DMS Soft Washing – Walsall, Bloxwich, Cannock, Wolverhampton & the West Midlands.
Our professional soft washing service safely restores render, roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways without using high pressure.

Why Choose Soft Washing?
Soft washing gently removes algae, moss, and black stains from render, roofs, patios, and cladding without using high pressure. It cleans deeper than jet washing, killing growth at the root so surfaces stay cleaner for longer.
Regular soft washing helps:
Protect render, tiles, and sealants from damage
Prevent damp, staining, and regrowth
Keep your home looking fresh and well-maintained
Improve kerb appeal and property value

FAQ – Soft Washing by DMS
1. What is soft washing?
Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning method combined with specialist cleaning solutions to safely remove moss, algae, mould and organic staining.
It is the correct technique for render, cladding, walls and roofs, where high pressure would cause damage.
---
2. Do you soft wash roofs?
Yes — we provide a full roof moss removal and soft wash treatment.
This includes:
Manual scraping of moss using roof-safe tools
Treating the roof with a professional biocide (soft wash)
Killing remaining spores to prevent regrowth
Restoring the roof colour naturally over time
We do not pressure wash roofs.
--
3. What surfaces can you soft wash?
We soft wash:
Roof tiles (after scraping)
Render (K-rend, monocouche, painted render)
Cladding
Exterior walls
Fascia and soffits
Certain stone surfaces
Garden walls and shaded areas with organic growth
Soft washing is safe for surfaces that cannot withstand pressure washing.
---
4. What does roof scraping and soft washing achieve?
The process removes:
Moss
Lichen
Algae
Black and green staining
Organic growth that damages tiles
The biocide continues working for months, leaving the roof cleaner, brighter and better protected.
---
5. Is soft washing safe for roofs?
Yes. Roof soft washing uses very low pressure and relies on the biocide treatment to do the work, not force or abrasion.
It protects tile coatings, prevents water ingress and avoids the possible damage caused by pressure washers.
---
6. How long do roof soft washing results last?
Typical results last for many years, depending on:
Shade
Moss levels
Tile type
Weather exposure
Nearby trees
Many customers re-treat around every 5 years to keep the roof clean and moss-free.
--
7. Will soft washing damage my render or cladding?
No. Soft washing is designed specifically for delicate surfaces such as render, painted walls and cladding.
We use controlled low pressure and the correct solution strength to clean safely without removing coatings or causing streaks.
---
8. How long does soft washing take?
Most soft washing jobs take 1–3 hours, depending on the size and severity of staining.
Roof scraping may take much longer depending on roof size and moss levels.
--
9. Do I need to be home during the work?
No. As long as we have access to the property we can complete the soft wash or roof treatment while you’re out.
