Ever wonder about the environmental impact of your home exterior cleaning routine? While you want your home to have nice curb appeal, you don’t want to damage the environment in the process. Especially when it comes to cleaning methods and supplies, finding eco-friendly solutions can be difficult. That’s why we only use biodegradable, non-hazardous chemicals for our eco-friendly exterior cleaning services.
- Plant and landscaping conscious – The landscaping and natural elements on your property are a valuable part of your home. While our exterior cleaning chemicals are biodegradable, they are still tough on organic materials such as algae and mold. To protect your landscaping, we operate with a two-person system to dilute and neutralize the chemicals before they reach your yard.
- Eco-conscious runoff – Not all soft washing chemicals are created equal. We partner with SoftWash Systems products because of their commitment to eco-friendly exterior cleaning. Their products are biodegradable, meaning they break down into carbon and water within 20 days of their introduction into the environment. They are also water-based, low VOC, and non-hazardous, making them safe for pets and kids as well.
- The cost of pressure washing – Pressure washing might seem like an eco-friendly option, but the costs outweigh the benefits. Pressure washing requires a great deal of water to get the job done. In contrast, soft washing uses a third of the water pressure washing does. In addition, pressure washing’s powerful blast not only damages surfaces and landscaping, but it can also lodge water under siding and roof shingles, creating the potential for mold growth, wood rot, and other outcomes that end up doing more harm than good.
