WHAT IS SOFT WASHING?
When you think about pressure washing, you likely have an image of dirt being blasted away with something like a gazillion psi of water. In reality though, high pressure cleaning is not always the best option because blasting away at your home with high pressure can cause irreversible damage. Soft Washing (also called Low-Pressure Cleaning) is often a better way.
What is Soft Washing? Professional detergents are applied using a pressure washer with special attachments that lower the pressure to a safe level and mix in detergent at a specific proportion, strong enough to work but not strong enough to do damage. These detergents help accomplish the cleaning, reducing the need for high pressure. After a short time, the dirt is simply rinsed away at low pressure, leaving your home looking beautiful!
There Are Several Benefits To A Professional Soft Wash:
- Reduced risk of damage
- Increased safety for workers
- More efficient cleaning
- Better cleaning designed to last longer

Many Thanks to Adwell Services and to the Shipley's network for recommending them. We had them power wash our front steps and sidewalk. They also did our deck in the back. See the before/during/after below. We knew it needed to be cleaned, but had no idea it was that bad! Our back deck is equally impressive now. You can reach Matt Adwell at 410-990-0991 or at matt@adwellservices.com
Based on the great reviews so far, I thought I'd try Adwell for pressure washing my 3-story townhome and removing some rust stains on my driveway. They did not disappoint! The quoting and scheduling process was very easy, and the pre-appointment communication was perfect. The house looks great and I will definitely use their services again! Highly recommend!
Outstanding in every way. This is the second time we've used Adwell for window and siding cleaning. Both times the service was outstanding, on time, professional, friendly, and completed as promised. Best of all Matt and the Adwell folks are flexible. Talk with them about any special problems or concerns around your house and they will take care of it on the spot. Otherwise you'll hardly know they've been there, except that everything sparkles.
Our house exterior looks better than I ever would have imagined possible. Adwell was easy to communicate with and gave prompt informative responses to our queries. They even came back to touch up a couple days later. Would definitely hire again.
Every bit of mold and algae was removed from our home without the damage that high pressure can cause. Also - we have a high three story house, and no ladders were needed to perform our house washing. So - we were delighted with Adwell Services.
Matt was very quick to respond to my request. The two guys that came out to power wash my house and deck did a remarkable job!! Everything is spit-shined, as my Navy husband likes to say. Their prices are very competitive. I will use Adwell again next year and highly recommend to all my neighbors. Thank you, Matt!!!

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Pressure/Soft Washing Service
Power washing accomplishes cleaning by using water pressure to blast away dirt & debris. Low pressure cleaning, also called soft washing, uses biodegradable detergents to accomplish the cleaning. Because the cleaning is done by the detergent, high pressure is not needed for the cleaning. In many situations this produces a higher quality product with reduced risk of damage.
Cleaning siding with low pressure reduces the risk of damage to your home. Power washing can damage windows & blast away caulking & sealant. It can also force water underneath the siding & into the soffits, causing issues with mold. Finally, high pressure can create marks on the siding that permanently damage the appearance of the home
We dilute our professional house wash detergent so that it is safe to use around landscaping with minimal risk.
That is up to personal preference. Algae & mildew typically return every 2-3 years in our area, though that can vary depending on the setting of your home. Many of our clients like to have their home washed annually to prevent algae/mildew & to wash away dirt/bugs/debris etc.
We offer applying spray wax as an option with a low pressure house wash. This is a wax similar to what is used at a car wash & is designed to add a bit of water repellency to the siding. This may improve the appearance & keep it clean longer.
We include washing the exterior face of the gutters (the part you see when you look up from the ground) with our standard house wash. This washes away the algae, mildew, dirt, & debris. However, some gutters develop dark striping over time that does not simply wash away. Gutter brightening is a process to lighten or remove these dark stripes.
Because most composite decking has a finished surface, power washing can cause permanent damage to the deck. We use professional detergent & low pressure to safely clean composite decks & railings.
The detergents used to professionally clean wood lower the pH level of the wood. After cleaning & rinsing the wood, applying a mild acid neutralizes the wood, restoring the natural pH level. This improves the appearance of the wood & prepares it to be stained or sealed.
We don’t currently offer those services. However, we are able to clean wood surfaces to prepare them for stain or sealant.
Concrete can be cleaned safely using moderate pressure & a professional surface cleaner designed to produce an even appearance. Applying detergent brightens the appearance of the concrete & destroys algae & mildew, helping the concrete stay clean longer.
