We start by removing loose debris, then apply a low-pressure cleaning solution from the ground or a ladder. The pressure is comparable to a garden hose. The treatment kills moss and algae, and the growth may turn white or brown. Remaining dead growth gradually weathers away with rain and wind, typically over the next one to two months.

GENTLE ON YOUR ROOF
Roof Cleaning Without the Foot Traffic
We clean from the ground or a ladder, so there is no need to walk across your shingles. That means less foot traffic on your roof and less exposure to rooftop hazards for our crew.
Our soft wash treats moss and algae with low pressure, comparable to a garden hose. No brushing, scrubbing, or high-pressure washing. We follow ARMA cleaning guidance and the applicable roof manufacturer's instructions.
Care for Your Landscaping, Too
Before treatment, we pre-soak nearby plants, shrubs, and grass and apply a protective neutralizing agent. After cleaning, we thoroughly rinse surrounding vegetation with fresh water to help protect your lawn and garden.

Home Pal recently addressed a build of up moss and other gunk on my garage roof. Excellent communication, fair pricing and outstanding service.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Treat the Growth. Let It Weather Away.
Our cleaning solution targets moss and algae without forcing the growth off your shingles. After treatment, moss may look white or brown and remain visible while it releases naturally.
Rain and wind gradually carry away the remaining dead growth, typically over the next one to two months. Timing varies with the amount of growth and the weather. We do not brush or scrape the roof to rush that process.
Keep Ahead of Regrowth
After your initial roof treatment, our annual maintenance plan helps keep organic growth from taking hold again. Annual care includes gutter and downspout clearing, roof growth checks, LIFETIME Never-Green protection, and preferred HomePal pricing.

Roof Cleaning FAQs
High-pressure washing can damage asphalt shingles and may affect your roof warranty. We use low-pressure soft washing instead, without brushing or scrubbing. Our approach follows ARMA cleaning guidance and the applicable manufacturer's instructions for your roofing material.
It depends on the roof and its surroundings. Shade, nearby trees, and debris buildup all play a role. We typically recommend cleaning every one to two years to help keep moss and algae under control. Annual maintenance is also available.
On asphalt roofs, some white or brown dead moss may remain after treatment. This is normal. We intentionally avoid brushing, scrubbing, or high pressure to force it off. The remaining growth generally weathers away over one to two months, depending on conditions. If stubborn spots remain or regrowth appears within a year of service, contact us for a no-charge retreatment under our green-free guarantee.
