Roof Cleaning for Bloomfield Hills homes

Black streaks on a roof are a type of algae, Gloeocapsa magma, and they grow fastest on north facing slopes that stay shaded and damp. Bloomfield Hills has a lot of both: tall trees close to the house and roofs with steep pitches and many valleys. On large homes the streaks are visible from the street long before the shingles are worn. A soft wash roof treatment kills the algae at the root without the high pressure that knocks granules off the shingles, which is the approach asphalt shingle manufacturers recommend over pressure washing.

  • North and east facing slopes under oak canopy streak first.
  • Moss collects where branches overhang and in valleys that hold debris.
  • Slate and cedar shake roofs on some older estates need a different approach than asphalt shingles.

Roof Cleaning questions from Bloomfield Hills

How much does roof cleaning cost in Bloomfield Hills?
It depends on roof size, pitch and growth. Most Bloomfield Hills roofs can be measured from satellite.
Do you clean slate or cedar shake roofs in Bloomfield Hills?
Our roof soft wash is designed for asphalt shingles. Slate, tile and cedar shake each need a different approach, so tell us your roof type when you ask for a quote and we will talk through it before scheduling.
Will roof cleaning hurt the landscaping around a Bloomfield Hills home?
We pre wet and rinse plantings below the roof line, and the solution is applied at low pressure so it stays on the roof. Gutters and downspouts carry the rinse water, so we check where they drain before we start.
How long does a roof stay clean after a soft wash?
Because the treatment kills the algae instead of just rinsing the surface, streaks usually take years to return. Heavily shaded roofs will see growth sooner than sunny ones.
Does roof cleaning help a Bloomfield Hills home sell?
Black streaks make a roof look older than it is, and on a large Bloomfield Hills home the roof is a big part of the view from the street. Removing them before listing photos is a common step.
