Overview
What Roof Washing Actually Involves
Those dark streaks are a hardy algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. It holds moisture against the roof and lifts granules over time. Soft washing kills the growth so the staining fades and the shingles are left intact.
We never put pressure on a roof. Solution is applied, given time to work, and rinsed gently, then gutters and landscaping are flushed. Where moss has taken root in valleys or on the north slope, we treat rather than scrape.

Why It Matters
Benefits of Roof Washing
Shingles Last Longer
Algae and moss hold water against the roof deck. Removing them is one of the cheapest ways to protect the shingle life you paid for.
The Streaks Actually Fade
Because we kill the organism rather than rinse it, staining lightens over the following weeks instead of returning by next season.
No Pressure, No Granule Loss
Pressure washing a shingle roof strips granules and voids warranties. Soft washing is the method manufacturers recommend.
Better From The Street
A streaked roof makes an otherwise tidy house look neglected. Cleaning it changes the whole look of the property.
