Your Roof Looks New Again

You know that feeling when you drive up to your house and actually feel proud of how it looks? That’s what happens when years of moss, algae, and dark streaks disappear from your roof.

But this isn’t just about looks. Those black streaks and green patches are actually eating away at your shingles. Every month you wait, they’re shortening your roof’s lifespan and setting you up for expensive repairs down the road.

When we’re done, your roof doesn’t just look better – it performs better. Water runs off like it should. Your shingles stop deteriorating. And you get years more life out of an investment that probably cost you $15,000 or more to begin with.

Fedscreek Roof Cleaning Company

We Know Kentucky Roofs

We’ve been cleaning roofs in Eastern Kentucky for years, and we understand what our humid climate does to your home. Between the moisture rolling off the mountains and all the trees dropping debris, your roof takes a beating that roofs in drier climates never see.

We’re not some fly-by-night operation or a crew that shows up with a pressure washer and hopes for the best. We’re licensed, insured, and we use the right equipment for the job. Most importantly, we live here too – so when we say we’ll take care of your roof like it’s our own, we mean it.

Our Roof Washing Process

Simple Process, Lasting Results

First, we inspect your roof to identify problem areas and check for any damage that needs attention before we start. We’re not just looking at the obvious spots – we’re checking valleys, edges, and anywhere moisture tends to collect.

Next, we apply our cleaning solution using low-pressure methods that won’t damage your shingles. No high-pressure washing that can strip granules or force water under your shingles. The solution does the work, not the pressure.

After the cleaning solution has time to work, we rinse everything thoroughly with controlled water pressure. We also clean your gutters and downspouts since they’re usually full of the same debris that’s been growing on your roof. The whole process typically takes a few hours, and you can see the difference immediately.

Everything Your Roof Needs

Our roof cleaning service covers everything from moss and algae removal to cleaning out those gutters that are probably overflowing every time it rains. We treat the entire roof surface, not just the visible problem areas, because those organisms spread.

We use cleaning solutions that are tough on growth but safe for your landscaping and won’t harm the plants around your house. And since we’re already up there with our equipment, we’ll point out any loose shingles, damaged flashing, or other issues you should know about before they become expensive problems.

You get a clean roof, clean gutters, and peace of mind knowing a professional has given your roof a thorough inspection. Most homeowners are surprised by how much better their entire house looks when the roof is properly cleaned.

Will pressure washing damage my roof shingles?

High-pressure washing absolutely can damage shingles, which is why we don’t use it. We use a soft-wash method that relies on cleaning solutions to do the work, not water pressure. Our approach removes moss, algae, and stains without stripping granules from your shingles or forcing water underneath them where it doesn’t belong. This method is actually recommended by most shingle manufacturers and won’t void your warranty like aggressive pressure washing might.

How often should I have my roof cleaned?

Most roofs in our area benefit from professional cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific situation. If your house is surrounded by trees or stays shaded most of the day, you might need cleaning more frequently. If you start seeing dark streaks or green patches, don’t wait – those organisms are actively damaging your shingles. The longer you wait, the harder they are to remove and the more damage they cause. We can give you a more specific timeline based on your roof’s condition and surroundings.

What's the black streaking on my roof?

Those black streaks are caused by algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on the limestone filler in your shingles and retains moisture, which creates perfect conditions for other growth like moss and lichen. The streaks aren’t just ugly – they’re literally eating your roof. The algae also makes your roof retain heat, which can increase your cooling costs and accelerate shingle aging. The good news is that this type of growth responds well to proper cleaning methods, and once it’s gone, your roof will look years younger.

Is roof cleaning worth the cost?

When you consider that a new roof costs $15,000-30,000 or more, spending a few hundred dollars every few years to extend its life makes perfect financial sense. Moss and algae don’t just make your roof look bad – they actively shorten its lifespan by retaining moisture and breaking down shingle materials. Professional cleaning can add years to your roof’s life, maintain your home’s value, and help you avoid premature replacement. Most of our customers wish they’d started having their roofs cleaned sooner.

Can I clean my roof myself?

While it’s technically possible, we don’t recommend it for several reasons. First, roof work is dangerous – falls from roofs cause thousands of injuries every year. Second, using the wrong cleaning products or methods can damage your shingles or kill your landscaping. Third, you need the right equipment to do it safely and effectively. Most store-bought cleaners aren’t strong enough to handle established growth, and rental equipment often uses too much pressure. When you factor in the cost of materials, equipment rental, and your time, professional cleaning usually costs less than doing it yourself.

Will cleaning my roof help with ice dams?

Clean roofs do help reduce ice dam formation, though they’re not a complete solution. When your roof is covered in moss and debris, it doesn’t shed water properly, which can contribute to ice dam problems in winter. A clean roof allows water and melting snow to flow off more efficiently. However, ice dams are primarily caused by heat loss from your attic and inadequate insulation. If you’re having ice dam issues, roof cleaning is a good start, but you’ll also want to address ventilation and insulation problems for a complete solution.
