- Insurance-Friendly Maintenance – Many policies require upkeep to prevent claims from being denied.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are black roof streaks harmful?
Yes. They’re caused by Gloeocapsa Magma, an algae that feeds on your shingles and shortens roof life.
Will you use a pressure washer on my roof?
No. We use a soft wash system recommended by major shingle manufacturers—safe, gentle, and effective.
How long does roof cleaning last?
Most roofs stay clean for 3–5 years after treatment, depending on local tree coverage and moisture levels.
