Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my composite deck slippery or discolored?
Algae, mold, and mildew often build up on shaded or damp areas. These can make the deck slick and cause discoloration if not properly cleaned.
Can power washing damage composite decking?
Yes. High-pressure washing can cause surface etching or remove protective coatings. Soft washing gently lifts contaminants without abrasion.
What’s the best way to clean Trex or other composite brands?
Our proprietary soft washing solution is safe for all major composite brands like Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon, and delivers deeper, longer-lasting clean.
How often should a composite deck be cleaned?
We recommend professional cleaning every 1–2 years, depending on exposure to shade, moisture, and foot traffic.

We've worked with SoftWash for many years and they provide great service and high-quality cleaning. The team works incredibly hard, and we are always impressed with their thoroughness and the results. In fact, it drives us crazy when we see all of our neighbors' rooves and siding with the green and black discoloring that makes their homes look run-down... if only they knew how easy it was to get it cleaned! We're getting ready to list our home, and the courteous and professional SoftWash team spent six hours on our property yesterday cleaning the roof, stucco siding, windows, pathways, deck and detached shed. We're ready to go!

I am very pleased with the work, power washing the outside of the house including the wood fence. The crew paid great attention to detail, taking extra time for the gutters that didn't come clean with only spraying. So they got a good scrubbing too. Thanks, crew, also for cleaning everything up when you were done.

SoftWash has refreshed our exterior completely. We should have done this sooner! The staff were very pleasant to deal with. Kevin kept me informed along the process. Before the final treatment he walked around the house completely and noted what the final treatment should accomplish. At the end of the day, he walked around the house exterior to be sure I was satisfied with the end results. It looks awesome!

SoftWash did a fantastic job getting our store awnings and façades clean and ready for the busy Spring and Summer months. They were incredibly easy to work with and get everything scheduled, communication was excellent, and the work speaks for itself.

What a difference the stucco on my home is after having Softwash Platoon work their magic. It was a professional job from start to finish, and the employees were courteous and knowledgeable. The black streaks are gone on the stucco and my roof looks spotless. Dealing with Donna and Chris was easy and helpful. And the guys on-site were awesome. Well done, y’all.
