Black streaks on many Florida asphalt-shingle roofs are algae discoloration. We first identify the roof material and check its condition, access, runoff, gutters and nearby landscaping. Moss, lichen, loose tile, brittle shingles or an active leak may need a different plan, or a roofer's opinion, before cleaning begins.

Asphalt shingles need a gentle method. Industry guidance calls for gently applying a manufacturer-appropriate cleaning solution and avoiding scrubbing or power washing that can loosen granules. We use low-pressure application and follow the applicable roof and product instructions for dwell time and rinsing. Tile and metal roofs are assessed separately because the material, coating, fasteners and condition change the right method.

We plan the work area before applying chemistry. That includes controlled application, landscaping pre-wetting and rinsing. Some dead growth releases gradually after treatment, and heavy moss or lichen may not disappear in one visit without risking the roof surface.

How long the result lasts depends on shade, tree cover, moisture and roof material. The written estimate states the method, included areas and any applicable spot-clean coverage.

"This was the second time we used Krystal Klean, the first was for pavers and this time was a tile roof softwash. Both services were excellent and the team members were super to work with. Last time we had our roof done, by another company, we had a ton of plant damage, this time the process that Krystal Klean used had no damage. We appreciate and recommend KK to anyone looking for these services."

They are very personable, detail oriented, have very competitive pricing and I will be using them regularly. Always glad to support a good local business. Highly recommended."

Frequently Asked Questions

Will soft washing damage my shingles?
We avoid scrubbing or power washing asphalt shingles. ARMA advises gently applying an appropriate cleaning solution and consulting the shingle manufacturer about approved chemicals and methods. We inspect the roof first and flag loose, brittle or damaged areas.
How long will the roof stay clean?
Shade, tree cover, moisture, roof material and the type of growth all affect how quickly staining returns. We explain realistic expectations after seeing the roof. Any spot-clean coverage will be stated in the written proposal.
Can you clean a tile roof?
Yes. We first check the tile type, coating, age, cracks and mortar, then choose the chemistry and pressure the condition can handle.
What do you need to quote roof cleaning?
Send the address and photos showing the roof material, pitch, staining, access, gutters and landscaping. We inspect in person when condition or access is unclear.
How do I know if my roof needs cleaning?
Black streaks often indicate algae discoloration, while green growth or crusty spots may be moss or lichen. Cleaning can improve appearance, but leaks, loose tile, brittle shingles and damaged flashing belong with a roofer. We do not estimate remaining roof life from staining.
What affects the price of a roof cleaning?
Roof area, material, pitch, height, access, growth, runoff and landscaping all affect the scope. We choose the application and rinse method for the specific roof.
Will cleaning affect my roof warranty?
Warranty terms vary by manufacturer and roof product. We follow applicable care guidance and avoid power washing asphalt shingles. If warranty coverage is a concern, send us the roof-product information and we will state the proposed method in writing.
