A to Z Softwash

A to Z Softwash is a Wareham-based exterior cleaning company that homeowners across the South Coast and Cape Cod hire for low-pressure roof washing, house washing, cedar restoration, decks and gutters. Its Google profile carries 5 stars from 135 ratings, and the written record runs from 2022 through August 2026 without a negative account in it. What customers describe is consistent and specific. A June 2025 reviewer with a cedar-shingle house that had gone gray and black had it soft washed and conditioned and said it looked like new shingles. A 2024 reviewer had the roof of a house and shed cleaned of black streaks and lichen on the premium package. A May 2025 reviewer watched the crew work for about five hours, one applying the cleaning mixture while another rinsed plants and windows with fresh water to protect them. A 2023 repeat customer had deck, house and gutters done and noted the technician disassembled a rusted umbrella stand that the homeowner could not manage alone. Communication is the thread that runs through the reviews more than any other. Customers name the office and crew — Jill, Zach, Christina, Matt, Wilbur — and describe quotes answered quickly, reminder texts before the appointment, instructions on how to prepare, and confirmed arrival times. Two accounts speak to how problems get handled: a June 2025 reviewer said the owner phoned about a minor issue during the cleaning that many companies would simply not have mentioned, and a 2023 repeat customer described a mishap on an earlier job that was handled professionally enough that they kept using the company. Price comes up in the customers' own words as fair or reasonable rather than cheap — a 2025 reviewer called it top-notch service at a fair price, a 2023 reviewer using them for years called it exceptional service at a very reasonable price, and a 2022 reviewer said the price was in line with other estimates and the choice came down to service. The one caution worth knowing comes from outside the review sites: a Wareham neighbour on Nextdoor in May 2025 recommended the company but noted that this kind of soft-wash treatment "takes months to work" before the results appear. Ask what the timeline looks like for your roof so the finished result is not a surprise. For a homeowner on the South Coast or the Cape who wants roof algae, lichen or a weathered cedar exterior dealt with by a small crew that communicates, this is one of the better-documented records in the trade locally. Confirm scheduling well ahead in the summer season, and ask about plant protection if you have foundation plantings — several reviewers singled that out as something the crew handled carefully.
