Will soft washing damage my render or paintwork?

No — not when done correctly by a professional using the right technique. Soft washing uses very low water pressure; the cleaning is done by the chemical solution, not force. We've cleaned hundreds of rendered and painted homes across Sydney. Our soft wash technique is specifically designed to protect surface coatings while eliminating organic growth.

How long does a house wash take?

A standard single-storey home takes 2–4 hours. Double-storey and larger homes take 4–6 hours. Adding a driveway or path to the scope adds time. We'll provide a realistic timeframe when we quote.

How often should I have my house exterior washed?

For most Sydney homes, every 1–2 years is sufficient to keep mould and algae from establishing.

We'll advise on the right frequency for your specific property and surface material when we visit.

What is the difference between soft wash and pressure washing?

Soft washing uses low pressure and cleaning solutions to safely remove mould, algae, and grime from delicate surfaces like render, painted weatherboard, and roofing. High-pressure washing uses greater water pressure and is suited to harder surfaces like brick and concrete. We assess your home and use the right method — or a combination — for each surface type.

Most Sydney homes benefit from an exterior wash every 1 to 2 years. Homes in shaded areas, near trees, or in coastal areas with salt air may need cleaning annually to prevent mould and algae build-up.

Will pressure washing damage my render or paintwork?

Not when done by a professional. We adjust pressure settings for each surface. Render and painted surfaces are cleaned using soft wash technique at low pressure — high-pressure water is never used on these materials. We have never had a damage complaint in our years of service.

Soft Wash vs High Pressure — Why the Difference Matters

The most common mistake in exterior home cleaning is applying the wrong pressure to the wrong surface. High pressure on render, painted weatherboard, or fibre cement causes permanent damage — peeling, cracking, and surface erosion.

This is where experience and the right equipment make all the difference.

● Render & painted surfaces: soft wash — low pressure plus a surface-safe solution. The chemistry does the work, not the force. Removes mould and algae without lifting paint or eroding render.

● Brick & masonry: high pressure where appropriate, using Think Brick accredited technique. Safe cleaning that won't void brick manufacturer warranties.

● Colorbond, metal cladding & steel: low-to-medium pressure with appropriate pre-treatment. No streaking, no surface marking.

● Weatherboard, timber & fibro (Hardiplank): specialist low-pressure soft wash. We never apply high pressure to timber or fibre cement — no exceptions.
