House Soft Washing Services
Gentle, effective exterior cleaning that protects your home while removing mold, mildew, algae, and stubborn stains. Experience the soft wash difference.
Why Choose Soft Washing?
Your home's exterior faces constant assault from the elements—mold, mildew, algae, pollen, dirt, and Charlotte's notorious red clay. Traditional high-pressure washing can damage siding, force water behind walls, and void warranties. Soft washing offers a better solution.
Our soft wash process uses specialized, biodegradable cleaning solutions at low pressure to safely clean and sanitize your home's exterior. The results last longer, look better, and protect your investment—all while using The NOVA Standard of detail discipline and professional care.
