Softwash Service in Ocean, NJ by Green Sun Energy Services.
Stevie from Ocean, NJ has been a Green Sun Energy Services client since June of 2025. The call came at the end of June and the crew was there in late July for a single day of soft washing, using a Jomax solution rather than pressure to do the work. That distinction is the whole method: the chemistry lifts the algae and the rinse is gentle, so nothing is forced behind the siding and no granules come off the roof. Ocean is in Monmouth County, a mile in from the water.

John came to clean our siding, papers, and sidewalk. Our home looks beautiful! John was amazing. We only hope he can return next year! Thank you for your hard work and talent.
Green Sun Energy Services replied
Thank you, Stevie, and we will make sure John hears it. Soft washing siding, pavers and a sidewalk in Ocean is low-pressure work: the solution lifts the growth and the rinse carries it away, which is why the finish lasts. We would be glad to be back next year.
Exterior cleaning questions from Ocean homeowners
How often should a house in Ocean be soft washed?
There is no required interval. Many homes benefit from cleaning every few years, or whenever visible growth starts to come back. A heavily shaded property near the water may want attention sooner than an open, sunny one. Condition is a better guide than the calendar.
Can natural stone be cleaned safely?
Often, but natural stone varies enormously. Limestone, sandstone, granite and manufactured stone do not all respond the same way to cleaning chemicals, and softer or deteriorated stone and mortar can erode under excessive pressure. Identifying the actual material comes before choosing the method.
What are the green stains on vinyl siding?
They are frequently algae or other moisture-related biological growth, although not every green discoloration is identical. Shade, humidity and vegetation make growth more common. Soft washing treats the contamination without requiring aggressive pressure.
