Roof Washing Process

How We Clean Your Roof Right

First, we inspect your roof to identify problem areas and check for any existing damage. We protect your landscaping, gutters, and surrounding areas before we start.

Our roof cleaning process uses specialized low-pressure equipment and professional-grade cleaning solutions. We don’t blast your shingles with high pressure like some companies do. Instead, we apply the right cleaning agents and let them do the work, then rinse everything clean.

The algae, moss, and stains come off completely. Your roof is clean, and your shingles are intact. We clean up everything before we leave, and you’re left with a roof that looks years younger.

What You Get With Every Job

Every roof cleaning includes a thorough inspection, complete algae and moss removal, and careful attention to gutters and downspouts. We handle the entire exterior cleaning process from start to finish.

You get professional equipment designed specifically for roof cleaning – not borrowed pressure washers or improvised solutions. Our cleaning agents are formulated to kill organic growth at the root level, not just make it look clean temporarily.

Board Tree’s climate means your roof faces specific challenges. Heavy humidity in summer, freeze-thaw cycles in winter, and plenty of organic matter from surrounding trees. We’ve cleaned hundreds of roofs in these exact conditions, and we know what works.

How often should I have my roof cleaned in Kentucky?

Most Kentucky roofs need professional cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific situation. Homes with lots of tree coverage or north-facing slopes might need attention sooner because these areas stay damp longer and encourage algae growth. If you’re seeing black streaks, green moss, or your roof looks darker than it used to, it’s time for cleaning. Waiting too long means the organic growth gets deeper into your shingles, making the cleaning process more intensive and potentially requiring more frequent treatments.

Will roof cleaning damage my shingles or void my warranty?

Professional roof cleaning done correctly won’t damage your shingles or void your warranty. The key is using the right pressure and cleaning agents. We use low-pressure techniques specifically designed for asphalt shingles – nothing that will strip granules or cause premature aging. High-pressure washing is what damages roofs, not proper cleaning. In fact, most shingle manufacturers recommend regular cleaning to maintain warranty coverage. Letting algae and moss build up is what actually voids warranties because organic growth causes real structural damage over time.

How long does the roof cleaning process take?

Most residential roof cleaning jobs take 3-6 hours depending on the size of your roof and how much buildup we’re dealing with. Heavily affected roofs or larger homes might take a full day. We don’t rush the process because doing it right the first time saves you money long-term. The actual cleaning happens relatively quickly, but we spend time on preparation – protecting your property, setting up equipment properly, and doing a thorough final inspection. You can be home during the process, but we recommend staying inside while we’re applying cleaning solutions.

What's the difference between roof cleaning and pressure washing?

Roof cleaning uses specialized low-pressure equipment and professional cleaning agents designed specifically for roofs. Pressure washing uses high-pressure water that can strip granules off shingles, force water under shingles, and cause expensive damage. Many homeowners think they’re the same thing, but they’re completely different processes. Roof cleaning is about applying the right chemicals to kill organic growth, then rinsing gently. Pressure washing is about blasting everything with water. One protects your roof while cleaning it, the other can destroy it while making it look temporarily clean.

How much does professional roof cleaning cost in Board Tree?

Roof cleaning costs vary based on your roof size, pitch, and how much organic growth we’re removing. Most homeowners in Board Tree spend between $300-800 for professional roof cleaning. Larger homes or roofs with heavy moss buildup cost more because they require more time and materials. The investment makes sense when you consider that replacing a roof costs $15,000-30,000, and proper cleaning can extend your roof’s life by years. We provide upfront pricing after seeing your specific situation – no surprises or hidden fees after we start the work.

Can I clean my own roof instead of hiring professionals?

You can attempt DIY roof cleaning, but it’s not recommended for several reasons. First, it’s dangerous – roofs are slippery, especially when wet, and falls cause serious injuries every year. Second, most homeowners don’t have the right equipment or cleaning agents. Using the wrong pressure or chemicals can damage your shingles and cost thousands in repairs. Third, effective roof cleaning requires experience to identify problem areas and treat them properly. We have the safety equipment, insurance coverage, and expertise to do the job right the first time without risking injury or property damage.
