Soft washing uses low-pressure water and cleaners to safely remove mould, mildew, and algae from timber decks, cladding, and composite surfaces. It kills growth at the root without damaging wood fibres or composite finishes, unlike high-pressure methods that cause splintering, gouging, or streaking.
