What is our Softwash Process?
Superior Exteriors exclusively uses soft washing, a modern alternative to pressure washing. This high volume, low pressure approach keeps your home safe and delivers the highest level of clean without damage.
This allows us to:
- Remove mold, mildew, dirt, algae, and other buildup
Boost curb appeal - Prevent allergens and asthma triggers from spreading into your home
- Improve the long-term quality of your investment
What's the difference between Pressure Wash vs Softwash?
If you’ve heard of pressure washing being used as an exterior cleaning technique, think twice! This high-pressure method can harm your siding, destroy your landscaping, and create water buildup behind your exterior that causes mold and water damage.
Pressure washing uses highly pressurized water to forcefully remove any dirt or grime from the surface that it comes into contact with.
Soft Washing forgoes much of that pressurization in favor of chemicals. These chemicals are safe for both your home and the environment.
Is Softwash safe for my roof?
Soft Washing is the only way to effectively remove roof algae such as Gloeocapsa Magna without damaging the shingles and voiding any warranty.
The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends low-pressure bleach or detergent-assisted washing as the preferred method for cleaning asphalt roofs in order to prevent damage to the shingles.

What do you use to Softwash a house?
Soft Washing is the process of applying cleaning detergents at low pressure and rinsing the solution and any contaminants off the surface with a low-pressure stream of clean water. Typically, a cleaning solution for residential house washing will include sodium hypochlorite (bleach) and a surfactant or foaming agent.
How many gallons does Softwash use?
Soft Washing only uses 60 gallons of cleaning solution, which is comprised of about 40 gallons of water. The cleaning solution is so effective that it lasts 4 to 6 times longer than pressure washing, making it more sustainable for the environment and your wallet.
Will Softwash help my roof last longer?
Yes, it can. Those black streaks aren’t melting or decaying shingles. It’s algae and bacteria that’s eating the limestone filter in your roof shingles and weakening them. The natural high humidity found here in Mississippi is like prime living conditions for these pesky organisms, which can transfer through the air. Sun exposure and heat damage can crack your shingles. Weakened by these factors, your roof will have a higher chance of leaks and costly repairs in the future.
So, softwashing your roof not only gets rid of the ugly black streaks but kills the bacteria and algae, which will help extend the life of your shingles and save you money in the long run. Softwashing basically protects the investment you put into your home and roof.
