Roof Cleaning by Drone

Black streaks on a roof are usually algae (Gloeocapsa magma). It's mostly a looks problem, but it spreads and makes a roof look older than it is. We remove it with a low-pressure treatment, so the shingles keep their granules and nobody walks your roof.

Why do it from the air?

Pressure washing can strip the protective granules off shingles, and walking a roof risks both the crew and the roof. Soft-washing by drone treats the algae with a cleaning solution and rinses gently from above.

  1. Inspect and Quote

    We walk your surfaces, height and landscaping, then give you a written scope and price.

  2. Apply the Soft-Wash

    The drone applies a cleaning solution matched to your surfaces at low pressure.

  3. Rinse From the Top Down

    Controlled passes from above carry the grime away without blasting anything.

  4. Walk It With You

    We check the result together before we leave and fix anything right then.

Roof Cleaning Questions

Why not pressure wash the roof?

High pressure can strip the protective granules off shingles and shorten the roof's life. Soft-washing kills the algae with a cleaning solution and rinses at low pressure.

Does anyone walk on my roof?

No. The drone does the work from the air, which is safer for our crew and for your shingles.

How long will it stay clean?

It depends on shade, humidity and nearby trees. We'll tell you what to expect for your roof after the walkthrough.
