Our services are designed to protect roofing systems, preserve building envelopes, reduce exterior surface deterioration, and support long-term real estate asset protection.
We specialize in advanced low-pressure roof soft washing, preventative roof maintenance, roofing moss and algae removal, mold and mildew treatment, biological contamination remediation, detergent-based soft house washing, commercial exterior building cleaning, FAA Part 107-certified drone-based aerial façade and exterior window washing, reverse-osmosis/deionized (RO/DI) pure-water exterior window cleaning, professional pressure and power washing for concrete and hardscape surfaces, solar panel cleaning, and comprehensive exterior building maintenance cleaning and restoration solutions.
Unlike conventional pressure washing companies, Maxx ECO Wash focuses on roof preservation, biological roof treatment, building envelope protection, preventative asset management, and long-term exterior maintenance using advanced automated SoftWash Systems® technology. Our specialized low-pressure roofing and exterior cleaning treatment process is engineered to safely remove roof moss, roof algae, mold, mildew, lichen, fungi, bacteria, biofilm, atmospheric pollution, black roof streaks, organic staining, and other biological contaminants that contribute to moisture retention, biological decay of exterior surfaces, premature roof deterioration, exterior surface degradation, and long-term damage to roofing systems, exterior surfaces, architectural finishes, building envelopes, and other exterior building materials.

Why SoftWash Systems® Low-Pressure Roof Cleaning & Biological Treatment Is Different
Roof and exterior cleaning should do more than improve appearance—it should preserve, protect, and extend the service life of your roofing system and exterior building envelope.
At Maxx ECO Wash, we believe roof cleaning is an essential component of preventative building maintenance, not simply a cosmetic service. Our specialized SoftWash Systems® process is engineered to biologically treat organic contamination at its source while helping protect roofing materials, exterior building surfaces, and valuable real estate assets.
Unlike conventional pressure washing, which primarily relies on high water pressure to remove visible dirt and staining, the SoftWash Systems® process combines precision-calibrated automated detergent proportioning technology, biodegradable EPA-registered cleaning solutions, and controlled low-pressure application of approximately 40-80 PSI. This manufacturer-conscious approach safely eliminates biological contamination while significantly reducing the risk of unnecessary wear, surface erosion, or premature deterioration that can occur with improper high-pressure cleaning.
By treating contamination at the microbial level instead of simply washing away surface staining, SoftWash Systems® delivers longer-lasting results while helping preserve the integrity of roofs, siding, exterior finishes, and other architectural surfaces.
Advanced Automated SoftWash Systems® Technology
Maxx ECO Wash utilizes one of the most advanced automated exterior cleaning and roof treatment systems available within the building maintenance industry. Our proprietary SoftWash Systems® platform incorporates precision-calibrated automated detergent proportioning technology that continuously meters professional cleaning and biological treatment solutions at the proper concentration throughout every stage of application. Unlike conventional pressure washing equipment that relies on manual batch mixing or inconsistent downstream injection systems, our automated technology delivers repeatable, manufacturer-conscious cleaning performance and consistent biological treatment across every project.
Combined with low-pressure application at approximately 40-80 PSI, our cleaning process safely treats biological contamination at the microbial level while helping preserve roofing systems, exterior building materials, architectural finishes, and building envelopes without the surface damage commonly associated with traditional high-pressure or power washing. Our Advanced SoftWash Systems® Technology Provides:
-
Precision-controlled automated detergent proportioning technology
-
Continuously calibrated treatment concentrations optimized for each roofing material, exterior surface, and level of biological contamination
-
Low-pressure roof cleaning and biological treatment at approximately 80 PSI

-
Cleaning and biological treatment results that remain effective up to 4–6 times longer than conventional pressure washing by eliminating contamination at its source
-
Uses up to 66% less water than conventional pressure washing while providing superior biological remediation and sustainable exterior cleaning

Roof Biological Treatment—Treating the Cause, Not Just the Symptoms
Organic growth continues developing long before it becomes visible. Moss, algae, mold, mildew, fungi, lichen, bacteria, and biofilm retain moisture, accelerate deterioration, stain exterior surfaces, and gradually reduce the performance of roofing systems and exterior building materials.
Traditional high-pressure cleaning may temporarily improve appearance by removing visible staining; however, it does not necessarily eliminate the biological contamination responsible for continued growth.
The SoftWash Systems® process is specifically engineered to biologically treat contamination at the microbial level, helping slow future regrowth while preserving roofing systems, building envelopes, architectural finishes, and exterior surfaces. The result is a cleaner, healthier building exterior with significantly longer-lasting results than conventional pressure washing.
Roof Cleaning Before Solar Panel Installation in the San Francisco Bay Area
Installing solar panels is a long-term investment, and the roof beneath them should be properly cleaned, sanitized, and biologically treated before installation. Once panels are installed, many areas of the roof become difficult to access, allowing moss, algae, mold, mildew, lichen, bacteria, biofilm, and organic debris to remain trapped beneath or around the system.
Pre-installation roof cleaning helps prevent biological growth from continuing under the panels, where shade and moisture can contribute to staining, organic decay, premature deterioration, and long-term damage to roofing materials.
Maxx ECO Wash provides specialized low-pressure roof cleaning and biological treatment before solar panel installation to help prepare, protect, and preserve the roofing system while supporting the long-term performance of both the roof and the solar investment.
Preventative Roof Maintenance & Homeowners Insurance
Routine roof maintenance is one of the most cost-effective ways to preserve roofing systems, extend roof life, and maintain the overall condition of residential and commercial properties.
Many homeowners insurance providers require roofing systems to remain in good condition during underwriting reviews or policy renewals. Routine roof cleaning and biological treatment help remove organic contamination, improve the overall appearance of the roofing system, and demonstrate responsible preventative maintenance when documentation is requested.
HOA & Commercial Exterior Building Maintenance Programs
Maintaining commercial properties, HOA communities, apartment complexes, technology campuses, healthcare facilities, retail centers, municipal buildings, educational campuses, and industrial facilities requires more than occasional cleaning—it requires a comprehensive exterior building maintenance strategy focused on long-term asset preservation.
Maxx ECO Wash develops customized preventative maintenance programs designed to preserve building envelopes, protect exterior assets, reduce deferred maintenance, and maximize building lifecycle performance. Our customized maintenance programs include:
-
Scheduled roof cleaning and biological treatment

What is Soft Washing?
Soft Washing is the more Sustainable Alternative to traditional pressure cleaning. We implement exclusive ECO-Friendly, Water-based, and Biodegradable cleaning solutions. They emulsify dirt and grime, as well as remove and eliminate moss, mold, mildew, algae, fungus, bacteria, and other contaminants that may be present on the roof and exterior surface. Soft Washing utilizes only 1/3 the water of pressure washing, the treatment lasts 4x - 6x longer, and the delicate cleaning doesn’t erode or damage the surface like pressure and power washing often can.
