Question 1

Why soft wash instead of pressure wash an asphalt shingle roof?

Accepted Answer

Pressure strips the protective granules off shingles and can void the manufacturer warranty. Soft washing applies a professional-grade solution at low pressure that kills algae, moss, and lichen at the root, then rinses clean. The contamination is gone and the shingle is untouched.

Question 2

How often should a roof be cleaned in Northeast Ohio?

Accepted Answer

Once a year keeps most roofs clean and protected. Our washing season runs March through November.

Question 3

Do I need to be home?

Accepted Answer

No. Most roofs are quoted the same day from property imagery, and the work only needs exterior water access. Standard prep: spigots on, windows and doors closed tight, vehicles moved out of the work area.

Question 4

What cleaning solution do you use?

Accepted Answer

A biodegradable, professional-grade soft-wash solution applied at low pressure. It targets the living organisms on the roof, not the shingle, and everything is rinsed thoroughly when the job is done.

Question 5

How do you protect landscaping?

Accepted Answer

Every plant bed near the house is thoroughly watered before and after the job. We never tarp landscaping, because tarps suffocate foliage. Exterior outlets are taped off and doorbells and cameras are covered until we leave.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Every roof is different, so pricing is by the property. Send us the address and most roofs are quoted the same day from property imagery. Nobody needs to be home for the estimate.
