Our Softwashing Process

Some recent softwash treatment on pebble dash wall's. On this bungalow we had to take 3 steps to get this property looking in brilliant condition removing most stains the customer wanted instant results. 

STEP 1....

We used a government approved chemical cleaning product to remove most off the dirt. 

STEP 2....

We then rinsed all of the wall's down with low pressure water making sure there's no chemical left on the property.

STEP 3.... 

We then applied a government approved chemical to treat any growth that is left on these wall's, this will break down any bio-film that's left, over the remaining 9 months. Customer delighted with the results.

Soft Washing and Steam Cleaning

Customer contacted us regarding her roof, she wanted this cleaned up before they got new pvc on the outside of the house. We advised the customer a low pressure steam clean at 100 degrees heat and only 40 bar pressure we could most certainly get instant results for her. We cleaned this, then softwashed the roof to prolong the bio-film as after advising the customer that the bacteria would only grow back straight away, they decided to go for the treatment too. Not only instant results but a long time before the regrowth reappears thanks to the government approved chemicals that we use.

K Rend Softwashing

Some k-rend softwashing phase 1 & 2 on phase 1 we applied a pre treatment, fully biodegradable, bleach & acid free product on the render back in march and left it to dwell for 12 weeks to slowly kill all bacteria and any spores that was left........phase 2 post treatment we returned 12 week's later all bacteria had all been successfully removed and we we're left with black stains and carbon deposits, so we treated what was left with a fully licensed cleaning chemical, bringing the k-rend back to it's original colour......  2 different chemicals we're used to treat 2 different problems as this can not be done as 2 chemicals used at the same time can cause corrosion, hence the reason this was done phase 1 & 2

The Advantages of Soft Washing

The low pressure cleaning used during the soft washing process reduces the changes for damage and water penetration into the structure being cleaned. By killing the cause of the problem at the molecular level you can also expect the property to stay cleaner for longer.

Where can Soft Washing be Used

Soft washing is a very effective method of cleaning surfaces such as roof tiles, walls, cladding, render and other more sensitive surfaces. It is also great for pre treating a patio which has black spots or deep green staining , pressure washing alone often will not remove these extra stubborn marks. 

Why Choose Soft Washing

When cleaning some external surfaces such as roof tiles there is the danger of damaging the tiles by using high pressured cleaning. 

Soft washing only cleans the moss and dirt off the surface of the tile by using a calculated mixture of chemicals which are sprayed by low pressure onto the affected area. This can then be washed off after the chemicals have killed the moss, dirt and algae. Water alone during pressure washing would not be able to kill of moss and algae and even if a roof tile looks clean after pressure washing the surface, moss and algae have living spores which can remain behind . Organic growth is likely to reoccur and grow back in just a matter of weeks
