Soft Washing for EIFS (Synthetic Stucco) in Your Area

Soft wash for eifs (synthetic stucco). Low-pressure cleaning with a mild solution that kills mold, mildew and algae on siding, roofs and other delicate surfaces without damaging them. Typical cost $300-$800.

When we handle soft washing for eifs (synthetic stucco) in your area, it comes down to three things: protecting your plants and property, cleaning with the right method, and walking the job with you at the end. With eifs (synthetic stucco), the right approach is soft wash.

How we clean it

Soft washCleaning method
Soft wash only, typically under 300 PSIPressure

Cleaning solution: A mild, EIFS-safe detergent solution with a gentle rinse.

Caring for eifs (synthetic stucco)

EIFS looks like stucco but is a foam insulation board with a thin acrylic finish coat. It dents and gouges easily, and water forced behind it is a well-known cause of hidden damage, so it is cleaned with low pressure and solution, never blasted.

Avoid: Any high pressure, which can tear the finish coat or drive water into the wall system.

How often: Every 1-2 years.

When to book soft washing for eifs (synthetic stucco)

  • Green, black or gray film on siding, especially on the north side
  • Black streaks running down the roof
  • Moss or lichen on shingles or tile
  • A musty smell around shaded walls
  • Pressure washing would damage the surface

Why it gets dirty

  • Algae, mold and mildew that grow in shade and humidity
  • Roof algae that feeds on the limestone filler in shingles
  • Pollen and dust that give growth something to hold on to
  • Sprinklers and gutters that keep walls damp

Safe steps for homeowners

  • Trim back branches and shrubs that touch the house so walls can dry
  • Keep gutters clear so water doesn't overflow down the siding
  • Spot-clean small areas with a soft brush and mild detergent
  • Aim sprinklers away from the house

Why more pressure isn’t better

  • Using too strong a mix, which can burn plants and fade surfaces
  • Using too weak a mix, which leaves growth alive and it returns quickly
  • Climbing ladders with a spray wand and chemicals
  • Mistaking soft washing for 'pressure washing on low'
