Proud Agents for Ultrasoft Australia
As proud North West Tasmania agents for Ultrasoft Australia, we use industry-backed soft washing systems and professional cleaning methods focused on long-term surface care and preservation.
We believe quality exterior cleaning comes down to proper technique, attention to detail, and using the right methods for every surface.
What Is Soft Washing?
Soft washing is a low-pressure exterior cleaning method that uses specialised cleaning solutions to break down and treat mould, algae, lichen, grime and other organic growth at the source. Unlike high-pressure washing, which relies mainly on force, soft washing does the cleaning through the treatment itself, followed by a gentle rinse.
That makes it ideal for surfaces that can be damaged by excessive pressure, including painted exteriors, weatherboards, rendered walls, roof surfaces, eaves and fascias.
Soft washing is about more than spraying water on a wall. It requires the right treatment, the right equipment and the right method for each surface. With years of practical building experience, G2G Gutters understands how to clean exterior materials carefully while helping homeowners avoid unnecessary wear and damage.
Why More Homeowners Are Choosing Soft Washing
Soft washing is not just about making a house look cleaner for a few weeks. Because it treats mould, algae and biological growth more thoroughly, it can deliver longer-lasting results than pressure washing alone.
Soft washing can help:
- Remove mould, algae, lichen, dirt and built-up organic staining.
- Protect painted surfaces and exterior finishes from unnecessary pressure damage.
- Reduce the risk of regrowth by treating contaminants at the source.
- Improve street appeal and refresh the look of your home.
- Extend the life of exterior surfaces through gentler cleaning methods.

Soft Washing vs Pressure Washing
Not every exterior surface should be cleaned the same way. Pressure washing has its place on some harder surfaces, but it can be too aggressive for many parts of the home.
Soft washing is generally the better choice when:
- The surface is painted, rendered, weatherboard, cladded or tiled.
- You are dealing with mould, algae, lichen or mildew rather than just loose dirt.
- You want a lower-risk method that is gentler on finishes and coatings.
- You want results that last longer by treating the cause of the growth, not just the visible staining
Ideal for Tasmania’s Conditions
Tasmania’s cooler, wetter conditions can create the perfect environment for mould, algae and lichen to build up on exterior surfaces over time.
Homes in shaded areas, coastal locations or spots with limited sun exposure are especially prone to green staining and organic growth, making gentle, regular exterior cleaning an important part of long-term maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is soft washing?
Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning method that uses specialised cleaning solutions to remove mould, algae, lichen, dirt and biological growth from exterior surfaces.
It is designed to clean effectively without the risks that can come with high-pressure washing on delicate finishes.
What surfaces can be soft washed?
Soft washing is suitable for weatherboards, rendered walls, cladding, painted surfaces, roofs, eaves, fascias, garage doors and many other exterior surfaces around the home.
Is soft washing safe for painted surfaces?
Yes, when done correctly. Soft washing uses much lower pressure than standard pressure cleaning, which makes it a safer choice for painted and more delicate exterior finishes.
How much does soft washing cost?
Pricing depends on the size of the house, whether it is single or double storey, access to the roofline and the amount of debris that needs to be removed.

Is soft washing better than pressure washing?
For many house exteriors, yes. Soft washing is usually the better option for painted, rendered, weatherboard, cladded and roof surfaces because it is gentler and treats organic growth more thoroughly.
Pressure washing is better suited to harder surfaces that can handle more force
Does soft washing remove mould and algae?
Yes. Soft washing is specifically designed to treat mould, algae, lichen and similar biological growth at the source, rather than simply blasting the surface clean.
That is one of the reasons the results often last longer than pressure washing alone.
How often should a house be soft washed?
That depends on the location of the home, the amount of shade, moisture exposure and how quickly organic growth returns.
Homes in damp, shaded or coastal areas often benefit from more regular cleaning than homes in drier, sunnier conditions
