Plus, low-pressure steam ICE DAM REMOVAL when you need it most! Insured & serving both residential & commercial clients in the FM & lakes area. What We Are: Formally established in 2022, All Out Pressure & Soft Washing is a locally owned, operated and insured business that provides high attention-to-detail cleaning by means of pressure washing and soft washing. We strive to provide the absolute be
st quality and customer service possible. What We Do: Most people are familiar with pressure washing, but besides concrete and masonry, pressure washing could actually cause damages. When it comes to concrete and masonry, pressure washing is still the best method, but we incorporate our soft washing chemicals alongside the pressure to help rid the root cause of mold/ algae growth. So, what is soft washing… Soft washing uses special low-pressure nozzles, spraying a biodegradable chemical that removes the biological elements (mold, algae, pollen, dirt, moss) and other stains without damaging surfaces on your home. This also tends to provide a barrier to new growth for upwards of 3 years! Soft washing also doesn’t void roofing or siding warranties and is the preferred method of cleaning by the Asphalt Roof Manufacturers Association. Some of the surfaces we offer cleaning for are:
Roofs
Siding
Fences (Wood & Vinyl)
Gutters
Driveways
Sidewalks
Patios
Decks
Landscaping/ Retaining Walls
RV's/ Campers
Dumpster Pads
Maybe more… Just Ask! ADDED in 2023: ICE DAM REMOVAL - Protect your property when ice starts building up on your roof! An ice dam is a ridge of ice that forms along the edge of a roof. It prevents melting snow (water) from properly draining off the roof. As a result, the trapped water can back up behind the dam and potentially seep into the home, causing damage.

How Does an Ice Dam Form? Ice dams are caused by uneven heating on the roof during winter:
1. Heat from inside the house rises and escapes through the roof, warming the upper sections.
2. Snow melts on the warmer part of the roof and flows down toward the cooler edges, which are above the unheated eaves.
3. At the colder edges, the water refreezes, forming a dam of ice.
4. As more snow melts, water collects behind the dam and cannot drain properly.

What Damage Can Ice Dams Cause?
1. Roof Damage: Water that backs up behind the dam can seep under shingles, loosening them and potentially causing leaks.
2. Interior Damage: Water can infiltrate ceilings, walls, and insulation, leading to stains, mold growth, and structural weakening.
3. Gutter and Eave Damage: The weight of ice can damage gutters and the edges of the roof.
4. Energy Loss: Poor insulation and ventilation, which contribute to ice dams, also result in heat loss and higher energy bills.
