Soft Wash in Naples, FL by Naples Premier Pavers Protection. Low pressure cleaning with the right chemical mix for screen cages, lanais and surfaces a pressure washer would damage.
What you are actually buying
A pool cage screen or a soft lanai ceiling cannot take what a paver surface can. High pressure tears mesh, strips paint, and can crack soft stucco or old mortar joints. In Naples, where mold and mildew grow fast in the humidity, that leaves homeowners stuck choosing between letting buildup sit or risking damage with the wrong equipment.
Soft washing solves that by using low pressure paired with a cleaning solution that actually kills mold and mildew at the root instead of just blasting the visible layer off the surface. That matters because scrubbing or blasting mold without treating it tends to leave it coming back within weeks, especially on screens and shaded lanai areas that stay damp.
We treat the frame, screen mesh, lanai walls and ceiling with a solution suited to each surface, let it sit long enough to do its job, then rinse at low pressure. The result is a clean cage and lanai without torn screens, stripped paint, or hairline cracks that show up months later from a wash done with too much force.
What the job includes
- Inspection of screens, frame and lanai surfaces before cleaning
- Application of a mold and mildew treatment suited to the material
- Adequate dwell time so the treatment actually kills growth at the root
- Low pressure rinse that will not tear screen mesh or strip finishes
- Attention to pool cage frame and lanai ceiling, not just visible screens
- Check for existing screen damage before and after cleaning

Questions about soft wash
Is soft washing safe for screen enclosures?
Yes, that is exactly why low pressure and the right chemical mix are used instead of a standard pressure washer. Screens and their frames are not built to handle high pressure and tear or bend easily under it.
How often does a lanai need soft washing in Naples?
Humidity here keeps mold and mildew growing steadily, so shaded and enclosed lanai areas tend to need attention more often than open surfaces. It depends on your specific setup, sun exposure and how enclosed the space is.
Does soft washing remove yellowing on old screens?
It removes mold, mildew and grime buildup that contributes to discoloration, but screens that have yellowed from age and UV exposure over years will not go back to looking brand new. It does noticeably improve most buildup related staining.
Can soft washing be done at the same time as pressure washing the pavers?
Yes, they are different processes for different surfaces, so it makes sense to have the pavers pressure washed and the lanai or screens soft washed in the same visit.
How long does paver sealing last?
Two coats of Cobble Loc over clean, re-sanded pavers gives up to five years of protection. Sun, rain and how much traffic the surface takes all move that number, so we tell you where yours stands when we look at it.
Do you re-sand the joints or just seal over them?
We re-sand. The joints get color matched Trident sand set with the wet sanding method before any sealer goes down. Sealing over empty or dirty joints is why pavers shift and weeds come back.
