Save your roof and your money! Your roof may still have years of life left in it; all it needs to be safely restored to its original beauty is soft washing.

What Causes Those Black Streaks?

The black or brown discoloration seen on many roofs that is frequently mistaken for dirt or soot is in fact a species of algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. This algae is transferred through the air and collects on the exterior surfaces of your home, including your roof, where it feeds and grows.

In addition to creating unsightly black streaks, these algae also consume the limestone filler in shingles. This can cause significant damage and wear and tear to your roof.

Your roof isn't simply stained -- it's infected!

Reasons to Soft Wash Your Roof

For many years, pressure or power washing has been the go-to for homeowners wanting to clean their roofs, however, they often find that their black streaks return. This is because they're not resolving the root of the problem.

Only the surface layer of mold, mildew, algae and bacteria can be removed from your roof with power washing. The discoloration may disappear for the time being, but without getting rid of the algae completely, the stains frequently return due to regrowth within six months.

The SoftWash System we utilize completely cleans your roof and eliminates stain-causing microorganisms by killing 100% of these pests. Soft washing your roof lasts 4 to 6 times longer than conventional power washing. There's no algae regrowth – only new growth.
