Roof Cleaning
Remove Roof Moss Before It Becomes a Costly Problem
Moss looks harmless at first. A little green here, a patch or two there. But left alone, it acts like a sponge pressed against your roof, holding moisture, breaking down materials, and quietly shortening the life of one of the most important parts of your home.
At Surface Cleaning Solutions, we provide professional roof cleaning and roof moss removal using soft wash roof cleaning methods built specifically for roofing materials. We’re not just cleaning your roof. We’re protecting it.
Our roof cleaning service covers asphalt shingles, clay tile, concrete tile, and metal roofing systems, and every job is handled by trained technicians with full insurance coverage and property protection measures in place.
It's Not Just an Appearance Problem
Moss and algae don’t just sit on the surface. They attach to the structure of your roofing material, trap moisture, and spread. Over time, that organic growth causes granule loss on asphalt shingles, lifts tiles, creates conditions for leaks, and accelerates wear that should have taken decades.
Professional roof moss removal eliminates growth at the root, stopping damage before it becomes a repair bill.
What You Get From Professional Roof Cleaning
Beyond a cleaner-looking roof, you’re investing in real, measurable protection:
- Extended roof lifespan by eliminating the growth that breaks materials down
- Prevention of leaks, structural damage, and premature aging
- Restored curb appeal and improved property value
- Compliance with HOA requirements or insurance documentation needs
- Lower long-term maintenance costs
Professional roof washing isn’t cosmetic. It’s preventative care for a significant investment.
Three Roof Cleaning Service Programs. One Goal.
Every roof is different. The type of material, the age, the level of growth, and how quickly you need results all shape the right approach. That’s why we offer three roof cleaning service tiers instead of a one-size-fits-all treatment.
All three use a professionally controlled 3 to 6% sodium hypochlorite soft wash roof cleaning solution, adjusted based on your specific roof and growth level.
Tier 1 — Treatment & Natural Release We kill the moss at the root and let natural weather cycles complete the removal over time. A cost-effective roof moss removal option for older or more delicate roofs. Includes a 3-month follow-up inspection with light retreatment and low-pressure rinsing if needed.
Tier 2 — Surface Preparation & Treatment Careful manual removal of visible growth combined with full soft wash roof cleaning treatment. Faster cosmetic results while still protecting your roofing materials. Includes a 3-month follow-up visit to confirm continued results.
Tier 3 — Complete Restoration & Insurance-Ready Our most thorough roof cleaning service. Full organic removal, a scheduled follow-up within 7 to 10 days, and complete documentation including before-and-after photos, paid invoice records, and written confirmation your roof is clean and organic-free. Ideal for insurance claims, real estate transactions, or compliance situations.
Not sure which tier fits your situation? We’ll walk you through it during your estimate and help you choose the safest, most effective path forward.

How Our Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Process Works
Soft wash roof cleaning is fundamentally different from traditional pressure washing. Instead of blasting your roof with high-pressure water, which can force moisture under shingles and strip protective granules, we apply a carefully controlled treatment solution that targets the root structure of moss, algae, and organic buildup.
Here’s what to expect after treatment:
- Within a few days — moss begins to discolor as it dies
- Around 2 to 3 weeks — root structures begin breaking down
- By 6 to 8 weeks — remaining material naturally detaches through weather and, when included in your program, light rinsing
For heavier buildup or situations where faster results matter, we combine roof washing with manual removal and scheduled follow-ups. All debris is tarped, collected, and removed from your property.
Your Property Is Protected Throughout the Process
Professional roof washing involves cleaning solutions that require careful handling around your landscaping, gutters, and exterior surfaces. We take that seriously.
A dedicated ground technician continuously pre-wets plants and surrounding surfaces before, during, and after every roof cleaning service. We bag gutters, manage runoff, check downspouts, and apply a sodium sulfite neutralizer when needed, which converts any residual solution into harmless salts and water to protect delicate plants and surfaces nearby.
Every job also comes backed by:
- Licensed contractor status
- $2,000,000 general liability insurance
- Commercial auto coverage
- Strict professional soft wash roof cleaning standards
You’re not just hiring someone with a sprayer. You’re hiring a team that treats your property with the same care they’d want for their own.
Don't Wait for Small Problems to Become Big Ones
Moss, algae, and roof stains don’t improve on their own. They spread. The earlier you address roof moss removal, the less damage there is to undo.
