Why is house washing different in East County San Diego?

East County homes get a yearly coating of granite dust and wildfire smoke residue. Soft wash clears it without driving water into the stucco cracks. We rinse generously so nothing dries into a chalky haze on the siding.

Suburban tract driveways and pool decks; high summer cleaning demand. East County homes get a yearly coating of granite dust and wildfire smoke residue.

What is soft washing?

Low-pressure application (typically 60–80 PSI at the wall) of a cleaning solution — sodium hypochlorite plus a surfactant that keeps it on the surface long enough to work. The chemistry kills algae, mildew, and gloeocapsa. Then we rinse with clean low-pressure water. No tip of a pressure wand ever touches your siding.

Will it hurt my plants?

Not if we do it right. We pre-wet every plant bed within overspray range, dilute the mix correctly, and post-rinse the foliage. Soft-wash pros do house washes every day around rose bushes, lemon trees, and Japanese maples. The damage stories come from DIY mixes that skip the pre-wet and use uncut SH.
