Roof Cleaning

Step-by-Step Guide to Roof Cleaning with Softwash

At Legacy Softwash, we use a gentle, low-pressure soft washing technique to clean your roof safely and effectively. Unlike traditional pressure washing, which can cause damage, our method is designed to preserve your roof while allowing Mother Nature to take care of the grime removal, ensuring no future damage. Here's how the process works:

​

Step 1: Initial Inspection and Assessment
Before we begin, our team performs a thorough inspection of your roof. We assess the type of material, the level of buildup, and any areas needing special attention. This helps us determine the best cleaning solution and approach to ensure optimal results.

​

Step 2: Preparation and Safety Measures
Safety is our top priority. We secure the necessary equipment and take precautions to protect your property. Our team uses fall protection gear, carefully sets up ladders, and covers surrounding plants or landscaping to shield them from the cleaning solution.

​

Step 3: Application of Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solution
We apply a specialized eco-friendly cleaning solution to the roof. This solution is designed to break down algae, moss, lichen, and other organic growths at the root. It is applied using a low-pressure spray, which ensures there is no damage to the shingles or tiles. We let the solution sit for a specific amount of time to effectively loosen the growths.

​

Step 4: Soft Washing Process
Once the cleaning solution has had time to work, we gently rinse the roof with low-pressure water, ensuring that no pressure is applied directly to the surface. This helps remove loose debris and wash away any remaining cleaner without damaging the roof material.

​

Step 5: Letting Nature Take Its Course
After the soft wash, we allow the eco-friendly solution to continue working over time. As rainwater and natural elements interact with the roof, the remaining algae, moss, and stains will gradually be washed away. This process ensures no harm is done to the roofing materials, and it allows Mother Nature to do the heavy lifting, providing a long-term, sustainable clean.

​

Step 6: Clean-Up and Final Inspection
After the cleaning, we carefully remove any protective covers around your landscaping and clean up the equipment. We conduct a final inspection to ensure everything looks great, and we discuss any necessary follow-up care to keep your roof in top condition.

​

Step 7: Long-Term Benefits
By choosing our soft washing service, you’ll enjoy the benefit of a roof that is cleaned safely without the risk of damage. The natural removal process ensures that your roof remains intact and will continue to look great for years to come. Regular maintenance helps extend the lifespan of your roof, protecting it from harmful buildup and keeping your home looking its best.
