Soft washing across Southampton and Hampshire

Southampton is a major port city on the south coast, home to the cruise terminals, two universities and a large student population alongside established suburbs. That is where we come in: we provide soft washing for homeowners, landlords, managing agents and commercial property owners across Southampton, including Bassett, Millbrook and Ocean Village.

We provide soft washing across Southampton and the wider Hampshire area. Whether it is a small one-off job or a larger project, we give you one clear price before any work is booked.

Local buildings are largely Victorian terraces, student HMOs, inter-war semis and waterfront flats, so each quote takes into account the building, access and when you need it done.

Many Southampton homeowners book soft washing in spring or early autumn, when mild, dry weather gives the biocide the best chance to work.

Garden walls, fences and garages in Southampton are often cleaned at the same visit as the house, so the whole property looks consistent.

Southampton soft washing: common questions

What chemicals are used in soft washing?

Most soft wash solutions are based on sodium hypochlorite, the active ingredient in bleach, diluted to a strength that suits the surface, with a surfactant to help it cling. Some jobs use quaternary ammonium biocides instead, which work more slowly over days or weeks and are often used on roofs and delicate stone. The solution is matched to the surface and the type of staining.
