HERE’S WHAT SEPARATES UPWARD PROWASH FROM THE COMPETITION:
Upward Prowash offers Soft Wash House Washing, also known as low pressure cleaning or low pressure washing, is a term used to describe a safe and effective process used by professional pressure washing companies for cleaning a variety of exterior surfaces on buildings and homes. Basically, it’s a process of gently applying cleansing solutions on a surface with low pressure, then gently rinsing the dirt and grime away with fresh water.
Soft Wash cleaning has found exclusive use by the best professional pressure washing companies for many reasons. Considering all of the variables involved with pressure washing a home’s exterior, the use of high pressure for cleaning a home poses little to no benefit versus cleaning with low pressure.
We’ve all seen the damage pressure cleaning with high pressure has caused to window screens, siding, decks and exterior lighting. While only providing minimal results, there is also the added risk of property damage when using high pressure to clean. Soft washing eliminates that potential for damage. How about climbing a ladder or scaling a roof only to pull the trigger on a high pressure wand, shooting water forward and potentially have whoever is holding it being pushed backwards? That’s a liability nobody would look forward to being a part of. Soft washing takes that liability out of the equation.With the low pressure soft washing method, your home’s exterior truly ends up cleaner, offering a healthier space to spend time in. It’s literally disinfected! High pressure only removes the surface dirt, mildew, mold and algae, leaving those grimy spores deep in the surfaces. Using properly developed, eco friendly soaps containing algaecides, surfactants and rinsing agents, soft washing completely disinfects and loosens those unsightly stains, while clean water rinses them away completely. You will notice a longer lasting clean, whereas those living bacteria have to begin the process of recurring again from scratch.
Upward Prowash can rid you of your ugly roof problem in Madison, Estill, and surrounding counties. The process we use when cleaning all types of roofing materials including asphalt shingles, slate tiles, cedar shake, metal and tile roofs, is called Soft Washing. The Soft Wash process utilizes a low pressure cleaning solution application which will remove the black streaks, algae, lichen and moss from your roof. The Soft Wash cleaning process is the only roof cleaning technique for cleaning asphalt shingled roofs recommended Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association.
Why clean your roof?
Your ugly shingles are doing more than making your home the neighborhood eyesore. The black streaks that you see on your roof are caused by algae growth. This algae growth is actually eating away at your home’s roof, deteriorating the shingle and is also causing the loosening of the protective granules. This deterioration process will shorten your roof’s lifespan by about 30%. In addition to the deterioration caused by the algae growth, a roof with black streaks will not heat evenly causing hot pockets of air in your home’s attic space. These hot pockets of air cause your home’s heating and cooling system to work harder and less efficiently when being used due to inconsistent air temperatures.
Add instant curb appeal to your home with a Soft Wash roof cleaning. Our low pressure soft washing process produces instant results. You will see your roof’s ugly appearance change almost immediately and at a small fraction of the cost of replacement. Considering selling your home? Having a dirty roof cleaned prior to putting a home on the market will help increase the resale value of a home by adding instant curb appeal. Call or Text today at 859-302-6380
Concrete Cleaning your surfaces should be cleaned on a regular basis. Our Concrete Cleaning service will keep your concrete surfaces not only looking new, but also safe and help to prevent slip and fall accidents.
When Mold and Mildew is allowed to build up, and then it get’s wet from a rain, morning dew, sprinkler systems, etc, then the surface becomes very slippery and can cause someone to slip and fall and injure themselves. When gum is allowed to build up, it can become very unsightly and makes removal harder and more time consuming. Spilled drinks, grease buildup, and other things can also cause concrete surfaces to be unsafe and unsightly.
We use professional grade equipment for our concrete cleaning services. Having the ability to heat our water on site allows us to remove gum easily, and cut through grease and grime build up. Concrete Cleaning is not a job that can just be done with a store bought pressure washer. These can cause damage in the hands of the untrained, and often times,damage that can not be repaired.
For large concrete cleaning we use surface cleaners so that a more uniform and consistent cleaning can be provided. Once done, all the concrete looks the same, and you won’t see the tiger stripes that are caused by someone using a wand.
What Makes Our Deck Power Washing Process Different?
Although it might sound silly – hiring a professional technician that has been trained to pressure wash decks is important to the cleaning process. Unlike some other external surfaces around your property, cleaning your deck properly requires a lot more technical knowledge. If done wrong, the damage could be permanent. By using the correct water pressure, high GPM professional machine and detergent to remove the dirt, mold and algae build-up will lay the foundation for the next steps. If done incorrectly you will see streaks and water marks due to using the wrong water pressure and detergent. Many times we see that the deck surface has been damaged heavily due to improper technique and high pressure.
Once your deck has been properly cleaned we apply a deck brighter to remove any tanning or rust stains and to it balance the pH before applying the stain. The deck will then need to dry so it can be treated with a sealer or stain to bring back and hold its natural beauty. It typically takes 1-2 days to dry in warm, dry conditions.
There are many producers of wood sealers in a variety of colors. Our technician can assist you in picking a color. Adding color adds additional protection as color helps block the UV light damage which can dull your deck.
Clogged gutters can cause damage to your home and getting up on a ladder or walking on your roof to clean out your gutters can be very dangerous.

Once we have removed the debris from your gutters, our gutter cleaning technicians will that all the downspouts are clear and ensure good flow.
