Get Rid of the Black Stains and Moss Growing on Your Roof with a Superior Roof Cleaning

No Harsh Chemicals. No Rough Scrubbing. Instant Results.
We Can Make Your Roof Look Like New Again in Just Minutes

Have you noticed black streaks on your roof? Believe it or not, those marks are not dirt. The black stains are actually algae that is feeding on the shingles. The algae may start as a single spot, but if left untreated, it can grow into large masses that look like streaks. The algae are slowly deteriorating your shingles. Over time, this can lead to water issues. So you want to make sure you take care of these pesky marks before they cause problems with a good roof cleaning.

While you may be tempted to take clean your roof yourself, it is a job that is best left to the professionals. You don’t want to simply power wash the streaks away, as power washing can do more harm. Using too high of a PSI or the wrong technique, and you can damage the shingles.

We use a soft, gentle roof cleaning process instantly removes those unsightly streaks, as well as patches of moss, in just minutes – the image on this page shows the dramatic difference between the clean section of roof on the right and the yet to be tackled section of the roof on the left.

Superior Seamless did a fantastic job shampooing the roof. I was concerned because it is an old roof and the moss and mildew was built up. The crew was very professional and I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to install gutters or have their roof cleaned. Donna C.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes those ugly roof stains?2018-02-21T14:44:16-05:00

Most roof stains are caused by the growth of algae, lichen colonies or moss that feed on organic matter frequently found on roof surfaces. The portions of a roof that receive the least amount of sunlight are more likely to have roof stains. This explains why some homes may have roof stains only on one side of the roof, typically the northern and/or western exposure or in heavily shaded areas.

Will the process harm my plantings around the home?2018-02-21T14:51:31-05:00

No. Our products will not harm any vegetation or surfaces around your home.

Do you use high pressure powerwashing on the roof?2018-02-21T14:52:31-05:00

NEVER! High pressure powerwashing can be very damaging to the shingles. Plus, it’s not effective.

How long does a roof cleaning typically last?2024-01-30T10:05:04-05:00

It’s impossible to tell how long it will take for a new roof to get algae stains, the same holds true for a roof cleaned by our professionals. We give our customers a written warranty against any roof staining for a period of one year. We also offer an annual roof maintenance program.

Can I just use bleach on my shingles?2018-02-21T14:54:34-05:00

Yes, but the results can be disastrous. Bleach can damage vegetation and dry out your shingles. Any results that the homeowner sees are temporary and the staining is back within a few short months.

What if i just leave algae stains on the roof?2018-02-21T14:56:32-05:00

Algae is a living, growing organism which left untreated, can cover your entire roof. A roof covered in algae absorbs heat and results in a superheated attic, raising cooling costs. Since algae feeds off the organic material in your shingles, left untreated, your roof will require costly, premature replacement.
