Asphalt & Composition Roofing

Composition / Asphalt Roof Cleaning

Yes a power washer can damage these types of roof.   Commercial Power Washer are 3000 to 4000 PSI and many roofs have been damaged by using a power washer to clean them.  WE DO NOT USE POWER WASHERS ON ROOFS!! 

We clean all types of roofs using water propelled gently at:

•  550 psi for composition / asphalt shingles
• 900 PSI for cedar and
• 1200 psi for tile.                            

A high flow of water volume propelled gently allows us to remove the moss, algae, dirt and lichen and rinse it away quickly.  Most roof cleaners use wire brushes.  We use water.  Water propelled gently provides a softer touch for removing dirt and organic growth from roofs than a wire brush.  Our method also gets roof cleaner than a wire  brush can.  The main reason most roof cleaners do not clean roofs the way we do is because our trailer mounted roof cleaning machine costs about $10k to build.  

Roof Preservation

Keeping roofs moss, algae & lichen free can increase the number of years of use the home owner gets from the roof.  A roofs also often makes up 1/2 of the over all presentation of a home.  Everyone wants there home to look its best.
