Question 1

What is the difference between pressure washing and soft washing?

Accepted Answer

Pressure washing: (sometimes called power washing) uses a high-pressure stream of water to blast away dirt, grime, mold, and other contaminants from surfaces​. This intense pressure dislodges debris without needing heavy chemical assistance, relying on sheer force to clean. In some cases, detergents or surfactants can be added upstream or via a detergent injector to help break down stubborn stains, but the primary cleaning action is the high-pressure water itself.

Soft Washing: Soft washing uses a low-pressure water spray combined with specialized cleaning solutions to gently clean surfaces. Instead of brute force, it relies on chemical agents (detergents, surfactants, and often biocides like bleach) to loosen dirt, organic growth, and stains, which are then rinsed off with a gentle stream of water​​

Question 2

What is the typical cost of pressure washing and soft washing?

Accepted Answer

​The costs of pressure washing and soft washing services in Georgia can vary based on several factors, including the size of the area to be cleaned, the type of surface, the degree of contamination, and the specific location within the state. Below is an overview of typical pricing for these services:​
Pressure Washing Costs:
 • Residential Homes:
    • Single-Story Homes (1,500–2,000 sq ft): The average cost ranges from $266 to $700. 
    • Two-Story Homes: Prices can range from $400 to $1,400, depending on the home's size and complexity. ​

• Driveways:
    • Cleaning a standard two-car driveway (approximately 640 sq ft) typically costs between $100 and $500.

• Decks and Patios:
    • Pressure washing services for decks or patios generally range from $100 to $400, influenced by the size and material of the surface. ​

Soft Washing Costs:
 • House Washing:
    • Soft washing a home, which is a gentler alternative to pressure washing suitable for delicate surfaces, typically costs between $450 and $850. ​

Factors Influencing Costs:
Several elements can affect the pricing of pressure and soft washing services:
 • Size of the Area: Larger surfaces require more time and resources, increasing the cost.​
 • Degree of Contamination: Heavily soiled areas or surfaces with significant mold, mildew, or algae growth may require specialized treatments, adding to the expense.​
 • Surface Material: Different materials may necessitate specific cleaning methods or solutions, impacting the overall price.​
 • Accessibility: Hard-to-reach areas or surfaces that require special equipment can increase labor and costs.​
 • Location: Prices can vary within Georgia due to local market rates and the cost of living in different regions.​

It's advisable to obtain quotes from multiple service providers to compare prices and services. Ensure that the company you choose is reputable, insured, and uses appropriate cleaning methods for your specific needs.

Question 3

How do I choose the best company for my soft wash and pressure washing needs?

Accepted Answer

Choosing the right company for soft washing and pressure washing is critical to protecting your property, achieving long-lasting results, and avoiding costly damage. Here’s what to look for—and why it matters:
 • Proven knowledge of both soft washing and pressure washing
 A professional company understands when low-pressure soft washing is required (roofs, siding, stucco, painted surfaces) versus when controlled pressure washing is appropriate (concrete, brick, masonry). Using the wrong method can cause etching, water intrusion, or surface failure.
 • Proper chemicals and application methods
 Effective exterior cleaning isn’t just about water pressure—it’s about using the correct cleaning agents, dwell times, and rinse techniques to safely remove mold, mildew, algae, and organic staining without harming surfaces, landscaping, or nearby structures.
 • Licensing, insurance, and safety standards
 Reputable companies carry proper insurance, follow environmental best practices, and use professional equipment designed for exterior cleaning—not consumer-grade machines that increase risk.
 • Experience with your specific surface type
 Not all homes and buildings are the same. Vinyl siding, Hardie board, brick, stone, concrete, wood, and roofing materials all require different approaches. Experience matters.
 • Transparent communication and expectations
 A quality provider explains the process, sets realistic expectations, and stands behind their work—rather than offering “one-size-fits-all” solutions or unusually low pricing.
At Proline Pressure Washing, LLC, we combine industry knowledge, advanced equipment, and surface-specific cleaning methods to ensure your property is cleaned safely, effectively, and correctly the first time. Our approach is rooted in education, attention to detail, and protecting your investment—not just making it look clean for a day.
If you’re comparing companies, always ask how they clean—not just what they clean. That difference is what separates true professionals from shortcuts.
