Our soft wash roof treatment removes moss, algae, and dark streaking while reducing the risk of damage to roofing materials. It helps protect your home, improve appearance, and support longer roof life.
At Duboff Exterior Cleaning, we provide safe and effective roof cleaning using a proven soft wash system. Unlike aggressive high-pressure washing, which can damage shingles, tiles, and other roofing materials, soft washing relies on low-pressure water and biodegradable cleaning solutions to break down and remove organic buildup such as moss, algae, lichen, mildew, and dirt.
Over time, these contaminants can affect both the appearance and condition of the roof. Black streaks, green patches, and moss growth do more than make the surface look neglected — they can trap moisture, contribute to premature wear, and increase the risk of expensive repairs if left untreated.
Here’s what you can expect from our roof cleaning service:
Roof surfaces can be damaged by aggressive cleaning, especially asphalt shingles, cedar shake, and older roofing materials. High pressure can dislodge protective granules, force water into vulnerable areas, and shorten the life of the roof. Our soft wash approach is selected to remove organic growth while reducing the risk of surface damage.

After cleaning, regular roof maintenance can help reduce regrowth and extend the results. Homes in damp, shaded, or tree-covered areas may benefit from more frequent inspections or moss prevention treatments. Keeping the roof clear can help support drainage, appearance, and long-term roof performance.
Our team is trained to deliver thorough, professional results while protecting your home’s structure, roofing materials, and surrounding property.
Many homeowners schedule roof cleaning together with gutter cleaning or siding cleaning to improve both roof performance and overall exterior appearance.
Safe roof cleaning that helps protect appearance and long-term performance.
In many cases, yes. Over time, moss, algae, mold, and dirt can build up on the roof, affecting both appearance and long-term condition. Regular cleaning helps reduce buildup and supports longer roof life.
Soft washing uses low-pressure water combined with eco-friendly cleaning solutions to gently remove harmful growth and debris. It is a lower-impact alternative to pressure washing and is designed to reduce the risk of damage to roofing materials.
We recommend cleaning your roof every 2 to 3 years. However, if your home is in a shaded or damp area, more frequent cleaning might be needed. Visible black streaks or green patches mean it’s time.
Our soft wash process is designed to clean roofing materials effectively while reducing the risk of damage. We do not use high pressure on roofs.
Most residential roof cleanings are completed within 2 to 4 hours, depending on the size of the roof and how dirty it is.
We use biodegradable cleaning solutions selected to be safer for surrounding landscaping and outdoor areas, and we take steps to rinse and protect nearby surfaces during the process.
