Roof Cleaning in Houston, TX
A low pressure soft wash that clears black streaks and algae without ever walking hard on your shingles.
.01 · Overview
Those black streaks are alive. We treat the cause, not just the look.
The dark streaks on Houston roofs are a hardy algae that feeds on shingle material and spreads fast in our humidity. High pressure would tear up the granules that protect your roof, so we never use it. Instead we apply a soft wash treatment that kills the algae and lets it wash away over time.
The result is an even, restored roof and a treatment that reaches the root, so it stays clean far longer than a quick blast ever could. It is gentle on shingles, gutters and landscaping alike.
.02 · Houston conditions
Why Houston roofs streak and stain.
Those dark streaks on Gulf Coast roofs are a living algae that spreads in warm, humid weather. Left alone it holds moisture against shingles and heats the roof surface. A low pressure soft wash treats the growth at the root so the roof looks clean for years, with no pressure blasting that could strip granules.

Common questions.
Is soft washing safe for my roof?
Yes. Soft washing is the method recommended for asphalt shingles because it cleans with detergent at low pressure. High pressure strips protective granules and shortens a roof's life, so we never use it on roofs.
How long will the results last?
Because a soft wash kills the algae rather than just rinsing the surface, results typically last far longer than pressure washing, often a year or more depending on shade and humidity.
What causes the black streaks on my roof?
They are a blue green algae that thrives in warm, humid climates like Houston. It feeds on the filler in shingles and slowly spreads across the roof over time.
Do you clean tile and metal roofs?
Yes. We adjust the soft wash approach for tile, metal and other roofing materials. Let us know your roof type when you request a quote.
