VivoVu uses a low-pressure soft washing process specifically designed for residential siding and exterior surfaces. Unlike high-pressure washing, soft washing applies cleaning solutions at low pressure to break down algae, mildew, dirt, and airborne pollutants at the surface level — then rinses clean without the risk of forcing water behind your siding, stripping paint, or damaging vinyl. It’s the right method for exterior surfaces that need a thorough clean without the force.
Soft washing removes algae, mildew, and grime from vinyl siding without warping, cracking, or forcing water behind the panels.
Low pressure cleaning safely lifts dirt and biological buildup from aluminum siding without denting, scratching, or disturbing the finish.
Our soft wash method removes surface contamination from painted walls and trim without stripping, fading, or peeling the paint.
Soffits and fascia collect dirt, cobwebs, and mildew that are easy to overlook — we include them as part of a complete exterior clean.
Window and door trim is cleaned along with the rest of your exterior — so the finished result looks consistent and complete top to bottom.
We don't perform paint correction or oxidation removal. If your siding is faded or chalking, we'll let you know before we start so expectations are clear.
Green or black streaks running down your siding are typically algae or mold growth feeding on moisture and organic debris. Soft washing removes it at the source rather than just masking the surface.
Uneven discoloration and dark patches across your siding are usually years of airborne pollutants and environmental buildup that have settled into the surface — and soft washing lifts them cleanly.
Fuzzy green growth in shaded or low-light areas of your exterior is almost always moss or algae. Left untreated it spreads and works its way into seams and joints — soft washing stops it before it becomes a bigger issue.
If you notice a musty smell near your foundation or exterior walls, mildew has likely taken hold on or behind your siding. A professional soft wash removes the mildew and the smell that comes with it.
A clean exterior isn’t just about appearance. Regular house washing removes the biological growth and environmental buildup that breaks down siding materials over time — extending the life of your exterior and protecting the investment you’ve made in your home.
Algae and mildew break down siding materials over time. Regular soft washing removes the growth before it causes lasting damage.
Years of buildup can make a well-maintained home look neglected. A professional house wash restores your exterior to how it should look.
Soft washing uses low pressure — eliminating the risk of cracked caulking, water intrusion, or paint damage that high-pressure washing can cause.
Cleaning solutions penetrate and break down biological growth at the root — not just surface level — so results last longer than a rinse alone.
Mold, mildew, and algae on your exterior can affect air quality near entryways and windows. Removing it regularly keeps the area around your home cleaner.
VivoVu is fully insured and WSIB covered. Every house washing job is completed by a trained team that knows how to treat different exterior surfaces properly.
We start with a pre-rinse of the exterior and assess the siding type, condition, and extent of buildup before applying any cleaning solutions.
Cleaning solution is applied at low pressure to break down algae, mildew, dirt, and biological growth across all covered surfaces — siding, soffits, fascia, and trim.
Once the solution has done its work, the entire exterior is rinsed thoroughly from top to bottom — removing the loosened buildup without leaving residue or streaking.
We do a walkthrough of the exterior before we leave to confirm the result meets our standard. You'll be notified when the job is complete — no need to be home.
Most house washing estimates can be provided remotely — just share your address and we’ll get back to you with clear, upfront pricing.

Pressure washing uses high-pressure water to remove surface dirt and is best suited for hard surfaces like concrete, driveways, and patios. Soft washing uses low pressure combined with cleaning solutions to break down biological growth like algae, mildew, and mold — making it safe and effective for siding, painted surfaces, and other materials that high pressure could damage.
High-pressure washing can crack, warp, or force water behind vinyl siding — causing moisture damage that isn’t immediately visible. That’s why VivoVu uses a soft wash method for all siding surfaces. Low pressure is all that’s needed to clean vinyl effectively, and it eliminates the risk of damage entirely.
Our soft wash process removes algae, mildew, mold, dirt, and airborne pollutants that accumulate on your siding and exterior surfaces over time. It does not remove paint oxidation, fading, or chalking — those are surface material issues rather than contamination.
Most homeowners benefit from having their exterior washed once a year — typically in spring after the winter months. Homes with heavy tree coverage, shaded north-facing walls, or near high-traffic roads may benefit from more frequent cleaning.
