Roof cleaning pulls the black streaks off your shingles without stripping the granules. Those streaks are a living algae, so the fix is the right solution rather than force. We use the soft wash method on every roof. That means low pressure water plus detergents that kill mold, mildew and algae at the root.
We clean shingle, tile and metal roofs for homes and businesses across the San Antonio to Austin corridor. Estimates are free and services start at $299. Financing is available on larger projects. Call or text (512) 905-8038 to get on the schedule.

Those dark stripes on your roof are a blue green algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It moves through the air and settles on shingles. The algae grows a dark sheath to shield itself from the sun. That sheath is the streak you see from the driveway.
Moss and lichen show up on the shaded north facing slopes. Those planes get less direct sun and stay damp longer after rain. Moss can lift the leading edge of a shingle, which raises the blow off risk in wind. Lichen grips down into the granule layer, so it takes solution and dwell time to break down.
Overhanging live oaks add shade and drop debris that holds moisture on the shingles. Streaking also changes how the whole house looks from the street. Some insurers now review homes from aerial photos instead of a site visit. A roof heavy with streaks can read as worn in those images.
The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association is direct about this. Its published guidance says to never use a pressure washer on an asphalt shingle roof. High pressure causes granule loss and early failure of the roof system. The same guidance warns against brushes and brooms, because that friction loosens granules.
Granules matter more than most homeowners think. They are the gritty top layer that shields the asphalt underneath from sun and weather. Once enough of them wash into the gutter, the shingle ages faster. A roof wash should leave every one of them in place.
Tile and metal roofs have their own reasons to skip high pressure. Force can crack a concrete tile or push water between tiles into the underlayment. On metal, it can mark the finish that holds off rust. Low pressure with the right solution handles all three roof types.
Every roof starts with a look at the slope, the growth and what sits under the eaves. We wet down the plants and beds below the roofline before anything else. Then the cleaning solution goes on at low pressure and gets time to work.
The streaks fade while the solution sits, and a gentle rinse carries the dead growth off. Heavy moss keeps loosening over the following weeks and clears with rain and wind. Booking gutter cleaning with the roof makes sense, since whatever comes off the shingles lands in the gutters.
Roof work pairs naturally with house washing, because rinse water runs down the walls anyway. Before a house goes on the market, the roof and the siding usually need the same attention. Call or text (512) 905-8038 for a price. We can quote the roof alone or with the rest of the exterior.
