Frequently Asked Pressure Washing Questions - Answered By Northeast Softwash

As your #1 source of pressure washing in Scarsdale, we get plenty of questions about the pressure washing process every day. Many of the questions we get are more common than others. Below, you'll find answers to some of your most-asked pressure washing questions.

Is That Black Stuff On My Roof Really Not Dirt?

No; it's actually a form of algae known as Gloeocapsa magma that causes the unsightly appearance of black stains and streaks on your roof. This alga spawns from airborne spores that will continue to spread until you have your roof thoroughly cleaned and sanitized. At Northeast Softwash, we offer roof cleaning services that destroy algae growth and eliminates the discoloration plaguing your roof. Keep this important installation of your home clean and algae free by investing in our top-notch roof services!

I Have Old, Set In Stains. Does Your Service Clean Those Up?

Removing embedded surface stains is one of our main specialties! Our pressure washing cleanses deep and restores an even, clean appearance to your exteriors in as little as a few hours. After just one service with us, those once prominent and unattractive stains will be a thing of the past, and your home's beauty and curb appeal will be at an all-time high again.

What’s The Difference Between Your Services And Me Just Buying A DIY Pressure Washer?

While it is possible to rent or buy a pressure washer and perform the job yourself, for the best results, it's often best to leave the job in the hands of the pros. Not only do professional pressure washing contractors often have access to higher-grade equipment, but they often have the experience necessary to get the job done quicker and more effectively.

Are Your Cleaning Methods Or Chemicals Environmentally Safe?

Our team of industry experts is dedicated to environmental responsibility, and we avoid using harsh cleaning solutions. We want your exterior clean without concern for harming the ecosystem or creating runoff from our work that could harm children, pets, plants, or other living things. Our soft and pressure washing techniques are safe and responsible.
