Your Roof After Professional Cleaning

You’ll see the difference immediately. Those black streaks disappear. The moss that was slowly destroying your shingles is gone. Your roof looks years younger.

But the real value shows up over time. Clean roofs last longer because algae and moss aren’t eating away at the materials. Your energy bills stay lower because dark buildup isn’t absorbing extra heat. Insurance companies stay happy because you’re maintaining your property properly.

Most importantly, you avoid the nightmare of premature roof replacement. A roof that should last 20-25 years actually does when it’s properly maintained. That’s thousands of dollars staying in your pocket instead of going to emergency repairs.

Roof Washing Process

How We Clean Your Roof

First, we inspect your roof to identify problem areas and choose the right approach. Not every roof needs the same treatment, and we adjust our methods based on your specific roofing material and the type of buildup we’re dealing with.

Next, we apply our cleaning solution using low-pressure techniques that won’t damage shingles. High-pressure washing can strip granules and create leaks, so we use soft washing methods that rely on the right chemicals rather than brute force.

Finally, we rinse everything clean and inspect our work. You’ll see the results immediately, but the cleaning solution continues working for weeks to prevent regrowth. We also clean up any debris and leave your property looking better than when we arrived.

Complete Roof Cleaning Services

What's Included in Every Service

Every roof cleaning includes a thorough inspection, complete algae and moss removal, and gutter cleaning where accessible. We document the before and after conditions so you can see exactly what you’re getting for your investment.

We also handle the details that matter. Your landscaping gets protected with tarps and pre-watering. Windows and siding get rinsed if overspray occurs. Any loose debris gets removed from gutters and downspouts.

In Toonerville’s climate, we see a lot of roofs that haven’t been cleaned in years. The buildup can be significant, but we have the equipment and experience to handle even heavily contaminated roofs safely and effectively.

Will pressure washing damage my roof shingles?

High-pressure washing absolutely can damage shingles by stripping away protective granules and forcing water under the shingles where it doesn’t belong. That’s why we use soft washing techniques that rely on specialized cleaning solutions rather than high pressure. Our approach removes algae, moss, and stains effectively while preserving the integrity of your roofing materials. The cleaning solution does the work, not brute force, which means your shingles stay intact and your warranty remains valid.

How often should I have my roof professionally cleaned?

Most roofs in Kentucky benefit from professional cleaning every 2-3 years, but it depends on your specific situation. Roofs with heavy tree coverage or those facing north tend to develop algae and moss faster. If you’re seeing black streaks or green moss growth, it’s time for cleaning regardless of when it was last done. Regular cleaning is much more cost-effective than waiting until the buildup becomes severe, and it significantly extends your roof’s lifespan by preventing organic growth from breaking down the roofing materials.

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

The terms are often used interchangeably, but there can be important differences in approach. Roof cleaning typically refers to the complete process of removing algae, moss, lichen, and debris using appropriate methods for your specific roofing material. Roof washing might just mean spraying with water or using high pressure, which can cause damage. When you’re getting quotes, ask specifically about their methods and whether they use soft washing techniques with proper cleaning solutions, not just pressure washing.

Is roof cleaning safe for my landscaping and gutters?

When done properly, yes. We pre-water all plants and cover sensitive landscaping before starting any work. Our cleaning solutions are designed to break down quickly and won’t harm established plants when properly diluted. We also clean gutters as part of the service and ensure downspouts are flowing properly. However, this is another reason to choose experienced professionals rather than attempting DIY cleaning – improper chemical use or failure to protect landscaping can cause expensive damage to your property.

How long does the roof cleaning process take?

Most residential roof cleaning jobs take 2-4 hours depending on the size of your roof and the extent of buildup. We’re not rushing through the job, but we’re also not wasting your time. The actual cleaning happens relatively quickly, but proper preparation and cleanup are just as important. Weather conditions can affect timing – we won’t work in high winds or during storms, and we need dry conditions for the cleaning solution to work effectively.

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

Light rain won’t hurt anything, but heavy rain within the first few hours can reduce the effectiveness of the cleaning solution. That’s why we monitor weather forecasts carefully and schedule jobs when we expect at least 4-6 hours of dry conditions after cleaning. If unexpected heavy rain occurs before the solution has time to work, we’ll return to retreat any areas that need attention at no additional charge. The cleaning solution continues working for weeks after application, so normal rainfall actually helps rinse away dead algae and moss.
