Roof soft washing in Loganville, 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.

Walton County's humidity is the main reason your roof streaks black. The dark stains are a living algae called gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads. North-facing slopes show it first because they stay damp longer. Pressure-washing a roof voids the warranty and shortens shingle life. Soft wash is the only correct method, and it actually kills the algae so the streaks don't come back in six months.
