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

    Not every property owner knows the finer points of soft washing, but this process can benefit structures from houses, garages and multi-unit properties to commercial spaces. House washing and exterior care leave properties free of dirt, dust and buildup. Let a Gorilla help to improve the curb appeal of your living space and make the right impressions with our Salmon Arm soft washing.

    The Benefits of Soft Washing

    Soft washing is the much gentler cousin of a power wash. High pressure sprays blast away mold, mildew and bacteria from harder surfaces but this harsh treatment doesn’t work on all surfaces. Trying to power wash or scrub away at weakened or delicate materials can cause large amounts of unexpected damage. Where harsh treatments post threats to materials, soft washers get results safely and efficiently. Instead of learning to live with stains or discolourations on vinyl, stucco or wood siding, let a Gorilla lend a helping paw. In the right hands, these power tools can help to extend the lifespan of construction materials for years, all while looking great.

    In addition to looking its best, a clean property is a healthier environment for its tenants. The outer areas of your home or workplace come into contact with tons of bacteria, along with other nasty materials. Algae, mold and bird droppings all carry harmful bacteria that cannot simply be hosed away. Environmentally friendly cleansing and disinfecting agents are used to create a risk-free area. Over time, these unwanted materials can even damage the integrity of constriction materials. Held moisture softens and weakens materials over time and this is what makes a routine so important.

    The Gorilla Guarantee

    A good reputation does not happen overnight, but with years of hard work and experience. A strong commitment and dedication to results are what set our services apart from the competition. Gorilla specialists perform soft washing with applications of eco-friendly cleaners and low pressure sprays. These sprays are able to dig deep into cracks and crevices, loosening any buildup from these areas. Through tried and true methods, our local experts can offer a satisfaction guarantee to our customers that they will love their results – and we have the before and after photos to prove it!

    Common questions

    Softwashing — answered

    Can soft washing be done on a large estate?

    Yes. We handle estates and large properties with the appropriate crew size and equipment, and bigger jobs are sometimes multi-day work. Soft washing scales up cleanly: more crew, more product, more access planning, but the same low-pressure chemistry that protects every surface treated.

    Do you offer roof-only soft washing?

    Yes. We offer roof-only soft washing, a common request from homeowners who want just the roof addressed. Low-pressure chemistry kills the moss and algae at the root and lets it rinse clear over time, without walking heavy equipment across the shingles.

    Can soft washing clean exterior storage units?

    For Salmon Arm customers, storage units and shed exteriors clean with soft washing as standard work. Low-pressure chemistry lifts the algae and green staining common on shaded shed walls, restoring the surface without high pressure that could split older panels.

    Will my outdoor furniture be damaged?

    For Salmon Arm outdoor furniture, the standard residential dilution doesn’t cause damage, so light overspray is not a worry. Crews keep concentrated spray off furniture, and pieces sitting near a work area are moved aside or rinsed. Relocating cushions beforehand is the simplest precaution.

    How does soft washing compare to power washing?

    Power washing is simply another name for pressure washing: high-PSI mechanical cleaning that blasts surfaces with force. Soft washing is the opposite approach, using low pressure and biodegradable chemistry to kill growth at the root. They are different methods suited to different surfaces, not competitors.

    Can you soft wash my fence?

    Fence soft washing is routine residential work in Salmon Arm, covering wood, vinyl, and metal. Our crews clear the green algae film that settles on shaded runs using low-pressure chemistry, so the fence cleans up without the splintering high pressure tends to cause.

    Why is soft washing more effective on biological growth?

    Because pressure removes only the visible surface, while chemistry kills the actual organisms. When you blast algae or moss with water alone, spores survive and quickly recolonize. Soft-wash chemistry sterilizes the surface, killing the growth at the root and giving much more lasting results.

    How concentrated is the chemistry?

    It is diluted roughly 1:3 to 1:10 with water, depending on how heavy the contamination is. Light staining needs a weaker mix, stubborn growth a stronger one, but surface application always uses a gentle, controlled concentration rather than full-strength chemical straight from the container.

    Will the algae and mildew come back?

    Eventually, but slowly. The chemistry kills all existing growth, yet new spores from the surrounding environment will re-colonize the surface over time. Properly applied soft washing typically holds for four to six years before noticeable regrowth, compared with months when pressure washing alone is used.
