damage softer materials if not used carefully.
Soft washing, on the other hand, uses a low-pressure water spray combined with specialized cleaning solutions to gently clean surfaces without the risk of damage. It’s ideal for roofs, vinyl siding, and delicate materials, effectively eliminating mold, mildew, and algae without the harshness of high pressure.
In summary, choose pressure washing for hard surfaces needing intensive cleaning and soft washing for delicate surfaces requiring a gentler approach.
