Pea Ridge Roof Cleaning Company

We Actually Know Kentucky Roofs

We’ve been cleaning roofs in Pea Ridge and surrounding areas for years. We understand exactly what Kentucky’s humid climate does to your shingles.

We’re not some fly-by-night pressure washing company that treats every surface the same. We’re roof cleaning specialists who know the difference between algae stains and actual roof damage. We know which cleaning methods protect your shingles and which ones destroy them.

Licensed, insured, and equipped with the right tools for the job. Not a pickup truck with a pressure washer.

Our Roof Washing Process

Safe Cleaning That Actually Works

First, we inspect your roof completely. We identify what’s growing up there, check for any damage, and determine the safest cleaning approach for your specific shingle type.

Then we apply our specialized cleaning solution. This isn’t hardware store bleach or high-pressure water that strips your shingles. It’s a targeted treatment that kills algae, moss, and lichen at the root without damaging your roofing materials.

We let the solution do the work, then rinse everything clean with low-pressure water. The stains wash away, the growth dies off, and your shingles stay intact. The whole process takes a few hours, and you see results immediately.

Complete Roof Cleaning Services

Everything Your Roof Actually Needs

You get complete algae and moss removal, not just surface cleaning. We treat the entire roof system including gutters, downspouts, and any affected siding areas.

We handle the specific problems Kentucky roofs face. That black streaking from Gloeocapsa Magma algae. The moss that grows in our humid conditions. The lichen that literally eats your shingles.

Every job includes a thorough inspection, safe cleaning with professional-grade equipment, and a clear explanation of what we found and what we fixed. You know exactly what condition your roof is in when we’re done.

How often should I have my roof professionally cleaned?

Most roofs in Pea Ridge need cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific conditions. Homes with more shade, near trees, or facing north tend to develop algae and moss faster. If you’re seeing black streaks or green growth, it’s time. Waiting longer just means the organisms have more time to damage your shingles, making the cleaning harder and potentially requiring roof repairs instead of just cleaning.

Will pressure washing damage my roof shingles?

High-pressure washing absolutely will damage your shingles. It strips away the protective granules, shortens your roof’s life, and can void your warranty. That’s why we use low-pressure soft washing with specialized cleaning solutions. The chemicals do the work of killing algae and moss, not high-pressure water. Your shingles stay intact, and the cleaning is actually more thorough because we’re treating the root cause, not just blasting the surface.

What are those black streaks on my roof?

Those black streaks are Gloeocapsa Magma, a type of algae that feeds on the limestone filler in your asphalt shingles. It’s not just cosmetic – it’s actually eating your roof. The algae retains moisture, which accelerates shingle deterioration and can lead to leaks. It also makes your roof absorb more heat, increasing cooling costs. The streaks start small but spread across your entire roof if left untreated.

How much does professional roof cleaning cost compared to replacement?

Professional roof cleaning typically costs a few hundred to a couple thousand dollars, depending on your roof size and condition. Compare that to roof replacement, which runs $15,000-$25,000 for most homes in our area. Regular cleaning can extend your roof’s life by 5-10 years, making it one of the best investments you can make in your home. Plus, clean roofs improve curb appeal and property value immediately.

Is roof cleaning safe for my landscaping and gutters?

When done properly, yes. We pre-wet all plants and cover sensitive landscaping before starting. Our cleaning solutions are diluted appropriately and rinsed thoroughly. We also clean and flush your gutters as part of the process to remove any debris or cleaning residue. DIY roof cleaning is where you see plant damage and gutter problems – people use too much chemical or don’t rinse properly. Professional equipment and experience make all the difference.

Should I clean my roof or just replace it?

If your shingles are structurally sound with no major damage, cleaning is almost always the right choice first. Many homeowners think they need a new roof when they really just need a good cleaning. We’ll give you an honest assessment during our inspection. If your roof has significant damage, missing shingles, or is near the end of its expected life anyway, replacement might make more sense. But don’t replace a roof just because it looks bad – most of the time, that’s a cleaning issue.
