    Brands the Gorilla Property Services network has worked with across Canada and the U.S.

    It is easy to spend an afternoon doing laundry or scrubbing surfaces but to wash your home is a much more difficult practice. The exterior of your home or business is always collecting new stains and discolouration. The outer layers of your property are usually rough, uneven and difficult to clean properly. Instead of giving up hope for a bright and inviting property, call a Gorilla for your Ottawa soft washing service. Our services will improve curb appeal while eliminating the negative effects of algae, moss and mildew.

    How Soft Washing Works

    There is hardly a person out there that hasn’t heard of pressure washing. This service uses high pressure water spray and cleaners to shoots stains, discolouration and growth off hard materials around properties. This process works well for some construction materials but can cause a lot of damage to others. For those spaces that require a more tender hand, an Ottawa soft washing is the answer. Soft washing uses low pressure sprays and a mix of cleansing agents to strip organic stains, mildew, algae and bacteria. This means great results for your exterior cleaning.

    Plenty of property owners have tried to deal with staining with power washing, but this can mean damage. Certain types of siding or materials like vinyl, stucco or wood siding can become damaged. Don’t take a risk with unstable cleaning methods when you can have a Gorilla swing into action with professional cleaning services.

    Ottawa Soft Washing: The Gorilla Method

    Tackling the delicate or sensitive areas around your property requires a firm hand but a light touch. In addition to experience with tools, our Gorillas understand the chemical makeups required to treat whatever stain you are dealing with. Instead of only offering chemical treatment options, our Gorillas can organize environmentally responsible options as well. Pointing and shooting at stains can lead to run-off that can contaminate the surrounding areas. By choosing eco-friendly options, you can rest assured that no harmful chemicals will make their way into water outlets near you.

    Common questions

    Softwashing — answered

    How is chemistry applied to surfaces?

    The pressure is the key difference from pressure washing. Our spray equipment stays under 500 PSI, roughly garden-hose force, so it is the chemistry doing the cleaning, not blunt force. Foam or gel formulas hold to vertical walls so the product does not run off before working.

    When is the best time of year for soft washing?

    Spring through early fall is the practical window for soft washing. Mild, above-freezing temperatures let the cleaning chemistry activate and work properly on algae and mould. Late spring, once pollen has settled, and early fall are the peak periods for booking the service.

    Can soft washing be done in windy conditions?

    It comes down to how strong the wind is. A light breeze is fine, and crews adapt their technique so the chemistry still reaches the surface evenly. But heavy wind scatters the application and weakens the result, so we reschedule to protect effectiveness.

    Can soft washing be done on a condo?

    Yes. We soft wash both individual condo units and full strata properties, coordinating with strata management on access and scheduling. The low-pressure method safely cleans shared siding, balconies, and roof surfaces, removing algae and mildew without the risk pressure washing poses to multi-unit buildings.

    Can soft washing clean exterior columns?

    Yes. Exterior columns in brick, stucco, or painted wood clean well with soft washing, and it is standard work. The low-pressure method lifts algae, mildew, and grime from the column surface and detailing without stripping paint or damaging decorative trim.

    Can soft washing be done in the rain?

    Two factors decide it: safety and chemistry. A light, steady drizzle rarely stops the work, since the solution still bonds and the rinse proceeds. But heavy rain makes ladders and wet surfaces hazardous and washes product away, so we postpone rather than compromise results.

    Do you offer soft wash + gutter cleaning bundles?

    These two go together logically because both involve the roofline. A roof soft wash sends algae and debris toward the gutters, so clearing the gutters in the same visit makes sense: the crew is already up there, and the work finishes with drainage running clean.

    Do you offer specialty soft washing?

    Specialty work is about matching method to a delicate surface. Heritage masonry, decorative finishes, and valuable substrates each react differently, so we adjust the chemistry strength and dwell time rather than applying a one-size approach. That tailoring is why these jobs are quoted separately.

    Can soft washing clean exterior light fixtures?

    Yes. Exterior light fixtures clean well with soft washing, both glass and metal types. Our crews apply low-pressure, properly diluted chemistry that lifts grime, cobwebs, and oxidation without forcing water into seals or wiring. Gentle attention means fixtures come out clear without damage to finishes.
