Soft Washing in Allston, Boston MA
Low pressure with a cleaning solution instead of blasting. The right call on anything fragile.
Allston specifics
Nothing gets coated in Allston before it's washed and dry. Nearly every original Allston three-decker has lead under the newer coats, which puts exterior scraping under federal RRP rules. Paint does not bond to mildew, chalk or salt film.
What actually happens on site
Low pressure with a cleaning solution instead of blasting. The right call on anything fragile.
Low pressure — around 200 to 500 PSI — with a solution that does the work chemically. Right choice on painted surfaces, older wood, and roofing where pressure would cause damage.
The mistake we get called to fix
Assuming more pressure means cleaner. On the wrong surface it means damage you pay to repair.
