Why your roof needs cleaning

Those dark streaks aren't just dirt — they're living organisms that damage your roof over time.

Black streaks (Gloeocapsa magma)

Algae that feeds on limestone in your shingles. Spreads fast in our humid SC climate.

Green algae & moss

Traps moisture under shingles, leading to rot, leaks, and premature replacement.

Lichen

A stubborn combo of algae and fungus that bonds to shingle granules and is hard to remove once established.

Reduced curb appeal

A dirty roof makes your entire home look neglected — even if everything else is clean.

Higher energy bills

Dark algae absorbs more heat, making your attic hotter and your AC work harder.

Shortened roof life

Left untreated, organic growth can cut years off your roof's lifespan and void warranties.

How it works

A safe, proven 4-step process — no walking on your roof, no high pressure.

1

Ground-level inspection

We assess the roof from the ground and identify algae coverage, black streaks, moss, and any areas of concern.

2

Protect landscaping

Plants, flower beds, and outdoor furniture near the roofline are covered and pre-wetted before we apply any solution.

3

Apply soft wash solution

A low-pressure application of sodium hypochlorite and surfactant kills algae, mold, and moss at the root — no high pressure on your shingles.

4

Dwell & natural rinse

The solution dwells and breaks down organic growth. Rain naturally rinses the residue over the following days, leaving a clean roof.

Roof washing FAQ

Will soft washing damage my shingles?

No. Soft washing uses low pressure — about the same as a garden hose. It's the method recommended by shingle manufacturers like GAF and CertainTeed.

What are those black streaks on my roof?

They're caused by Gloeocapsa magma, a type of algae that feeds on the limestone filler in shingles. It's cosmetic at first but can shorten roof life if left untreated.

How long does a roof wash take?

Most roofs take 1–2 hours depending on size and pitch. We handle everything from the ground or low ladders — no walking on your shingles.

How often should I have my roof washed?

Every 2–3 years in the Rock Hill area. Roofs with heavy shade or north-facing slopes may need it more often.

Will the results be immediate?

You'll see a dramatic difference right away. Some residual algae may continue to wash away with rain over the next few weeks, making it look even better.
