Those black streaks on your roof are a living organism — an algae that feeds on your shingles' limestone filler and spreads every wet season. Pressure washing a roof blasts granules off shingles, cracks tile, and voids manufacturer warranties. That's why we never put pressure on a roof. Soft washing applies the treatment roofing manufacturers themselves specify, at no more force than rainfall, and kills the growth at the root.

Our Process
How We Clean a Roof Without Pressure
1
Roof & Property Assessment
Roof type, age, and condition checked first — tile, shingle, and metal each get a matched treatment plan. Gutters, skylights, and solar are noted before anything is applied.
2
Landscaping & Runoff Protected
Plants and beds below the roofline are pre-wet, covered where needed, and rinsed continuously. Downspout runoff is managed the entire time.
3
Manufacturer-Approved Soft Wash
The treatment is applied at rainfall-level pressure and left to work. Black streaks, algae, moss, and lichen die at the root — no granule loss, no cracked tile, no voided warranty.
4
Documented Results
Before/after photos on every roof. Heavier organic staining continues to rinse clean with rainfall over the following weeks — we explain exactly what to expect on your specific roof.
