Watch the mobile home soft wash.

The Problem

A shaded wall that never fully dried out.

Soft washing near Mountain View, AR often means one specific problem: a shaded, north-facing wall that never fully dries out. That was the case on this single-story mobile home, where the entire home's vinyl siding had not had a professional house washing in about two years.

North-facing walls are consistently the hardest-hit surface on many homes. Less direct sunlight means less natural drying time, and that extra moisture is exactly what algae and mildew need to take hold. On this home, the north wall carried the heaviest algae and mildew buildup, with visible buildup on the end walls as well.

Job Attributes

Property Type: Manufactured/mobile home, single-story
Surface Material: Vinyl siding
Service: Soft washing
Access: Gravel driveway, ground-level access
Foundation: Concrete block foundation

The Process

Low pressure, full siding coverage.

Abright soft washed the entire home's vinyl siding using a low-pressure method paired with a chemical mix designed to break down organic buildup and kill algae and mildew at the source, rather than simply blasting it off the surface the way pressure washing would.

This approach is especially important on vinyl siding, and even more so on manufactured homes, where panels can be thinner and more prone to damage from high-pressure equipment. The gravel driveway and ground-level access were accounted for during setup and equipment staging.

Our Recommendation

FAQ

Questions customers usually ask.

Does soft washing work for mobile homes?

Yes, soft washing is well suited to mobile and manufactured homes. This job was a single-story mobile home in Mountain View, AR, where low-pressure application was used specifically because manufactured-home vinyl panels can be thinner and more prone to damage from high-pressure equipment.

Can professional soft washing remove black algae streaks and mildew?

Yes, professional soft washing removes algae and mildew rather than just the surface dirt on top of it. On this job, the siding had roughly two years of algae and mildew buildup, and the chemical mix broke it down and killed it at the root instead of blasting it off the surface.

Why use soft washing instead of pressure washing on vinyl siding?

Pressure washing risks cracking or denting vinyl panels, and can force water underneath the interlocking vinyl pieces, trapping moisture behind the siding where it can cause hidden mold issues inside the walls. Soft washing relies on a low-pressure chemical mix instead of brute force, which eliminates that risk entirely.

Does soft washing include skirting or underpinning?

No, this job was scoped to the siding only and did not include the concrete block skirting or underpinning beneath the home. Skirting and underpinning cleaning can be evaluated separately depending on the property and job scope.

How often should siding be professionally soft washed?

We recommend professional soft washing every 12 months. This interval is based on how quickly buildup returns on shaded, moisture-prone surfaces like the north-facing wall on this job.

Is professional soft washing worth it?

For siding that has gone years without cleaning, professional soft washing restores the surface without the damage risk that comes with high-pressure equipment, which is why we recommend it over pressure washing for vinyl siding specifically.

Can soft washing be done at properties with gravel driveways?

Yes, gravel driveway access does not prevent soft washing. This job was completed at a property with a gravel driveway, and equipment staging was adjusted for that access condition.
