Fort Lauderdale Pressure Washing soft-washes house exteriors — applying a cleaning solution at low pressure rather than blasting siding directly — which lifts algae and mildew without stripping paint or driving water behind seams. The company holds a 5.0-star rating from 13 Google reviews and covers 20 service areas from its Wilton Manors base.
A house exterior collects black mold, mildew, and airborne dirt faster than the paint underneath fades, which is why washing it is a maintenance item, not a one-time fix. Fort Lauderdale Pressure Washing soft-washes rather than power-washes: a cleaning solution does the work of breaking down organic growth, and a low-pressure rinse removes it, so stucco, painted block, and vinyl siding come clean without the etching or water intrusion a straight high-pressure nozzle can cause.
The company is based at 9 NE 19th Ct in Wilton Manors and runs the same soft-wash process across 20 service areas, working Monday through Saturday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. It carries a 5.0-star rating from 13 Google reviews — a small sample, but a clean one so far.
Why soft wash instead of pressure wash a house?
Direct high pressure against stucco or painted siding can force water past caulking and paint seams, and on softer materials it can etch or strip the finish outright. Soft washing swaps pressure for chemistry: a cleaning solution is applied at low pressure, given time to break down algae and mildew at the root, then rinsed clean. The result holds longer because the growth is killed, not just knocked loose.
How often does a house actually need this?
Visible black streaking or a green tinge on shaded walls and under roof overhangs is the usual signal — those are the spots that stay damp longest. Most homes go on an annual or every-other-year cycle; a house near heavy tree cover or hit regularly by a sprinkler will need it sooner.
- Black or green streaking under roof overhangs
- A chalky, dull look to walls that used to be bright
Will pressure washing damage my paint or stucco?
Not with the soft-wash method — it uses a cleaning solution at low pressure instead of forcing water directly at the surface, which is what actually causes etching or stripped paint. High pressure aimed straight at siding is the risk, not washing itself.
Do you wash the whole exterior or just the visible stains?
The full exterior gets treated, not just the stained sections, because algae spores that aren't visible yet are still on the surface. Spot-treating just means the streaks come back in the same place within a season.
