What Does Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Achieve? Roof Cleaning Monmouth

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning - No Roof Damage or Harsh Chemicals...

Up until recently, roof cleaners employed the use of harsh chemicals and high-pressure power washers to blast algae, moss, water stains and built-up grime from roofs. However, today we know this process is very harmful to the roof – not to mention the chemicals used, such as bleach, can harm the surrounding vegetation. In fact, the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association cautions people from using high pressure washing systems because they can damage asphalt roofing and should not be used for the purpose of removing algae and dirt. Instead, it’s better to use a soft wash roof cleaning approach.

Check out the many advantages to soft wash roof cleaning for your home or business:

• Increased property value
• Longer roof life span
• Better curb appeal
• Safe on most siding materials
• Uses less water than traditional power washing, leading to money and natural resources savings
• Provides a more thorough cleaning than traditional methods

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning won’t cause the singles to break apart...

The top reason to use soft wash roof cleaning is to keep damage from occurring to your roof. You wouldn’t want shingles to come loose and fall off or the tiles to break apart. Secondly, your bushes, gardens and shrubs directly below the roof will not suffer from the high-pressure run-off that comes with traditional power washing methods. With the use of green cleaning solutions and low-pressure application, the surrounding vegetation is safe.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning - Safe without high pressure...

So how does it work? Rather than use a more abrasive pressure washing technique, your chosen exterior washing company should offer this service for peace of mind. The process involves the application of a mixture of safe cleaners and warm water to the roof yet without high pressure and harmful chemicals like bleach. Clearview Washing, for instance, uses only the most eco-friendly cleaners possible to eliminate those unsightly black streaks, mold and mildew buildup, sap and more from the roof in a safe and effective manner. Thanks to this special roof cleaning process, the structure is protected through the use of a biodegradable roof detergent applied from a battery-powered sprayer using about half the pressure of a simple garden hose. The results are amazing, and last four times longer than standard pressure roof cleaning methods.

Soft wash roof cleaning is an ideal way to remove the following:

The frequency with which you will have this procedure done will depend on several factors, such as the weather and climate where you live, and whether you have lots of trees overhanging the property.
