Wellington’s changing environment, pollution, and weather can cause wear and tear on outdoor surfaces over time, making them look dull and vulnerable to damage. Choosing the right cleaning method is crucial to maintain the beauty and longevity of your home’s exterior. While water blasting might seem like a quick cleaning solution, soft washing is safer, longer lasting, and eco-friendly.
Discover the Benefits of Soft Washing
Our team uses soft washing methods in all our services. Chemwash was the first to introduce this technique to the New Zealand market in 1981 as a national brand, providing an alternative to high-pressure water blasting. When we arrive for a job, we use specialised detergents and low-pressure equipment to complete the work safely and efficiently.
The benefits of opting for soft washing over high-pressure water blasting include:
- Reduces the Risk of Damage: Soft washing is a safer alternative to high-pressure water blasting. Using a gentler approach avoids the damage risks of more forceful methods. Soft washing protects the integrity of your exterior surface, helping to prevent chipping paintwork, splintering wood, gauging cladding, or causing below-surface water damage. Soft washing is still highly effective in removing contaminants while also helping you avoid expensive damage.
- Lasting Cleanliness: Chemwash detergents effectively remove natural growth and maintain cleanliness for longer than water blasting, which is only a temporary solution. Soft washing also effectively cleans surfaces and eliminates the microbes that cause discolouration on roofs and other surfaces.

- Better For the Environment: Our detergents are eco-friendly and break down dirt without harmful chemicals. Soft washing allows us to prioritise the safety of your property, our team, and the surrounding environment. Soft washing also uses significantly less water consumption, which helps to conserve natural resources.
