Our North Plains 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!
After a roof cleaning, we often recommend gutter cleaning
to ensure your whole home is protected from water damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my roof cleaned in the Pacific Northwest?
Due to the wet climate in Washington and Oregon, moss, algae, and lichen grow quickly on roofs. Most homeowners should schedule a soft wash roof cleaning every 3-5 years to prevent buildup and protect their shingles. If your home is surrounded by trees or in a shaded area, annual inspections may be needed.
Is soft washing safe for my roof?
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.
Will soft wash treatments prevent moss from coming back?
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.
Do I need a roof cleaning if I don’t see moss?
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.
Do I need pressure washing for my roof?
No – in fact, high-pressure washing can damage shingles. Our soft washing technique is the recommended method for safe roof moss removal.
Signs Your North Plains Roof Needs Professional Cleaning
- Black streaks on shingles (caused by algae and bacteria)

I highly recommend you for all other services In the future!Posted on Google DavidTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Communication from the office was great. Adam arrived early and clean heavy moss and then treated the whole roof. No pressure washing! Excellent service! David TolleshaugPosted on Google JD QuintinitaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent communication and scheduling throughout the entire process. Both Ford and Isiah were professional, customer-focused, informative, and highly knowledgeable about the roof cleaning service and what to expect afterward. They took the time to explain that while the moss has been successfully treated and is now dead, it will remain on the roof until it naturally loosens and falls away. After the first few rains, the remaining moss will begin to disappear on its own. I highly recommend this company based on the quality of their work, their attention to detail, and the exceptional care and service provided by their employees.Posted on Google Mary MochnalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
