Why Soft Washing Is the Safest Way to Clean Your Home’s Exterior
Protect your home from mold, mildew, and costly damage with safe, eco-friendly cleaning.

Understanding Jacksonville's Unique Climate
The Impact of Jacksonville's Weather on Your Home
Keeping your home looking clean and well-maintained in Jacksonville’s humid climate isn’t easy. Between the salty air, summer rains, and constant heat, mold and algae can build up fast — especially on stucco, siding, and shingle roofs.
If you’ve noticed dark streaks or green buildup, you might be tempted to rent a pressure washer. But hold off — traditional pressure washing can actually cause more harm than good to your home’s surfaces.
What is Soft Washing ?
Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning method that uses safe, biodegradable solutions to break down mold, mildew, algae, dirt, and grime. It’s applied with a gentle spray and then rinsed away — no harsh blasting or surface damage.
At Coastal Shine Property Services, we specialize in soft washing because it’s the best way to protect your investment while still getting powerful cleaning results.
Highlighting Our Key Benefits
Why Soft Washing Is Better for Your Home
✅ Safe for Delicate Surfaces
Pressure washing can chip paint, dent siding, and dislodge shingles. Soft washing uses water pressure no stronger than a garden hose — perfect for roofs, painted wood, and vinyl.
✅ Kills Mold and Algae at the Root
Pressure washing might remove surface stains, but soft washing eliminates the spores that cause regrowth — helping your home stay cleaner, longer.
✅ Boosts Curb Appeal (and Value)
Whether you’re preparing to sell your home or just want it to look its best, soft washing instantly refreshes the look of your exterior — and helps maintain its value.
Ideal for Jacksonville Homes
Homes in Northeast Florida face unique environmental challenges. High humidity and frequent storms accelerate the growth of algae, lichen, and black mold. Our soft wash solutions are tailored for Florida’s climate — and tough on the grime that threatens your home.
When to Schedule a Soft Wash
You should consider scheduling a soft wash if you notice:
-
Green, black, or brown staining on walls or your roof
-
A slippery driveway or walkway
-
Dull or dirty siding
-
Stains on gutters or fascia
Most homeowners benefit from a soft wash every 12–18 months, depending on the amount of shade, tree cover, and weather exposure.
