Soft Washing Flagstone the Right Way

Flagstone is one of those surfaces that looks incredible when it's clean - but it's also one of the easiest to damage if you clean it the wrong way. High pressure can erode the surface, blow out the jointing material between stones, and leave you with a bigger problem than you started with. That's exactly why we soft wash flagstone instead of blasting it.

Soft washing uses low pressure combined with the right cleaning solution to break down algae, grime, and buildup at the source. The result is a clean surface without any of the risk that comes with cranking up the PSI. It takes more care and the right know-how, but the finish speaks for itself.

Flagstone that's been sitting outside for any length of time tends to collect organic growth - that green, slippery film that builds up in the joints and across the face of the stone. It doesn't just look bad. It's a slip hazard, and it slowly degrades the surface over time if it's left to sit.

We take the approach of doing it right the first time. No shortcuts, no unnecessary force. Just a method that's matched to the material. That's what gets you a clean, refreshed surface that doesn't look like it just got put through a car wash.

If your stone is looking weathered, discolored, or a little too slick underfoot, soft washing is almost always the right call. It's one of those services where the process matters just as much as the result - and we've got both dialed in.
