Roof soft washing in Grayson, what to expect

Pressure washing a roof voids the warranty and shortens shingle life. Soft washing is the only manufacturer-approved method to remove the streaks, and unlike pressure washing it actually kills the organism so it doesn't come back in 6 months.

Grayson roofs are big, often 3,000-5,000 sq ft of asphalt shingles, sometimes with multiple roof planes and dormers. North-facing slopes streak first because they hold moisture longer. The streaks are gloeocapsa magma, a living algae that feeds on the limestone filler in shingles. Soft wash kills it at the root. We never walk on a Grayson roof, reach setup from a ladder protects the shingles and the granules.
