Holmdel NJ Commercial Cleaning: Soft Wash Roof Restoration, Bluestone Revival & Exterior Detailing

In Holmdel, New Jersey, presentation matters, especially for high-value properties and commercial businesses. Above & Beyond Softwash recently completed a major commercial soft wash restoration for a local Funeral Home that shows why soft washing is the safe choice for roofs, bluestone, and delicate exterior surfaces.

The property included an asphalt shingle roof, two-story vinyl siding, a rear bluestone patio, concrete walkways, a pool deck, vinyl fencing, and an elevated fiberglass balcony. The north-facing roof had extensive black mold, patches of moss, and the siding was coated with algae. Black lichen had taken hold in the bluestone and concrete, leaving the patio dark and slippery.

We approached the job with a surgical soft wash protocol rather than high pressure, because blasting those surfaces would have caused damage. For the roof we used a low-pressure soft wash to treat the Gloeocapsa magma black stains. The black streaks vanished on the day of cleaning, while moss and lichen were treated chemically so they turn white and detach safely over time, preserving the shingles and the roof warranty.

To protect the landscaping and meet commercial standards, we bagged every downspout to catch residual runoff and applied a specialized plant protect neutralizer to saturated areas, keeping beds and shrubs safe. Those steps are part of our standard soft wash roof protection for Holmdel properties.

The standout transformation was the rear bluestone patio. Bluestone is porous and will darken as mold and lichen settle into the pores. High pressure would etch and ruin the stone, so we applied a specialized soft wash treatment that lifts the mold from the pores without scratching the surface. The patio's natural blue-grey tones returned, giving the area a like-new look without any surface damage.

We also soft washed the two-story vinyl siding with a soap-based solution that kills algae spores rather than forcing them off with pressure. The concrete walkways and pool deck received treatments to remove slick black biofilm, improving safety by reducing slip hazards. The elevated fiberglass balcony, Adirondack chairs, white vinyl fencing around the pool, and the main sign were all restored so the business looked impeccable from the road.

This project reflects our owner-operated, expert-executed standard, with no crews of rookies, and a focus on commercial reliability. The Funeral Home owner noted we finished 24 hours ahead of schedule, saying, "Promised a finish date and came in 24 hours sooner. Great experience!"

If you own a business or home in Holmdel, NJ, understand that high pressure is often the enemy. It can strip roof granules, damage vinyl, scar concrete, and ruin mortar. A professional soft wash kills mold and moss at the root, letting the dead organic matter wash away safely over time, and helping avoid premature replacements.
