What is Roof Soft Washing?
Roof soft washing is a safe and effective way to clean and protect your roof by removing moss, algae, lichen, mold, and stains without the damage caused by high-pressure washing.Â
Â
Using a low-pressure application combined with specialized cleaning solutions, soft washing not only restores curb appeal but also kills organic growth at the root to prevent it from coming back. This process is ideal for delicate roofing materials like asphalt shingles, tile, or cedar shake, helping extend the lifespan of your roof while avoiding costly repairs or premature replacement.
Â
Homeowners in Washington often notice black streaks or green moss that trap moisture and weaken shingles, and roof soft washing is the proven solution to stop that damage.
What is Roof Soft Washing?
Roof soft washing is a safe and effective way to clean and protect your roof by removing moss, algae, lichen, mold, and stains without the damage of high-pressure washing. Using low-pressure application with specialized cleaning solutions, it restores curb appeal, kills organic growth at the root to prevent regrowth, and is ideal for delicate materials like asphalt shingles, tile, or cedar shake. By stopping black streaks and moss that trap moisture and weaken shingles, soft washing extends roof life and helps homeowners avoid costly repairs or premature replacement.
OUR PROCESS
Remove Debris & Large Moss
Our team will use blowers, rubberized brooms and soft bristle brushes to gently remove large debris and cluster of moss. Our goal in this initial step is to remove as many organics as possible without compromising the granules on the roof.
On every roof, our technicians will:
- We'll inspect the roof for damage.
- Remove debris & large moss clusters gently.
- Prepare the roof to receive soft wash solution.
Apply soft wash solution
One the roof is mostly cleared, we will apply a soft wash solution comprised of Sodium Hypochlorite (the active ingredient in pool shock to kill algae), a Surfactant, and Water. The moss absorbs this treatment and dies at the root within minutes.Â
On every roof, our technicians will:
- Apply Our Soft Wash Solution
- Ensure the Moss Receives the Treatment
- Allow 15-20 Minutes for the Moss to Die
Dwell & Rinse
Once the treatment is applied, it will need 15-20 minutes for the moss to absorbs the solution to its’ root. We will perform a final low pressure rinse to remove 80-90% of the remaining moss. The solution will continue to work along with rain over the next 4-12 weeks for a gently clean roof.
On every roof, our technicians will:
- Allow 15-20 Minutes for The Moss to Absorb the Treatment
- Perform a Low Pressure Rinse to Remove Moss
- Remaining Moss will Dissolve over 4-12 Weeks.
OUR PROCESS
Remove Debris
We use a rubberized broom and blower to clear loose moss, leaves, and debris from the roof surface.
Apply Solution
Our specialized cleaning solution is applied with low pressure and allowed to dwell, killing moss, algae, and stains at the root.
Rinse & Inspect
We finish with a gentle, low-pressure rinse to wash away the treatment and leave your roof clean and protected.
Benefits of Roof Soft Washing
The safest way to Clean
Soft washing uses a low-pressure system combined with eco-friendly cleaning solutions to safely lift dirt, moss, and algae without damaging shingles. It’s the perfect balance—powerful enough to restore your roof’s look, but gentle enough to protect its surface.
PRevent Costly Damage
Moss and debris hold moisture that can lead to leaks, rot, and expensive repairs. Soft washing eliminates this growth at the root, ensuring water runs off your roof as intended. By keeping your shingles clear and functional, you protect not only your roof but your entire home’s structure.
Long Lasting
Soft washing gently removes moss, algae, and mildew that slowly eat away at your shingles. A clean roof lasts years longer, saving you thousands on premature replacement. And each service is backed by our 5 Year Moss-Free Warranty giving you piece of mind for years.
