What Clean Roofs Actually Do

Your roof stops looking like it belongs in a horror movie. Those black streaks and green patches disappear, and suddenly your house looks like you actually care about it again.

But here’s what most people don’t realize. That algae and moss isn’t just ugly – it’s literally eating your shingles. Every month you wait, it’s costing you money in shortened roof life and higher energy bills.

A properly cleaned roof can add years to your shingles and hundreds to your home value. More importantly, you stop worrying about what the neighbors think when they drive by.

Brucetown Roof Cleaning Company

We Know Kentucky Roofs

We’ve been cleaning roofs in Brucetown and surrounding areas for years. We’ve seen what Kentucky’s humid summers and wet winters do to roofs, and we know exactly how to fix it.

We’re not the guys who show up with a pressure washer and hope for the best. We use the right equipment, the right chemicals, and the right techniques for each type of roofing material.

You won’t find us cutting corners or rushing through jobs. Every roof gets the attention it needs to look great and last longer.

Our Roof Washing Process

How We Clean Your Roof

First, we inspect your roof and identify what we’re dealing with. Algae needs different treatment than moss, and different shingle types require different approaches.

We protect your landscaping and surrounding areas before we start. Then we apply our cleaning solution, which does the heavy lifting of breaking down the organic growth without damaging your shingles.

The final step is a controlled rinse that removes all the dead algae, moss, and debris. Your roof comes clean without the high-pressure washing that can damage older shingles or blow off granules.

Complete Roof Cleaning Services

What's Included in Every Job

Every roof cleaning includes a full inspection, complete algae and moss removal, and gutter cleaning. We don’t just clean what you can see from the street – we clean the entire roof surface.

We handle the stuff that grows in Kentucky’s climate: black algae streaks, green moss patches, lichen, and general debris buildup. If it’s growing on your roof and shouldn’t be there, we remove it.

You also get gutter cleaning and downspout clearing as part of the service. Clean gutters are essential for keeping your roof in good shape, so we make sure water flows where it’s supposed to go.

Will pressure washing damage my roof shingles?

High-pressure washing can absolutely damage shingles, especially on older roofs. That’s why we use a soft-wash system that relies on cleaning solutions rather than pressure. Our method removes algae and moss without stripping granules or lifting shingles. We adjust our approach based on your roof’s age and material type. The cleaning solution does the work, and we use only enough water pressure to rinse away the dead organic matter. This protects your roof while getting it completely clean.

How often should I have my roof cleaned in Kentucky?

Most roofs in Kentucky need cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific situation. Roofs with more shade or north-facing slopes tend to grow algae and moss faster. If you’re seeing black streaks or green patches, it’s time for a cleaning regardless of when you last had it done. Waiting too long means the organic growth gets deeper into your shingles, making it harder to remove and more likely to cause permanent damage. Regular cleaning is much cheaper than early roof replacement.

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

The terms are often used interchangeably, but proper roof cleaning involves more than just washing. Cleaning includes treating the organic growth with specialized solutions that kill algae and moss at the root level. Simple washing might remove surface dirt but won’t eliminate the organisms causing the stains. Our roof cleaning process treats the underlying problem, not just the visible symptoms. This means your roof stays cleaner longer and the algae doesn’t come back as quickly.

Is roof cleaning safe for my plants and landscaping?

We take extensive precautions to protect your landscaping during every roof cleaning job. Before we start, we wet down all plants and cover sensitive vegetation with tarps. Our cleaning solutions are diluted by the time they reach ground level, and we rinse everything thoroughly afterward. We’ve been doing this long enough to know which plants need extra protection and how to keep your landscaping healthy. Most homeowners are surprised that their plants look better after we’re done because we’re so thorough with the rinsing process.

How long does a typical roof cleaning take?

Most residential roof cleaning jobs take 3-5 hours, depending on the size of your roof and how much buildup we’re dealing with. We don’t rush through jobs because proper cleaning takes time for the solutions to work effectively. The actual cleaning process involves application time, dwell time for the chemicals to break down the organic growth, and thorough rinsing. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we inspect your roof, and we always clean up completely before we leave.

What happens if it rains right after my roof is cleaned?

Rain actually helps the final cleaning process by continuing to rinse away any remaining dead organic matter. Once we’ve completed the treatment and initial rinse, your roof cleaning is essentially done. The cleaning solutions have already done their work of killing the algae and moss, so rain won’t wash away the results. In fact, we prefer to schedule jobs when there’s no rain in the immediate forecast, but a light rain a day or two later won’t hurt anything. Your roof will continue to look better as any remaining debris gets naturally rinsed away.
