House Soft Washing in Cedar Park, Austin & Nearby

Get Clean Siding Without Harsh Pressure

Soft washing effectively restores home exteriors without the risk of property damage.

Regularly cleaning your siding does more than improve curb appeal. It helps prevent moisture-related damage, slows the growth of mold and algae caused by Texas heat and humidity, and extends the life of your exterior finishes. But did you know that many siding manufacturers warn against high-pressure cleaning? Too much pressure can damage siding, strip paint, force water behind panels, and even lead to mold growth, sometimes voiding your warranty in the process. That’s why Bright Brothers of North Austin offers professional soft washing.

Our low-pressure, manufacturer-recommended cleaning method safely removes dirt, mold, mildew, algae, and stains. Plus, we always take precautions to protect your landscaping and pets!

Our proven soft wash process doesn’t just clean—it sanitizes and helps protect your home’s exterior, delivering results that last 4–6 times longer than traditional pressure washing.

Ready to clean and protect your home's exterior siding? We offer free, no-obligation estimates for house soft washing in Cedar Park, Austin, Round Rock, and surrounding areas.

What is Softwashing?

All home exteriors get dingy over time. Although there isn’t a magic wand to instantly banish years of mildew, soot, dirt, and grime from your home’s exterior, softwashing is the next best thing. There’s no doubt that a pressure washer will do the job. But pressure washing, also called power washing, takes careful skill and long hours of standing and reaching high and low to ensure satisfying, damage-free results. 

Soft washing is a lower-pressure wash for deep cleaning outdoor surfaces, including home siding and brick, roofs, gutters, fences, decks, concrete, and more. A soft washer uses pressure similar to a garden hose but can dislodge dirt, mold, algae, and other stains without damaging the surface. Softwashing is typically done every couple of years for general maintenance or when preparing a surface for paint.

Soft Wash vs. Pressure Washing

Tough stains and grime require special equipment or expert help, like soft or pressure washing. The primary difference between the two cleaning methods is soft washing is safe for fragile surfaces. In contrast, pressure washing is only appropriate for cleaning surfaces made of highly durable materials, including concrete. Another notable difference is soft washing treats stains and maintains clean surfaces longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Below are answers to the questions we get asked the most about washing siding, trim, and home exteriors.

Can pressure washing damage siding?

Yes, power washing can damage siding if it's not done correctly. High-pressure cleaning can crack or loosen siding, strip paint, force water behind panels, and damage seals or insulation. This trapped moisture can lead to mold growth, rot, and even void manufacturer warranties, especially for vinyl, fiber cement, wood, and engineered siding.

That's why many siding manufacturers recommend soft washing instead. Soft washing uses low pressure combined with specialized cleaning solutions to safely remove dirt, mold, mildew, and algae without harming your siding or your home's exterior.

At Bright Brothers of North Austin, we use the right cleaning method for each exterior surface, delivering a cleaner, longer-lasting result while protecting your siding, landscaping, and investment.

How long does soft washing last?

Many homes can go at least a year or two before they need to be washed again, but this varies depending on the type of siding, roof, or surfaces being washed, the amount of rainfall, and the surrounding trees. Regardless, soft washing lasts significantly longer than pressure washing since it removes mold, mildew, and algae at the root, helping prevent it from growing back.

Can I soft wash my house myself?

If your home's exterior surfaces need a good cleaning, you might have considered doing it yourself. However, there are many reasons to hire a softwashing contractor. The first primary reason is spraying too aggressively could harm your home's siding or paint. Second, DIY pressure washing requires hours of standing, reaching high and low. Finally, you must stand on a ladder or scaffolding if your home is taller than one story. Hiring a professional might cost more, but it's safer, more efficient, and can give better longer-lasting results.
