Complete Roof Cleaning Services

Everything Your Roof Needs

Our roof cleaning service covers everything that’s making your roof look old and worn. We remove algae stains, moss growth, lichen, and accumulated debris that regular rain can’t wash away.

We also clean your gutters as part of the process—because clean gutters are essential for proper roof drainage. Many Brighton homeowners don’t realize that clogged gutters contribute to roof problems by causing water to back up under shingles.

You get before and after photos documenting the transformation, plus specific recommendations for maintaining your newly cleaned roof. We use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are safe for your landscaping and family, but tough enough to eliminate years of buildup.

How often should I have my roof professionally cleaned?

Most Brighton, KY homes need professional roof cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific situation. Homes with lots of tree coverage or north-facing roof sections tend to develop algae and moss faster due to limited sunlight. If you’re seeing black streaks or green moss growth, it’s time for cleaning regardless of when you last had it done. Waiting too long means the algae roots deeper into your shingles, making removal more difficult and potentially damaging your roof materials.

Will pressure washing damage my roof shingles?

High-pressure washing absolutely can damage shingles, which is why we don’t use it. Our low-pressure roof washing system uses specialized cleaning solutions and gentle water pressure that removes algae and stains without harming your roofing materials. The cleaning solution does most of the work by killing algae at the root level, so we don’t need aggressive pressure. Many homeowners have damaged their roofs trying to pressure wash them with regular equipment, which is why professional roof cleaning exists as a separate service.

How long does the roof cleaning process take?

Most residential roof cleaning jobs in Brighton take 3-5 hours from start to finish, including setup and cleanup. Larger homes or roofs with heavy moss buildup may take longer. The actual cleaning time depends on your roof size and condition, but we work efficiently to minimize disruption to your day. Weather conditions also play a role—we won’t clean your roof in high winds or during rain for safety reasons. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we inspect your roof and can usually complete the job in a single day.

What's the difference between roof cleaning and roof replacement?

Roof cleaning addresses cosmetic and early-stage damage caused by algae, moss, and debris buildup. If your shingles are structurally sound but just stained or covered in growth, cleaning can restore them and extend their life significantly. Roof replacement becomes necessary when shingles are cracked, missing, or damaged beyond repair. Many Brighton homeowners are surprised to learn their “old” roof just needs a thorough cleaning. We’ll honestly assess whether cleaning will solve your problems or if you need to start planning for replacement.

Are your cleaning solutions safe for plants and pets?

Yes, we use eco-friendly cleaning solutions that break down safely and won’t harm your landscaping, pets, or family. We do take precautions by watering down plants before and after cleaning to dilute any runoff, but our solutions are specifically chosen to be effective against algae while remaining environmentally responsible. Many harsh chemicals can kill grass and plants, which is why we invest in professional-grade products that clean effectively without environmental damage. Your lawn and garden will be fine after our roof cleaning service.

How much does professional roof cleaning cost in Brighton?

Roof cleaning costs vary based on your roof size, pitch, and condition, but most Brighton homeowners pay significantly less than they expect—especially compared to roof replacement costs. We provide free estimates so you know exactly what to expect before we start work. The investment typically pays for itself through extended roof life and increased home value. When you consider that roof replacement can cost $15,000-30,000 or more, spending a fraction of that on professional cleaning every few years makes financial sense.
