What Are Those Black Streaks on Your Roof?

Eats Your Shingles

The algae breaks down shingle granules over time.

Traps Moisture

Algae and lichen hold water against the surface, promoting rot.

Kills Curb Appeal

A stained roof makes an entire property look neglected.

Raises Insurer Questions

A visibly stained roof can trigger an inspection request.

The growth does not stop on its own. It gets worse every year. Cleaning your roof is not vanity. It is maintenance.

Those dark streaks running down your roof are not dirt, and they are not just cosmetic. They are Gloeocapsa magma, a type of blue-green algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. Here is what it actually does to your roof:

Soft Wash vs. Pressure Washing: Why It Matters

Soft Wash (Our Method)

Under 100 PSI

About the same as a garden hose.

Biocide treatment

Kills algae, mold, and lichen at the root.

No damage

No granule loss, no cracked tiles, no warranty issues.

Pressure Washing (The Wrong Way)

2,000–3,000 PSI

Far more force than a roof surface needs.

Strips granules

That force strips protective granules off shingles.

Voids warranties

Can also crack tiles and void manufacturer warranties.

Most companies that advertise roof cleaning use a pressure washer. But pressure washing a roof causes real damage.

We are roofers first. Soft wash results last 2-3 years, while pressure washing damage is permanent.

How We Clean Your Roof

01

Inspection

Before we clean anything, we inspect. We check for damaged shingles, cracked tiles, failing flashing, and any condition that needs attention before cleaning.

02

Soft Wash Application

Our crew applies the biocide solution across the entire roof surface. The solution targets algae, mold, lichen, and moss at the cellular level. No pressure, no scrubbing.

03

Rinse and Clear

We rinse the treatment to carry away killed growth and debris. Gutters and downspouts are cleared so nothing backs up.

04

Post-Clean Inspection

Final inspection of the roof surface. If cleaning revealed hidden damage, we document it and let you know.

The entire process takes 2-4 hours for a typical residential roof.

Growth We Remove

How Much Does Roof Cleaning Cost?

We quote every job individually based on roof size, pitch, accessibility, and growth severity.

Residential: $300 to $900. Most Daytona Beach homes fall between $400 and $700.

Commercial: $500 to $2,000+

What affects the price:

  • Roof size. A 1,200 sq ft ranch costs less than a 3,000 sq ft two-story.
  • Pitch. Steeper roofs require safety equipment.
  • Severity. Heavy lichen takes longer than light algae.
  • Accessibility. Trees and multi-story homes affect setup.

We give you the price before we start. Call (386) 564-6700 for a free estimate.
