VINYL SIDING
In addition to deck and wood restoration, we also provide a complete power washing service. Houses that have been soiled by tree sap, animal feces, mold and road dirt can destroy the beauty of any home. Using soft bristle brushes and a mild detergent, we scrub the entire house including porches, eves and doors. Following the scrubbing process, we power wash the house using low pressure to eliminate all debris. Please do not be fooled by some companies who claim that power washers are dangerous if used on vinyl siding. Power washing vinyl siding is completely SAFE if you are experienced and you know what you are doing. Low pressure is safe for window seals and it wont blow the siding off your house. The use of soft washing systems DO NOT WORK, this is a selling gimmick! High presure may crack vinyl siding and high water volume methods are get rich quick schemes that also do not work, and chemicals destroy the integrity of the siding. There is no such thing as waxing a house, that is a selling gimmick as well.
In order to reach high peaks of houses, you must use a soft bristle brush and ladders. Pressure alone from power washers do not effectively reach high peaks. Vinyl siding needs to be scrubbed with soft bristle brushes, mild detergents and low pressure. There is no other way to properly clean vinyl siding. We guarantee it.
PRESSURE WASHERS VS SOFT WASHING SYSTEMS
All power washers are equiped with a pump that allows for pressure to flow through a nozzle or a tip which creates a restriction. These pumps are equiped with a pressure guage that allows the user to adjust the pressure from high to low pressure. The low pressure setting on the pressure guage will eliminate brute force to your vinyl siding. Less pressure means less water used and no worries about water infiltration. Whether you use a power washer or a soft washing system, its still the same thing. Thats what makes soft washing systems an expensive crafty selling gimmick and a near worthless method.

CLEANING SOLUTIONS FOR VINYL SIDING
Power washer pumps are also equipped with a Detergent Ejection System. This system is specifically designed to allow the cleaning solutions to be passed through the pumps water stream. This process dilutes the cleaning solution to the correct mixture of water. It does the same thing as multipal expensive solution tanks. That's what makes soft washing systems a selling gimmick.
The only way to properly clean vinyl siding is to scrub the vinyl using mild derergents and a good soft bristle brush; usually the same type of brush that are used at the car wash. If these type brushes won't scratch the paint on your car, they won't scratch your vinyl siding either. In todays society too many contractors try to fool the public with selling gimmicks that either do not work or sound to good to be true.
