Roof Soft Washing
We safely remove algae and black streaks without high pressure. This protects your shingles and helps your roof last longer.
Roof Soft Washing: What to Expect
Your roof takes more abuse from South Florida's climate than almost any other surface on your property. Humidity, shade, and rain feed the algae, lichen, and black streaking (usually a bacteria called Gloeocapsa magma) that build up on shingles and tiles over time. Left alone, that buildup doesn't just look bad — it holds moisture against your roofing material and shortens its life.
Our Approach
We soft wash every roof we clean, never pressure wash. High-pressure equipment can crack tiles, strip shingle granules, and force water under flashing, which is how roofs get damaged during a cleaning that was supposed to help them. Soft washing uses low pressure with a biodegradable, algae-killing solution that breaks down buildup at the root and rinses it away safely, protecting shingles, tile, and metal roofing alike.
