About roof cleaning

Dark streaks on asphalt shingles are usually a type of algae that feeds on the limestone filler in the shingles. High pressure strips the protective granules and shortens the life of the roof, so roofs are cleaned with a soft wash instead: a cleaning solution applied at low pressure, left to work, then rinsed.

If your roof also has thick moss, tell us in the quote form. Moss can take a second treatment and some time to release.

How the job goes

  • Check the roof from the ground

    We look at the shingles, slope and access before anything goes on.

  • Soft wash at low pressure

    The solution is applied gently so the shingle granules stay in place.

  • Rinse and protect

    Gutters, siding and plants below the roofline get rinsed so nothing is left on them.

Roof cleaning questions

Anything else, ask in the quote form and we'll answer by email.

Can a roof be pressure washed instead?

High pressure knocks the granules off asphalt shingles, and those granules are what protect the roof from the sun.

How long do results last?

It varies with shade and moisture. Roofs under trees or near the water tend to streak again sooner.
