What Exactly Is Soft Roof Washing?
Roof soft washing is the process of removing moss, algae, lichen, and other debris from the roof surface. It helps in preventing roof deterioration and keeps the roof looking clean and new. There are two main methods of roof washing: power washing and soft washing.
Power washing uses high-powered water jets to remove debris, while soft washing uses a low-pressure stream of water and cleaning solution.
Soft wash roof washing meanwhile is considered to be a more gentle and effective method. It is important to note that roof washing should only be performed by a professional roof cleaning contractor in Oakland County.

How Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Works
Professional soft washing starts with having the right equipment, cleaning solutions, and trained staff. Our certified roof cleaners have access to the right cleaning solutions and equipment to effectively clean roofs. As a result, your roof will look like new again. Soft washing works like the following:
- With a ladder, an eco-friendly roof wash solution is placed on the roof (or siding) by spraying a surfactant, water, and Sodium Hypochlorite mix, which is pumped from a truck-mounted soft wash system.
- The solution is sprayed on the roof and siding with light water pressure.
- When the solution is on your roof or siding, it sits and breaks down organic material, dirt, and built-up staining.
- We may decide to apply a light brushing to the roof (or siding) to remove severe stains and bacteria buildup, as needed.
- Immediately after the biodegradable solution is applied to the roof and brushed, water is sprayed to remove the solution residue from your roof and siding safely.
If your roof is extremely dirty or has tough stains, we may spray the solution again and even a second time until the roof is cleaned completely.

Don’t Make the Mistake of Voiding Your Roof Warranty Coverage
The key to keeping your warranty valid is to follow the Asphalt Roof Manufacturers Association recommendations.
To avoid getting your warranty voided out, it is imperative that you use the manufacturer suggested cleaning techniques on your roof. The ARMA (Asphalt Roof Manufacturers Association) recommends using sodium hypochlorite mixed with water and surfactant surface cleaners as the only way of ensuring a top-quality clean that won’t cause damage to your roof. As a result, your warranty coverage won’t be voided out.
How often should a homeowner soft wash their roof? You should soft wash every 3 to 5 years, according to the ARMA recommendations. As a result, it will lengthen the life of your roof.
How long will soft washing my roof extend its life? When you get your roof soft washed, your roof’s life will extend up to 15 years, according to ARMA.

SPOTLESS Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Process – Safe. Effective. Reliable.
Our customers notice an immediate difference upon application of our eco-friendly solutions.
Here’s how it works…
- Tape and cover all electrical areas to protect them from damaging your entire electrical system.
- Connect collection bags to downspouts in order to capture runoff. The purpose of this is to eliminate standing cleaning solutions.
- Make sure to water-treat your lawn and shrubbery. This is done at the beginning of the cleaning process and continues all throughout the soft washing process. The purpose is to dilute chemical solutions and protect your foliage and lawn.
- Pre-treat your siding and roof with water to get rid of loose debris (mildew and moss).
- Choose the accurate mixture according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Activate the truck-mounted pump sprayer and put the cleaning solution at low pressure like you normally would with a regular yard hose.
- Allow the solution to sit for 15-20 minutes. The solutions will break up the moss, algae, and lichen – including roof discoloration and staining.
- Rinse off the solution. You’ll begin to see a difference in your siding and roof.
- Brush off moss, or lichen build-up from off the roof.
- Be sure to reapply the second coat cleaning solution in areas, as needed. To remove staining and stubborn moss buildup we hand brush gently so that it can trigger the roof’s own natural processes for removing heavy growth or stains.
- It’s clean-up time! We make sure your property is left in good condition – just like we first found it.
The benefits of cleaning solutions are long-lasting. They work for days, and even weeks after they’ve been applied!

Soft Washing vs. Pressure Washing
Never Pressure Wash Your Roof – It’s Not Effective or Safe!!!
Many homeowners pressure wash their roofs in an effort to remove dirt, debris, and stains. However, pressure washing can actually be quite dangerous and cause irreparable damage to your roof. The high-pressure stream of water can loosen or dislodge roofing tiles, compromising the roof’s ability to protect your home from the elements.
In addition, the water can seep under shingles and into the roof decking, causing mold and mildew to grow. Over time, this can degrade the roof decking and lead to leaks. Furthermore, pressure washing can remove the protective layer of granules from asphalt shingles, leaving them vulnerable to sun damage and premature aging. For these reasons, it is best to leave roof cleaning to the professionals.
Professionals use special equipment for roof cleaning and they follow a Certification process when it comes to roof cleaning. We suggest leaving this type of work to only those who have been authorized to do so.
Soft wash cleaning is an ideal solution for any home because it’s preventative maintenance that will keep your house intact and safe!
