Vortex Pro Wash:

Vortex Pro Wash prevents damage to your investment with a soft wash. NO cracked siding, NO peeled paint, and NO broken window seals. What Is Soft Washing? Soft washing is a term that is becoming much more commonly used in the pressure washing and roof cleaning industries. It simply means to clean a given exterior using a much softer amount of pressure than most would traditionally associate with a pressure washing company. In fact, most of the exterior cleaning services performed by today’s professionals would fall under the soft washing umbrella. The reason that the term pressure washing is still so widely used has more to do with its industry term recognition than anything. The definition of soft washing is to clean an exterior using 400 psi or less. You can trust them on your property and with your property. Vortex Pro Wash, exceptional service, in a professional manner and at a fair price.
