Pressure Washing Project Completed at the Old Bag Factory
Kenneth Miller of Miller Soft Wash was hired by the new owners of the Old Bag Factory in Goshen, Indiana to restore the entry area, correct water-flow issues, and clean a roof system that had started to create leak concerns. This is a real-world example of disciplined exterior cleaning: surface-specific pressure, controlled rinsing, and maintenance moves that protect the structure.
The Old Bag Factory sits at 1100 Chicago Ave, Goshen, IN and it’s a community landmark. This job combined safety repairs, deep cleaning, roof washing, and gutter clearing so ownership could move forward with confidence and keep the property looking cared for.
Why This Bag Factory Project Matters for Pressure Washing in Goshen
When new ownership took over, the exterior needed more than “make it wet and leave.” The entry steps were worn, organic growth was embedded into surfaces, and the roof + drainage system needed attention to stop water from hanging around where it doesn’t belong.

Step-by-Step: How the Old Bag Factory Exterior Was Restored
Historic buildings don’t get one-size-fits-all treatment. The approach here focused on safety first, then surface-appropriate cleaning, then drainage and roof details that prevent repeat problems. Everything is built around real contaminants, real materials, and real outcomes.
Repair the Entry Steps Before Washing
Weak boards get replaced first. Washing damaged wood can turn a problem into a failure. Repair-first keeps the entry safe and sets up the cleaning stage to be effective instead of destructive.
Controlled Pressure Washing for Traction and Appearance
Organic growth on wood steps is a slip hazard. The wash focused on removing algae and embedded grime without shredding the grain. Clean is good — clean and intact is the standard.
Roof Wash + Inspection to Expose Leak Points
Built-up debris hides problems. Cleaning the roof surface and drainage paths exposes where water sits, where seams are tired, and where leak patching needs to happen.
Gutter Clearing to Restore Water Flow
Roof runoff is only “handled” if the gutters can move it. Clearing sludge and debris reduces overflow, reduces edge saturation, and lowers the risk of water backing into places it doesn’t belong.
Rubber Roof Wash + Leak Patching Where Needed
The rubber roof footprint is large, and small failures become expensive if ignored. After cleaning, weak points and seam issues are easier to identify and address with targeted patching.
This project sits alongside other proof pages inside the same pressure-washing supporting content cluster, including the Oasis exterior cleaning project and the Blue Gate Hotel exterior washing project.
