Exterior cleaning like all industries has evolved with advancement in technology. Where pressure washing used to be the standard for all surfaces those high pressures can also damage sensitive finishes, and should NEVER BE USED TO CLEAN A ROOF!! Enter Soft Wash! Soft Wash is the chemical application of formulated solutions via a low pressure electric pump. Instantly restoring the roof to a new appearance while preserving and extending your roof life.

Moisture and humidity cause the growth of a bacteria called Gloeocapsa magma that causes a dark streaky appearance on your roof. Left untreated this bacteria feeds upon the limestone fillers in traditional shingles degrading them from the inside out. This causes your roof life to shorten drastically by causing granule loss and deterioration. It also provides a breeding ground for moss, mold, mildew, and algae which bring their own issues in roof failure and detract from your homes appearance.
Beyond extending your roof life and saving you from a large replacement cost, having your roof cleaned with Aquastream Soft Wash can also save you money in energy costs. As the bacteria and turns your roof to a black darker surface it attracts and absorbs more heat. (Just like cutting grass in a black shirt versus a white shirt) This additional heat radiates into the attic and ultimately raises the temperature inside your home creating unnecessary workload on your AC system.
