What Is Soft Wash Roof Cleaning?
Soft wash roof cleaning is a gentle yet powerful method that uses low-pressure water combined with specialized, eco-friendly cleaning solutions. Unlike high-pressure washing, which can damage your roof, soft washing safely eliminates algae, mold, mildew, and other contaminants without harming your shingles or tiles.
How Does Soft Washing Work?
Instead of blasting away dirt, soft washing treats the root of the problem. I like to explain to our customers that we treat roof mold and like a pesticide, not with high pressure. We apply a biodegradable cleaning solution that soaks into the grime, breaking it down from the inside. This method effectively kills harmful organic growth like algae, moss, and bacteria. After the solution has time to work, we rinse it away with from the ground with fresh water imitating a heavy rain—leaving your roof spotless without the risk of damage.
Why Is Soft Washing Better for Your Roof?
High-pressure washing can strip away the protective granules on asphalt shingles, and remove the protective layer and glaze on barrel tile and metal roofs, which causes unnecessary wear and tear. Soft washing on the other hand, cleans your roof thoroughly without causing any damage. It’s safe for asphalt shingles, clay tiles, concrete tiles, metal roofs, and more. If you want a long-lasting clean that preserves your roof’s integrity, soft washing is the way to go.
Why Should You Soft Wash Your Roof?
If you’ve noticed black streaks on your roof, that’s likely Gloeocapsa magma—a type of algae that thrives in Florida’s hot and humid climate. Left untreated, it can deteriorate your roof and make your roof less energy efficient by absorbing heat instead of reflecting UV rays. Soft washing not only removes these harmful organisms but also extends your roof’s lifespan, saving you money on repairs and replacements.
