Roof Cleaning in Sterling, VA
Those black streaks on a roof aren't dirt, they're algae. We use a gentle, low-pressure soft wash process to clean roofs safely, instead of a pressure washer that can strip granules and shorten the life of your shingles.
What's included
- Soft wash treatment to remove algae, moss, and black streaks
- Gutter and downspout check as part of the visit
- Careful rinse that protects landscaping and siding below
- Asphalt shingle, metal, and tile roof cleaning
When you need it
Dark streaks running down the roofline, patchy green or black growth, or a roof that hasn't been cleaned since it was installed are the clearest signs it's time.
Why it's worth it
- Extends the life of your roof by removing growth that damages shingles
- Improves curb appeal without the cost of a new roof
- Low-pressure method built to avoid stripping granules or voiding shingle warranties

Roof Cleaning FAQs
Is roof cleaning safe for my shingles?
Yes. We use a low-pressure soft wash approach built for roofs, not a high-pressure wash, so shingles aren't stripped or damaged.
What causes the black streaks on my roof?
It's usually algae, common in Virginia's humid climate. It's a cosmetic issue and, over time, a shingle-health issue, not just dirt.
Can you clean metal or tile roofs too?
Yes, we adjust our method depending on your roofing material. Let us know what you have when you request a quote.
