We specialize in soft wash roof cleaning and never use high-pressure methods on shingles. We have helped over 100 homeowners get insurance policies reinstated after roof algae and moss violations. Our cleaning solutions are biodegradable and safe for Bay Area storm drains, landscaping, and waterways under California environmental regulations. We handle residential and commercial work under one roof, and we have operated locally since 2014. What soft washing is: soft washing combines low water pressure with biodegradable cleaning solutions to remove algae, mold, mildew, moss, lichen, and organic staining from roofs, siding, stucco, and other delicate surfaces. Roofing manufacturers recommend it for asphalt shingle, cedar shake, and slate, and it does not void roofing warranties the way high-pressure washing can. Driveways, walkways, patios, and pavers take controlled high pressure with a surface-cleaner attachment instead. Why roof cleaning matters for insurance: many Bay Area carriers now require homeowners to keep roofs free of algae and moss, and non-compliance can trigger policy non-renewal or cancellation. We have helped more than 100 homeowners satisfy those requirements and get policies reinstated. We document every visit with section-by-section before and after photos that serve as a record for insurers, HOAs, and future sale. How often roofs need cleaning: most Bay Area roofs benefit from service every two to three years, driven by marine moisture, shaded hillside lots, and organic debris from oak and eucalyptus canopy. Homes on shaded, north-facing, or high-moisture microclimates often need annual service. Black streaking on asphalt shingles is gloeocapsa magma, a cyanobacteria that feeds on limestone filler in the shingle and spreads by airborne spore.
