Muskoka has beautiful lakes and lots of forest and lovely cottages, where it is a perfect place to get away. Maintaining the outside of a cottage is very difficult, most especially with mold, algae, dirt, and other weather damage. Two potential solutions that many homeowners turn to are pressure washing, but this is sometimes too harsh for delicate surfaces. When it gets that way, soft washing comes in as an alternative method for effective, long-lasting, and gentle cleaning, just right for Muskoka's variable environment.
What Is Soft Washing?
Soft washing is a low-pressure cleanup process that relies on professional biodegradable cleaning solutions to break down dirt, molds, and mildew from surfaces without causing damage. Besides it, soft washing does the same without being high-powered by water streams. It should be understood that soft washing decks just as powerfully would last just as long or longer without damaging the surface by doing so.
Why Soft Washing Is the Best Choice for Muskoka Cottages
1. Preservation of Delicate Cottage Exteriors
Most cottages in Muskoka use wood or log in their exteriors and have cedar shake roofs, which are very susceptible to damage through pressure washing. Soft washing cleans all these materials without stripping any protective coatings or cracking.
2. Eliminates Mold, Algae & Mildew at the Root
Make your place mold, mildew, and algae-spell. The damp, humid climate of Muskoka has perfected the mold, mildew, and algae for growth in the shaded areas. Soft washing does not wash them away but kills their roots, making it harder for them to spread or detain contamination while keeping the cottage clean longer.
3. Environmentally Friendly & Safe
Soft washing cleaning uses biodegradable cleaning solutions, which do not affect the plants, pets, and the nearby water environment. Soft washing also uses lesser amounts of water than that of pressure washing, which is yet another environmentally conscious way.
4. Increase the Life of Your Outside Cottage
Accumulated dirt and organic growth may weaken the siding, roofs, and decks into costly repairs over time. Soft wash doesn't just clean but also provides an additional layer of protection on the surfaces and prolongs the life of these exterior surfaces of your cottage.
5. Enhances Curb Appeal & Property Value
A nicely maintained Muskoka cottage has that extra sparkle in more ways than one; the increased value of the property is only one aspect. Soft washing restores your cottage to all its beauty, making your home more inviting and preserving the value of your investment.
