Soft Washing, Done Right

We provide professional soft washing for homes across Whistler and the Sea to Sky. Living in this region means your home’s exterior is exposed to constant moisture, which can lead to dirt, algae, and mold buildup over time. As locals, we understand how important it is to maintain your property while protecting its surfaces. Using a low-pressure, effective approach, our team safely cleans siding and exterior areas with a focus on care, precision, and long-term results.

Whether it’s part of regular maintenance or a one-time clean, we ensure your home’s exterior is refreshed and properly cared for, with service completed safely and to a high standard every time.

What to Expect from Our Soft Washing Service

Soft washing uses low-pressure water combined with specialised cleaning solutions to safely remove algae, mould, mildew, and dirt from delicate surfaces. Unlike pressure washing, soft washing won't damage vinyl siding, stucco, cedar shakes, painted surfaces, or roofing materials.

Our process begins with a thorough assessment of your home's exterior. We apply a biodegradable cleaning solution that breaks down organic growth at the root, then gently rinse with low-pressure water. The result is a deep clean that lasts significantly longer than pressure washing alone — typically 2-3 times longer before regrowth appears.

Soft washing is the preferred method for most residential exteriors in the Sea to Sky corridor, where moss and algae thrive in the damp, shaded mountain environment.

Why Soft Washing is Essential in Whistler's Climate

Whistler, Squamish, and Pemberton receive significant rainfall and are surrounded by dense forest canopy. This creates a perfect environment for organic growth on building exteriors. Green algae, black mould streaks, and moss can appear within months of a new paint job. Regular soft washing — once or twice a year — protects your investment and keeps your home looking its best without the risk of high-pressure damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between soft washing and pressure washing?

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to blast dirt from hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure combined with cleaning solutions to safely clean delicate surfaces like siding, stucco, and roofing. We use both techniques depending on what your property needs.

Is soft washing safe for cedar siding?

Yes. Soft washing is the recommended cleaning method for cedar, as high-pressure water can damage wood fibres and force water behind the siding. Our solution kills moss and algae at the root without harming the wood.

How long does a soft wash last?

A professional soft wash typically lasts 2-3 times longer than a pressure wash because the cleaning solution kills organic growth at the root rather than just removing it from the surface. Most homes in the Sea to Sky stay clean for 12-18 months.
