Roof Cleaning in DFW

A no-pressure soft wash — the only method a shingle manufacturer will stand behind.

Those black streaks running down an asphalt roof are gloeocapsa magma, an algae that feeds on the limestone filler in the shingle. Left alone it holds moisture against the roof and shortens its life. Pressure washed, it takes the protective granules with it and shortens that life far more.

We apply a cleaning solution at garden-hose pressure, let it work, and rinse. Nothing scrubs, nothing is walked on more than it has to be, and the roof is not the thing keeping you awake afterwards.

This is the service where the wrong contractor costs the most. A pressure-washed roof can look excellent for a fortnight and lose years off its warranty in the process.

Results That Last

Cleaning that removes buildup rather than moving it, so the property still looks right weeks later.

Questions

Roof Cleaning — what people ask

Will cleaning my roof void the shingle warranty?
Pressure washing one can. Soft washing is the method shingle manufacturers and the roofing industry association actually endorse, because it uses no mechanical force on the granules. We only clean roofs the soft-wash way, including when asked to do otherwise.
What are the black streaks on my roof?
An algae called gloeocapsa magma that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. It holds moisture against the roof, which shortens its life, so it is worth removing for reasons beyond how it looks.
How long does roof cleaning last?
Commonly three to five years, depending on shade, tree cover and how much of the roof stays damp. Roofs under heavy canopy come back sooner.
Do you walk on the roof?
As little as possible. Most of the work is done from ladders and the ground with extended reach. Every step on a hot asphalt roof costs granules, so staying off it is part of doing the job properly.
