Over time, roofs become stained with black streaks, moss, algae, and debris—all of which shorten your roof’s lifespan and ruin curb appeal. At SOMD Curb Appeal, our expert soft wash roof cleaning eliminates harmful growth without damaging your shingles or tiles. It's safe, effective, and long-lasting.

Why Roof Cleaning Matters

Your roof isn’t just a structural necessity—it’s a major investment. If left untreated, organic growth like Gloeocapsa magma (the algae behind black streaks) can degrade roofing materials, leading to premature repairs or even replacement. Our gentle roof cleaning process:

  • Extends the life of your roof

  • Prevents costly damage and rot

  • Restores a like-new appearance

  • Improves energy efficiency by removing

    heat absorbing buildup

  • Enhances curb appeal and property value

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes the black streaks on my roof?

Those black streaks are actually a type of algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on your shingles and spreads over time, reducing your roof’s lifespan and appearance.

Is roof washing safe for my shingles?

Yes! We use a soft washing process with low-pressure water and eco-friendly cleaners that gently remove stains without damaging your shingles or voiding your roof warranty.

How often should I have my roof washed?

Most roofs should be cleaned every 2–3 years, but it can vary based on weather conditions, tree coverage, and humidity levels in your area.

Will roof cleaning help my home’s energy efficiency?

Absolutely. Removing dark algae streaks allows your roof to reflect more sunlight, which can help reduce attic heat and lower your energy bills.
