Roof Cleaning
Remove black streaks, algae, moss, and lichen with a gentle, low-pressure clean that’s safe for your shingles.
Those dark streaks on many Texas roofs are usually algae, not dirt. Left alone, algae, moss, and lichen hold moisture against the shingles and make a roof look older than it is. A proper cleaning removes them without harming the roof.
Why low pressure
Pressure washing a shingle roof blasts off the protective granules and can void shingle warranties. We use a low-pressure soft wash that cleans the surface and leaves the shingles intact.
What a cleaning covers
- Black streaks and algae staining
- Moss and lichen growth
- Debris in valleys and behind chimneys
- A quick check for damage while we’re up there
- Plants and landscaping protected during the work
Cleaning before rejuvenation
A clean roof is the right starting point for rejuvenation, so the treatment reaches the shingles evenly. We can do both on the same project.

Common questions
What causes black streaks on my roof?
Usually a type of algae that feeds on the shingles. It’s common in warm, humid climates like Central Texas.
Will cleaning damage my shingles?
Not with the right method. We use low pressure, never a pressure washer, so the protective granules stay on the shingles.
How long does a roof cleaning last?
It depends on shade, trees, and moisture around your home. Roofs under heavy tree cover tend to need it more often.
Can you clean the roof and gutters together?
Yes. We often clean the roof and gutters in the same visit.
