What are those black streaks on my roof?
The black roof streaks you see on your roof are algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. This alga spreads itself by unseen microscopic spores, just like a dandelion weed. Its spores are airborne and dormant until they land in an environment with moisture and a food source…and guess what that food source is? Your roof. Shingles that are made contain massive amounts of food that algae love to eat – that food is limestone. Yes, it is actually eating your roof. In most cases, the algae will take root on the north-facing roof surface or any area of the roof that is subject to limited sunlight. This lack of sunlight allows the roof surface to remain wet longer, providing a perfect environment for the algae to grow. The Gloeocaspa Magma will eventually turn into the green moss you see on a roof. We can safely remove the black streak and moss without a pressure washer. Pressure washing your roof will cause unrepairable damage and void your roof warranty. At WNC Pressure Washing our roof washing process is called soft washing to remove the unwanted mold and mildew.
What is soft wash roof washing?
The term “Soft Wash” or “No Pressure” roof wash became popular with reputable contractors as a way to separate themselves from the “fly-by-night” power washers trying to “stay busy”. Pressure cleaning has its place but, it is not on the roof, especially an asphalt roof! Everyone has heard the stories of washing the granules off the shingles, tabs broken or entire shingles torn off. With 3000 lbs. of pressure coming out of a small nozzle, it’s not hard to do. Soft wash roof cleaning is a low pressure (60psi) process used to remove algae, stains, mildew, and lichens. Roof washing is the process to remove dirt, algae, and moss from roofs. Roof washing can extend the duration of a roof’s ability to function. Algae and other types of build-up often form on parts of roofs that are shaded and can reduce a roof’s life expectancy. Roof cleaning may be accomplished with our roof wash solution.
Our roof washing process is highly effective on all types of roofing materials: asphalt, metal, tile, rubber, and new composite materials.
Why you should never use a pressure washer on your roof.
Pressure washing a roof will strip the granules from the roof and can take off years from your roof’s lifespan, forcing you to spend your hard earned money on a roof replacement. On top of costly damage, pressure washing your roof can even void your roof warranty.

Just a little bit of preventative maintenance, where your roof is concerned, can make a big difference in the wellness of your roof.

Because it’s a rarity had to share- Wife and I bought a house in Clyde at 4,000′ alt- some contractors have been out to look at decks, rocks, finish work and pressure washing – Getting an actual quote has been difficult – WNC Pressure Washing came out – gave me a quote same day- scheduled job 2 weeks out- came out in questionable weather and knocked out the 4,000 sq ft house with 2 sky decks and the roof and added more and gave us a fantastic finished product.
