Got Questions? We Have Answers
Roof soft washing is a low-pressure roof cleaning method that uses appropriate cleaning solutions to help remove dirt, moss, mould, lichen, algae and other surface contamination.
Soft washing uses significantly less water pressure and is designed to reduce the need for aggressive cleaning. However, the appropriate method depends on the roofing material and condition of the individual roof.
Soft washing can help address moss and other organic growth. Depending on the amount and condition of the growth, additional treatment or follow-up maintenance may also be recommended.
Potentially. Older or weathered roofs require careful assessment before cleaning. We’ll inspect the roof and determine whether soft washing is appropriate for its condition.
There is no fixed schedule that applies to every property. Factors such as roof type, surrounding trees, shade, moisture and the rate of organic growth can affect how often cleaning is required.
Where required, gutter cleaning can be added to the service. If roof contamination or debris is likely to affect the gutters, we can recommend gutter cleaning as part of the overall exterior maintenance.
