Why soft wash

The house wash that makes paint look new again.

A tired-looking house is usually just a dirty one.

High pressure on painted walls strips paint, forces water into the cladding and can void paint warranties. Soft washing does the opposite: a purpose-mixed cleaning solution and gentle low pressure lift mould, mildew, lichen and grime, then rinse the surface clean.

Because we kill the growth rather than just blasting the surface of it, the finish stays cleaner for far longer than a straight pressure wash. Most homes come up looking freshly painted, for a fraction of the cost of actually repainting.

It's the wash we recommend for almost every painted home on the Gold Coast and in Brisbane. If you're getting ready to sell, prepping for painters, or just sick of the green creeping up the southern wall, this is where to start.

“Nicky did an outstanding job washing our house in preparation for sale. He arrived on time, was thorough and professional, and took great care cleaning all areas including the walls, windows, roof and gutters. He also left everything neat and tidy when he finished. The house looked fantastic afterwards.”

“Nicky service was prompt and efficient. His cost to clean a 2 story home was very fair. The garden was left in the same condition as they started. I have no problems recommending Fresh Exterior Clean.”

Fair pricing

What does house washing cost?

Every home is different, so Nick prices from a photo rather than a one-size price list. What moves the number: the size of the home, single or multi storey, how much growth is on the walls, and how easy the access is.

A soft wash costs a fraction of what repainting does, and the reviews keep using the same words about the pricing: fair, reasonable, very competitive. One customer even paid extra because she thought the quote was too cheap for the work done.

Text a photo of your place to 0431 747 515 and you'll usually have a price the same day. No site visit needed and no obligation to book.

Good to know

Common questions about house washing

Will soft washing damage my paint or render?

No. That's the whole point of soft washing. We use low pressure and the right cleaning solution for the surface, so painted render and weatherboard are cleaned without the stripping or water damage a high-pressure blaster can cause.

How much does a house wash cost?

It depends on the size of the home, how many storeys, and how much growth is on the walls, which is why Nick quotes from a photo. Text one to 0431 747 515 and you'll usually have a fair, no-obligation price the same day. It's almost always a fraction of the cost of repainting.

How long will it stay clean?

Because we treat the mould and lichen at the root rather than just rinsing the surface, a soft wash lasts much longer than a plain pressure clean. Most homes stay looking fresh for a good while, depending on shade and tree cover.

Are the cleaning solutions safe for my plants and pets?

Yes, handled properly. We use purpose-mixed solutions matched to the surface, and gardens and plants are rinsed and protected during the clean. Keep pets inside while we work and everything is back to normal as soon as we're done.

How long does a house wash take?

Most single-storey homes take a few hours, and larger or two-storey homes can take around half a day. Nick will give you a time frame with your quote so you can plan around it.

Do I need to be home during the wash?

No. As long as we can reach the walls and an outdoor tap, you don't need to be there. Plenty of customers come home to a house that looks freshly painted, with before and after photos on their phone.

Do you need to get on my roof or use ladders on the walls?

Most wall washing is done from the ground with water-fed poles and low-pressure gear, so there's minimal ladder work on your paint. Where access is needed we do it safely and carefully.

Do you wash houses before a sale or repaint?

All the time. A soft wash is the cheapest way to lift street appeal before photos and open homes, and painters want clean, mould-free walls before they start. Tell Nick your deadline and he'll work around it.
