Those black streaks on your roof are algae, and they're eating at it. We remove them with a gentle soft wash that's safe on shingle, metal and tile alike.
The dark streaks running down so many East Texas roofs are usually Gloeocapsa magma, a type of algae. On asphalt shingles it feeds on the limestone filler; on metal panels and tile it takes hold anywhere shade and damp let it. Left alone, it holds moisture, speeds up wear and makes a good roof look old.
Pressure washing a roof can knock granules off shingles, strip the finish from painted metal, crack or dislodge tile and drive water past panels and flashing. Manufacturers recommend a low-pressure chemical cleaning instead. Our soft wash kills the algae and lichen, and the streaks keep fading as the weather rinses them away.

We protect plants and fixtures, then clean with the right pressure and solution for the surface.
We rinse thoroughly, clean up, and look over the finished job with you.
Low pressure means no blasted granules, no stripped finish, no cracked tile and no voided-warranty worries.
A clean roof is the fastest way to make a whole house look newer.
Removing moisture-holding growth helps your shingles last.
No. We don't use high pressure on roofs of any kind. The cleaning solution does the work, and we rinse gently.
Yes. Metal, painted panels and concrete or clay tile all soft wash well. Low pressure protects the finish and the seals around fasteners and flashing, and it avoids the cracked tile that comes from walking or blasting a tile roof.
It depends on shade and moisture, but a soft-washed roof typically stays clean for years, much longer than a pressure-washed one.
Some staining keeps fading over the next few rains as the dead algae washes away. That's normal.
We keep foot traffic to a minimum and work from ladders and the ground whenever we can.
