Roof Washing done right in Princeton

The streaks are not dirt and they will not rinse off. They are a living colony feeding on the shingle. That is why they come back after every rain and why they keep spreading. Killing the growth is the only fix that holds.

Those black streaks are algae eating the limestone in your shingles. Pressure washing a roof strips granules and voids warranties. We soft wash instead, so the growth dies and your roof stays whole.

A roof is the last place you want high pressure. We apply a low-pressure treatment that kills the algae and moss on Princeton roofs and rinses clean, which is the method shingle makers actually approve.

Signs it is time in Princeton

If any of these look familiar, the buildup is already working on the surface. Waiting makes it harder to remove, not easier.

  • Black streaks running down from the ridge
  • Green moss along the shaded slope
  • Crusty raised lichen spots on the shingles

How it works

Our Roof Washing process

1

Inspect the roof

We check pitch, material, and the worst growth.

2

Apply treatment

A soft wash solution goes on to kill algae, moss, and lichen.

3

Gentle rinse

We rinse at low pressure so nothing tears loose.

4

Protect the ground

We rinse gutters and beds so runoff stays clean.

Pricing

What roof washing costs in Princeton

Roof washing in Princeton prices off roof size, pitch, and how much growth has taken hold. A simple single-story roof goes quickly. Steep pitch, several planes, or heavy moss takes more time and more care.

What moves the number
  • Roof square footage
  • Pitch and how many planes
  • How much moss and lichen has set in
  • Access and setup around the house

Questions

Roof Washing in Princeton, answered

How long before the streaks come back?
With our treatment most Princeton roofs stay clean for a few years. Heavy shade can shorten that.
Can you clean a metal or tile roof?
Yes. We adjust the process for asphalt, metal, and tile so each one gets cleaned safely.
Do you walk on my roof?
As little as we can. We work from ladders and the ground wherever possible, which is safer for the shingles and for us.
What about the plants under the eaves?
We soak them before, keep them wet through the job, and rinse them after. That is standard on every roof we do.
