5/5
NW Softwash did a great job on our composite roof last year so we used them to power wash our concrete and softwash our pavers to get the accumulation of moss & mold off. Marshall and Canaan did a great job be careful of our landscaping and going the extra effort to hit a few other spots and they drained there equipment and retouch a small section of our roof where the moss was returning. Very pleased.

Our Roof Cleaning Process

1. Inspection & Light Sweep – We first assess the roof’s condition and then provide a light sweep of the moss and debris.

2. Treatment Process – Once the debris is agitated, we blow off the roof with leaf blowers to clean off the surface. Next, we apply a low pressure liquid moss treatment that kills the moss including its root systems.

3. Clean Up & Results – After the treatment is applied, our technicians will clean up all fallen debris from the grounds around your home. Moving forward, you will see the dead moss compounds dry up and flake off your roof in the upcoming months with the wind and rain. Expect the treatment to last up to 3-5 years with the most minimal impact to your roof structure and materials!

Frequently Asked Questions

See our most popular questions and answers below for Roof Cleaning

Yes! Unlike high-pressure washing, soft washing uses low-pressure water and specialized cleaning solutions to remove moss, algae, and stains without damaging your shingles. It’s the recommended method for asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, tile, and metal roofs. Always verify with the service provider on the chemicals being used on your roof to avoid voiding your warranties.

Soft washing not only treats existing moss but also includes a post-treatment solution that kills spores and slows regrowth. While no method can permanently stop moss in the PNW’s damp climate, our licensed pesticide application helps keep your roof cleaner for much longer than DIY methods.

Yes, it's always a good idea to be on a preventative schedule! Even if you don’t see moss, your roof could have black streaks (algae), lichen, or early-stage moss growth. Preventative cleaning extends your roof’s lifespan, prevents leaks, and maintains curb appeal. If left untreated, buildup can trap moisture, leading to premature roof damage and costly repairs.

Signs Your Roof Needs Professional Cleaning

  • Black streaks on shingles (caused by algae and bacteria)
  • Green moss or lichen growth
  • Dull, discolored roof appearance
  • Debris buildup in valleys and gutters
  • Shingles retaining moisture or showing early signs of deterioration

Why Regular Roof Cleaning Matters

Many homeowners don’t realize that moss, algae, and organic buildup can shorten the life of their roof. In the Pacific Northwest, where damp conditions encourage rapid growth, neglecting roof maintenance can lead to water damage, leaks, and expensive repairs. Our soft wash roof cleaning eliminates harmful growth while preserving the integrity of your shingles.
