Roof Cleaning Process McCarr

Simple Process, Professional Results

Next, we apply our cleaning solution using low-pressure techniques that won’t damage your shingles. We’re not blasting away with high pressure that can strip granules or force water under your roofing materials.

The cleaning solution does the heavy lifting, breaking down algae, moss, and organic buildup safely. We then rinse everything away, leaving your roof clean and protected. You’ll see the difference immediately, and your roof will thank you for years to come.

What You Get With Every Service

Every roof cleaning includes a complete inspection where we identify potential issues before they become expensive problems. You get a clean roof plus peace of mind about its condition.

We clean all roof surfaces, gutters, and downspouts as part of the service. Those areas work together, and cleaning just the roof while leaving clogged gutters doesn’t make sense.

You also get protection for your landscaping and property. We pre-treat plants, cover sensitive areas, and clean up completely when we’re done. Your yard looks as good as your roof when we leave.

How often should I have my roof professionally cleaned in Kentucky?

Most Kentucky homeowners benefit from professional roof cleaning every 2-3 years, though this depends on your specific environment. Homes with heavy tree coverage or those facing north tend to develop algae and moss faster due to increased moisture and shade. If you’re seeing dark streaks or green patches, it’s time for cleaning regardless of when you last had it done. Regular cleaning actually extends the time between services because we remove the organic matter that feeds future growth.

Will roof cleaning damage my shingles or void my warranty?

Proper roof cleaning using manufacturer-approved methods won’t damage your shingles or affect your warranty. We use low-pressure techniques and specialized cleaning solutions rather than high-pressure washing that can strip granules or force water under shingles. Many roofing warranties actually require regular maintenance, including cleaning, to remain valid. We follow ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association) guidelines to ensure your roof is cleaned safely and your warranty protection remains intact.

What's the difference between DIY roof cleaning and professional service?

The biggest difference is safety and effectiveness. Professional roof cleaning eliminates the fall risk that injures thousands of homeowners each year. We also have the right equipment and cleaning solutions to remove buildup without damaging your roof. DIY attempts often involve pressure washers that can strip shingle granules or force water into places it shouldn’t go. We also spot potential problems during cleaning that homeowners typically miss, potentially saving you from expensive repairs down the road.

How long does professional roof cleaning take to complete?

Most residential roof cleaning takes 3-6 hours depending on your roof’s size, pitch, and condition. We’re not rushing through the job—proper cleaning takes time to ensure we remove all buildup safely. The process includes setup, inspection, cleaning solution application, dwell time for the solution to work, rinsing, and cleanup. Weather conditions can affect timing, and we won’t compromise safety or quality to meet an arbitrary schedule. You’ll have a clean roof that lasts, not a rushed job that needs redoing.

Is roof cleaning worth the cost compared to just replacing the roof?

Professional roof cleaning costs a fraction of roof replacement while extending your current roof’s lifespan significantly. A typical cleaning runs hundreds of dollars versus tens of thousands for replacement. Regular cleaning can add 5-10 years to a roof’s life by removing the organic growth that breaks down shingles over time. Even if your roof eventually needs replacement, keeping it clean maintains your home’s curb appeal and prevents premature deterioration that could lead to leaks or structural issues before you’re ready to replace it.

What should I expect to see after professional roof cleaning?

You’ll notice immediate improvement in your roof’s appearance—dark algae streaks disappear, and moss buildup is completely removed. Your roof will look years newer and significantly boost your home’s curb appeal. Some staining may take a few weeks to fully fade as our cleaning solution continues working. You’ll also have peace of mind knowing potential issues were identified during our inspection. Most importantly, you’ll have a roof that’s protected from the organic growth that shortens shingle life, meaning fewer repairs and longer time before replacement is needed.
