Soft Wash House Washing & Siding Cleaning in Lexington, SC

Gentle, low-pressure house washing that erases algae, mildew and grime while protecting the siding you paid for.

Professional Soft Wash House Washing Services in Lexington, SC


Midlands homes work hard. Spring coats everything in yellow pine pollen. Summer humidity turns the shady side of the house green. Red clay splashes up along the foundation after every storm, and mildew quietly settles into the corners where the sun never reaches. Before long, a home that should look sharp starts looking tired.



Midlands Softwash LLC provides professional house washing services that bring your home back to life, the safe way. We use a low-pressure soft washing system and biodegradable cleaning solutions to remove algae, mold, mildew and dirt from every surface of your home's exterior. Your siding comes out clean, your paint stays put, and your home looks cared for again.

Why Soft Washing Is the Right Way to Wash Your House

Here's something most homeowners don't hear until it's too late: the way your house is washed matters just as much as whether it gets washed at all.

High-pressure washing may look powerful, but on a home it often does more harm than good. It can crack and warp vinyl siding, strip paint and stain, etch brick and mortar, break window seals, and force water behind your siding, where it can lead to hidden mold, rot and moisture problems you won't see until the repair bill arrives. It can also create warranty problems with some siding manufacturers.


Worse, pressure washing only knocks growth off the surface. The algae and mildew spores left behind grow right back, often within months.



Soft washing solves both problems. Instead of blasting your home, our cleaning solution does the work. It breaks down and kills organic growth at the root, then we rinse it away at roughly the pressure of a garden hose. The result is a deeper clean, a safer process, and a home that stays clean far longer.

Soft Wash Siding Cleaning for Every Home Exterior

Vinyl & Aluminum Siding Cleaning

Vinyl is the most common siding in Lexington County, and the most likely to turn green on the north side. Our soft wash removes algae and mildew without cracking panels or forcing water behind them.

Brick & Stucco Soft Washing

Brick and stucco are porous, which means algae and dirt settle deep into the surface. Soft washing reaches into those pores to lift stains without eroding mortar or damaging stucco finishes.

Wood & Composite Siding Cleaning

Wood and composite exteriors need a gentle touch. Our low-pressure approach cleans thoroughly without splintering wood or stripping protective finishes.

Painted & Stained Surfaces

High pressure can peel paint in seconds. Soft washing cleans painted and stained surfaces while leaving the finish intact, which protects your investment in that last paint job.

What Our Customers Are Saying


Soft Wash House Washing FAQs


  • How does soft wash house washing work?

    Soft washing uses a biodegradable cleaning solution applied at low pressure to break down and kill algae, mold and mildew at the root. The surface is then gently rinsed. The solution does the cleaning instead of high pressure, so siding, paint and brick stay undamaged.

  • Why is soft washing better than pressure washing a house?

    Pressure washing can crack siding, strip paint, etch brick and force water behind your walls, and it only removes growth from the surface, so it returns quickly. Soft washing cleans more thoroughly, kills growth at the source, and keeps your home clean longer without the risk of damage.

  • Is pressure washing bad for vinyl siding?

    It can be. High pressure can crack or warp vinyl panels and drive water behind them, leading to hidden moisture problems. Soft washing is the safer, professional method for cleaning vinyl siding.

  • Is soft washing safe for all siding types?

    Yes. Soft washing is safe for vinyl, aluminum, brick, stucco, wood, composite, and painted or stained surfaces. We adjust our cleaning solution to match each material.

  • How often should I get my house washed?

    Most Midlands homes benefit from a house wash about once a year. Homes with heavy shade, nearby trees or lakefront exposure may need it more often, and we'll give you an honest recommendation.

  • Will house washing harm my plants or lawn?

    No. We pre-wet and protect landscaping before we start, use biodegradable solutions, and rinse plants thoroughly afterward. Pets should stay inside until surfaces dry.

  • What's the green stuff on the side of my house?

    That green or black film is usually algae or mildew, especially common on north-facing and shaded walls in our humid climate. Soft washing kills it at the root so it doesn't grow right back.

  • Do I need to be home during my house wash?

    No. We just need access to an outdoor water spigot, and we'll let you know when we're finished.

  • How do I choose the best house washing company near me?

    Choose a company that specializes in soft washing, carries insurance, and holds industry certification such as PWNA. Ask how they protect landscaping, and avoid anyone planning to blast your siding with high pressure. Midlands Softwash checks every box.
