Asphalt Shingle Roof Cleaning
No-pressure soft wash that kills gloeocapsa magma — the algae behind black streaking — without dislodging a single granule from the shingle surface.

No-pressure roof treatment that removes black streaks
Professional Roof Cleaning
Those black streaks are gloeocapsa magma — a roof-eating algae that holds moisture against your shingles and shortens their life. We treat it with a no-pressure soft wash method approved by shingle manufacturers.
Tile, metal, and flat roofs get the same careful treatment with the mix and dwell time adjusted for the material. Nothing is scrubbed, walked on unnecessarily, or blasted.
Roof Types We Clean
Roofing material dictates the chemistry, the dwell time, and how the crew moves on the roof. Here's how we handle each type across the Houston area.
No-pressure soft wash that kills gloeocapsa magma — the algae behind black streaking — without dislodging a single granule from the shingle surface.
Clay and concrete tile hold moss and lichen in the valleys. We treat and rinse carefully, working off walk boards so tiles never crack underfoot.
Standing seam and R-panel roofs cleaned with a coating-safe mix that removes streaking and oxidation film without dulling the finish.
Commercial flat roofs get ponding stains and biological growth. We clean membrane surfaces gently and keep drains clear as part of the service.
The dark vertical streaking on north-facing slopes is living algae, not dirt. Treatment kills it at the root so it doesn't return in a few months.
Lichen roots into the shingle mat. We treat it and let it release naturally over the following weeks instead of scraping and damaging the roof.
Bundle & Save
Most homes need two or three services at once. Our residential packages combine them into a single scheduled visit at a better rate than booking each one alone.
House soft wash + driveway + windows handled in one visit instead of three trips.
Bundled homes get our best pricing versus booking each service on its own.
Quarterly, semi-annual or annual visits so your home never falls behind.
How It Works
We walk the property, measure the areas, note surface type and staining, and give you a flat written price for the roof cleaning — no guessing, no surprise add-ons.
Plants get pre-wet and rinsed, outlets and fixtures are covered, doors and windows checked, and pets and vehicles moved clear of the work zone.
Soft wash chemistry on delicate surfaces, hot water and surface cleaners on hard surfaces. Dwell time is what removes the growth — pressure alone just moves dirt around.
Everything gets a full rinse-down, then we walk the job with you. If anything was missed we handle it before the truck leaves.

They responded quickly, gave a reasonable quote and did the job in a timely fashion and to our satisfaction. They power washed the front of our stucco home and the driveway, sidewalks and curb.

Very conscientious work. I asked them to double back and hit a few windows again, and they did so without complaint. They spent much longer than anticipated because they wanted them to look great — and the results were great.

This company came to clean my gutters and we added gutter cover installation and power washing. It was done to full satisfaction and in a timely manner. Price was affordable. We will use them again.

Not when it's done correctly. High pressure does void warranties — that's why we use a no-pressure soft wash, which is the method shingle manufacturers recommend.
Typically three to five years in the Houston climate, depending on tree cover and how much shade the roof gets.
We pre-wet all landscaping, tarp sensitive beds when needed, and rinse thoroughly afterward.
