A clean roof isn’t just about curb appeal — algae, mildew, and debris can shorten your roof’s life. But when it comes to cleaning, not all methods are equal. Many Florida homeowners wonder if pressure washing is safe. The truth is, it can cause more harm than good.

The Problem with Pressure Washing

• Too Harsh for Shingles: Pressure washing strips protective granules, leaving shingles exposed to UV rays and moisture.
• Short-Term Fix: It blasts away surface stains, but often leaves algae roots behind — meaning stains return quickly.
• Risk of Damage: High pressure can force water under shingles, leading to leaks.

The Safe Alternative: Soft Washing

• Low Pressure, Big Results: Soft washing uses low-pressure water combined with a specialized cleaning solution.
• Preserves Shingles: No granule loss, no damage to the asphalt layer.
• Targets Algae at the Source: The solution kills algae and mildew so your roof stays clean longer.
