Frequently Asked Questions
Is roof washing safe for my shingles?
Absolutely. We use the soft wash method recommended by the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA). High-pressure washing can damage shingles, which is why we never use it on roofs.
What causes those black streaks on my roof?
Those black streaks are caused by Gloeocapsa Magma, a type of algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. It spreads across your roof and can cause premature deterioration if left untreated.
How long will my roof stay clean?
Results typically last 3-5 years depending on your environment. Homes with heavy tree coverage or in humid areas may see algae return sooner. We can set up a maintenance schedule to keep your roof looking great.
Can you clean any type of roof?
Yes, we clean asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, tile, metal, and slate roofs. Each roof type requires a different approach, and we're trained to handle them all safely.
