Protect and Revitalize Your Roof Moss, algae, lichens, and other atmospheric growths can cause structural damage to roofs, despite some considering the greenish hues 'quaint.' A common bacterium, Gloeocapsa magma, also causes unsightly black staining. When a roof becomes covered with moss, it's often near the end of its projected life cycle, making maintenance and cleaning crucial. Traditional high-pressure cleaning methods can further damage aging roofs and are not recommended by roofing material manufacturers or associations. Why Softwashing is the Superior Solution Softwashing offers a gentle yet effective method for roof cleaning and restoration. Our pH-neutral blend targets specific roof infections and eliminates Gloeocapsa magma without damaging roof materials. Using a low-pressure tank system and light brushing, we ensure thorough sanitization. Softwashing harnesses the power of chemistry to eliminate infestations at both the surface and root, with products that activate in minutes and remain effective for months. Our Softwashing Process 1. Comprehensive Roof Analysis: We conduct a thorough analysis and risk assessment of your roof to identify the exact infections and any areas needing repair before cleaning. 2. Preparatory Cleaning: Surface mosses and lichens are removed, eliminating 90% of visible growth before applying the softwash solution. 3. Protecting Surroundings: We take all necessary precautions to protect your garden and surroundings from exposure to the softwash solution. 4. Gentle Cleaning: Using minimal pressure, we cleanse the roof with the correctly blended softwash detergents, which kill and eliminate spores and bacteria like Gloeocapsa magma. 5. Gutter and Fascia Cleaning: We also clean and shine your guttering and fascias for a complete finish. Unlike high-pressure blasting, which can damage roofs and fail to address the root cause of infections, our professional low-pressure softwashing solution leaves roofs clear and secure for months to come.
