Low-pressure soft washing for delicate surfaces that high pressure would damage. Across Sydney's Northern Beaches.
Our soft washing services
Before After Soft Washing
Soft washing uses low pressure and a tailored cleaning solution to break down mould, algae and grime at the source, then rinse it away. It is the right method for render, painted surfaces, cladding and anything fragile.
It also lasts longer than blasting alone, because it treats the organic growth rather than just knocking the top layer off.
Northern Beaches homes give soft washing plenty to do. Render grows black spot mould in the shade, weatherboards go green on the south side, and walls near bush collect a film of dust and organic grime. None of it should ever be hit with high pressure, because render chips, paint strips and cladding lets water in behind it.
Our mix is blended on site to match the surface and the level of growth, applied gently, given time to work, then rinsed away. The finish is even and streak free, and because the growth is dead rather than just knocked back, the wall stays cleaner well beyond a pressure-only clean. Every job ends with a walk-around together, and anything not right is re-done before we pack up.

How it works
The same careful process on every job, so the result is right every time.
We rinse the surface and the surrounding areas down first, wetting plants and prepping everything for the wash.
We apply our cleaning mix at a specific strength matched to the surface and the situation, so it breaks down mould and grime at the source.
We gently wash everything away for a clean, even finish, then check the result is perfect before we leave.

Pressure cleaning uses high pressure for hard surfaces like concrete. Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution for delicate surfaces like render and cladding. We use whichever suits the surface.
Because it treats the mould and algae rather than just rinsing it, results typically last longer than high pressure alone. Shaded and bush-facing walls will eventually regrow and can be re-done.
Render, painted walls, weatherboard, fibre cement cladding and older or delicate masonry. High pressure on these surfaces chips render, strips paint and forces water in behind cladding, and that damage cannot be undone. If you are not sure what your walls need, do not worry, we assess every surface on site and choose the method for you.
Yes, handled properly. We wet down plants and lawns before applying anything, keep the mix on the wall where it belongs, and rinse the gardens again once we are finished. That routine is built into every job. If you have something especially delicate below a wall, show us and we will cover or shield it.
On the job itself: the wall area, the height, the surface type and how heavy the growth is. Every quote is free and no obligation, and the price we give is the price you pay, with no extras added on the day. We are happy to quote from photos for straightforward jobs or come and look in person.
Less time than most people expect. The mix does much of the work, so a typical home is done in a few hours, and even larger jobs rarely run past a day. A good chunk of that time is dwell time, letting the mix break down the mould before we rinse. We confirm the timing when we quote.
Yes, that is its speciality. Black spot mould grows into the surface texture of render, and no amount of scrubbing or pressure shifts it properly. The soft wash mix breaks it down chemically so it rinses away, and because the spores are dead, it takes much longer to reappear.
Close windows and doors, bring in washing and anything hanging near the walls, and keep pets inside while we work. That is about it. We move light items away from the walls ourselves, wet down and rinse the gardens, and leave everything back where we found it.
Light rain is usually fine, since the surfaces are wet during the process anyway. Heavy rain dilutes the mix before it can do its work, so if a downpour is forecast we will call you and move the booking to the next suitable day at no charge.
Yes, it is the safest method for anything fragile. Older render, painted walls, weatherboard and ageing masonry cannot take high pressure without chipping, stripping or letting water in behind them, and that kind of damage cannot be undone. Soft washing uses low pressure and a cleaning solution instead, so it lifts the mould and grime gently and leaves the surface intact. We assess every surface on site and use the gentlest method that will do the job.

Couldn't be happier with the work done at our home in Frenchs Forest. Booked them for a full exterior clean including pressure washing the driveway and back patio, a soft wash on the rendered walls, and windows done throughout. The difference is night and day: the driveway looks brand new and the glass is spotless. Professional, takes real pride in the job, and the price was exactly what was quoted.
Oli and his colleague were very thorough and efficient. To be honest they removed some stains I thought would have to be painted over. They were both very polite and cleaned up after they had finished. I would highly recommend them.
Thank you Pristine Standard for an amazing job transforming our brick work. We couldn't be happier with the job. A very professional and friendly service. Highly recommended.
Oli and his team recently washed our house and paving. It has come up fantastically. We could not be more impressed with the job.
Our property has plenty of mature trees surrounding the house, porch and patio, so the gutters collect a significant amount of leaf litter. Nick arrived exactly at the agreed time, was professional and friendly throughout, and took before and after photos so we could clearly see the work completed. Their pricing was very competitive and we will definitely be using Pristine Standard again.
I couldn't be happier with the service from Pristine Standard. They were professional, punctual, and incredibly thorough. My windows look absolutely spotless. I didn't realise how much brighter my home could feel until they were done. The team was friendly, respectful of my property, and made sure everything was cleaned up perfectly before leaving.
Oliver did a fantastic job cleaning my windows. They have never looked better. They also took the time to remove the mould from the window sills, which had built up after all the recent rain. Professional, thorough, and great attention to detail. I will definitely be having my windows cleaned regularly from now on.
The Pristine Standard team just completed cleaning my second story windows and they look brand new again. The team are professional, polite and have pride in their work. We could not be happier with our clean streak free windows. Highly recommend, and please do support a local business.
What a great job these guys did. Gutters look brand new, eaves are white once more and I can see through the upstairs windows. Get these guys to your place, highly recommend this business.
The boys did a fantastic job. Our sandstone looks brand new again. Very happy.
Highly recommended! Prompt communication. Oli and the team turned up on time and did a great job of cleaning a very dirty driveway and paved area.
Ollie did a fantastic job cleaning our windows. Extremely polite, punctual and friendly. Moved our outdoor furniture back into place and left everything clean and tidy. Highly recommend.
Couldn't be happier. Windows, screens and tracks sparkling clean. They even took great care in not damaging my bushes and garden outside the windows. The water is demineralised so no streaks occur, leaving them clean longer.
Boys did an incredible job! Tackled some very tough stains on the window with a positive attitude. Great service, committed to doing the best job possible.
Ollie did a great job cleaning our windows, he is very polite and nothing was a problem, he even reached our highest windows with no issues. Highly recommend.
