Roof soft washing in Snellville, 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.

Snellville's tree-shaded lots mean roofs here often need attention sooner than the corridor average. North-facing slopes in Five Forks and Brushy Creek can show black gloeocapsa streaking by year 5 instead of year 8. The cause is shade plus humidity, algae thrives in damp, dark conditions. Soft wash kills the algae at the source. We never walk on the roof. Reach setup from a ladder keeps the shingles intact and the granules where they belong.
