Houston homes feature a wide variety of roofing materials, and each requires a tailored cleaning approach. Here's how our professional roof cleaning team handles each type.
Asphalt Shingles
The most common roof type in Houston. We use soft wash chemicals to kill algae and moss without disturbing the granule layer. Results appear over 2–4 weeks as rain washes away dead organisms.
Tile Roofs (Clay & Concrete)
Tile roofs are durable but porous. We use slightly higher volume (still low pressure) to clean between tiles and remove moss growth from grout lines.
Metal Roofs
Metal roofs collect oxidation, pollen, and mildew. We use metal-safe cleaning solutions and soft wash techniques to restore shine without scratching the finish.
Flat/Commercial Roofs
Commercial flat roofs accumulate standing water, debris, and algae. We clean these surfaces as part of our commercial cleaning services.
Cedar Shake
Cedar requires the gentlest approach — ultra-low pressure with wood-specific treatments that clean without stripping natural oils.
No matter your roof type, GreaseKleen has the experience and equipment to clean it safely. Get your free estimate.
