Roof & Gutter Cleaning · Roof Soft Wash
Black streaking on a roof near Point Pleasant and the Jersey Shore is almost always algae, and pressure washing it is one of the worst things you can do to asphalt shingles. We soft wash roofs at low pressure to kill the algae without damaging the shingles.

Pricing is based on roof size, pitch, and access, and confirmed before any work begins.
The dark streaks most homeowners notice are typically gloeocapsa magma algae, which spreads across shingles in humid or shaded conditions and feeds on the limestone in the granules. It is a cosmetic and shingle-health issue, and it does not go away on its own.
High-pressure equipment strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles, shortens the roof's remaining life, and can void a manufacturer's warranty. A soft wash uses low pressure and a cleaning solution that kills the algae at the root without that risk.
We apply the cleaning solution, let it dwell long enough to kill the algae, and rinse at low pressure from the roof edge or a safe working position. Landscaping below is protected and rinsed as part of the process.
Price depends on roof size, pitch, and how heavy the streaking is. We give you a flat quote before any work begins, based on a look at the roof.

Soft washing done correctly generally does not, since it avoids the high pressure that causes granule loss. Pressure washing a roof, by contrast, commonly does void shingle warranties.
The algae is killed on contact, but the visible streaks fade gradually over the following days to weeks as rain rinses the dead residue away.
Yes. We pre-wet and rinse plants and lawn areas near the runoff path as part of the process.
