Professional roof algae or roof moss removal is handled in some ways. For metal or concrete roofs, pressure washing can be a good option. Professional roof cleaning contractors may spray pressurized water on the roof to remove your roof’s mold, algae, dirt or grime. For asphalt shingle roofs, your roof cleaning professionals may opt to use a cleaning solution or soft washing.

During your initial roof cleaning assessment, our experts can determine the best method for your particular roof.

Roof cleaning frequency can depend on the weather, and other environmental factors around you’re home. Damp weather and homes under trees are more likely to attract algae and grime, requiring more frequent cleanings. Tree shade will block sun exposure and keep the roof moist for algae to grow, while trees can pass on spread algae spores.

You should clean your roof if you notice anything growing on the shingles. Sometimes, roof moss or algae can be hard to see. Yearly inspection and cleaning by a professional will ensure your roof lives up to its estimated lifespan.

Usually, roof cleaning cost will depend on significant factors, such as the time it takes to clean the roof, the amount of moss and algae populating the roof, and the actual roof size.
