Roof Cleaning · Greater Miami

Black streaks removed. Roof restored.

That dark staining across your shingles is not dirt. It is a living organism feeding on your roof in the Miami heat, and it is shortening the life of every shingle it touches. We remove it completely using a low pressure soft wash process that leaves your roof clean, your shingles intact, and your curb appeal back where it belongs.

The service

Built for Miami homes. Delivered in one visit.

Roof cleaning in Miami removes black algae streaks, moss and lichen from asphalt, tile and metal roofs using an ARMA-compliant low-pressure soft wash, never a pressure washer. In Miami's hurricane-exposed insurance climate, preserving granules matters as much as visible cleanliness. Most residential roofs are cleaned in a single 1-2 hour visit and stay clean 2-4 years.

What those black streaks actually are

Gloeocapsa magma is a cyanobacteria that travels airborne, lands on roofing surfaces, and forms the dark streaking running down asphalt shingles across South Florida. Not cosmetic. The organism produces a pigmented sheath that absorbs and retains heat. In Miami's year-round heat, where attic temperatures already push past 150 degrees, that added thermal load accelerates granule degradation and shortens shingle life in measurable ways. Left alone it spreads and attracts lichen and moss, which are structurally more invasive.

Tile roofs in Fort Lauderdale, Key Biscayne and Bal Harbour

Concrete and clay tile dominate the shaded lots of Key Biscayne, Bal Harbour and older Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods, and are the most obvious candidates for biological growth. Moss and algae colonize the textured surface aggressively, particularly on north slopes and under canopy. Pressure washing tile is not the answer, impact fractures the surface, destroys the slurry coat on concrete tile, and forces water under laps. Our soft wash reaches biological growth at the root without touching the tile with any meaningful force.

Metal roof staining in Aventura, Davie and Cutler Bay new-builds

Standing seam and metal panel roofing is standard in the modern construction corridors of Aventura, Davie and Cutler Bay, and it stains in ways that confuse homeowners who expect it to be maintenance free. Oxidation produces chalky discoloration. Biological growth produces dark streaking that runs along seams and collects at low points. Different problems that look similar from the curb. We identify the stain type before we touch the surface, because the chemistry that removes oxidation is not the chemistry you apply to biological growth.

Warranty and insurance implications

Every major shingle manufacturer, GAF, Owens Corning and CertainTeed, specifies that high-pressure washing voids the shingle warranty. The granule layer is the UV and impact barrier, and one pass with a surface cleaner or wand strips years of remaining life. In Miami's hurricane-exposed insurance market, where carriers scrutinise shingle condition at every renewal, granule loss can also complicate future wind claims. A properly executed soft wash preserves both the warranty and your claim position.

Crew certification and what $2M liability actually means

Roof work has the highest injury rate in exterior cleaning and the highest exposure for homeowners when an uncovered contractor goes down on their property. Our crews are trained specifically for pitched roof work, harnessed on anything above 6/12, anchor rigged on 8/12 and steeper. We carry $2M general liability, not the $1M policy most Miami operators hold to pass HOA gate checks. The difference matters when an incident happens on a 4,000 square foot roof next to a $1.2M home.

When we walk, and why that matters

Not every roof should be cleaned. Soft decking, plywood or OSB that has absorbed moisture and lost structural integrity, will not support crew weight safely, and cleaning the surface does nothing to address the underlying problem. We identify soft spots during the pre-job walk and flag them before work begins. Same for pitch and geometry that make safe anchor points impossible. When that is the case we say so before contract, not after something goes wrong.

Pre-listing roof cleans and the Miami real estate market

In a Miami market where buyers walk properties on a compressed timeline, roof condition shapes perception before the inspection report ever lands. Black streaked shingles read as neglect. They give buyers leverage on price and repair credits, and flag the property for closer inspection scrutiny. A clean roof, photographed in the listing package and visible on arrival, removes that friction. We work with listing agents and sellers directly and turn jobs on a timeline that fits the listing schedule.

Bundle with gutter cleaning, one mobilization

Roof and gutter cleaning are the same mobilization. Crew on the roof, ladder work already happening. Bundling both eliminates a second scheduling cycle and the awkward situation where a freshly cleaned roof sheds biological debris into gutters that have not been touched. We clear gutters of all organic material, flush the downspouts, confirm drainage before we pack out.

Roof Cleaning, answered.

The exact questions homeowners ask us every week.

How much does roof cleaning cost in Greater Miami?

+

Most single-family Miami roofs land between $395 and $1,295. Steeper pitches, tile substrates and larger square footage push toward the top of that range. You receive a fixed written quote after sending your address.

Can you pressure wash a roof?

+

No, and any contractor who does should be turned away. High pressure strips shingle granules, voids GAF and Owens Corning warranties, and in a wind and storm claim market like Miami gives adjusters cause to dispute future claims.

Is roof cleaning safe for shingles?

+

Soft wash cleaning is the method the shingle manufacturers themselves approve. It kills algae and lichen chemically at low pressure, without mechanically abrading the granule layer.

Will roof cleaning damage my landscaping?

+

No. Beds and turf within the runoff path are pre-saturated with plain water, then rinsed again after. Downspout outlets are flushed at the end of the visit.

How often does a Miami roof need cleaning?

+

Every 2-4 years for most homes. North slopes, tile roofs under canopy in Key Biscayne or Bal Harbour, and roofs bordering wooded lots trend toward the 2-year end.

Do you clean tile and metal roofs?

+

Yes. Concrete tile is common in Key Biscayne, Bal Harbour and older Fort Lauderdale; standing-seam metal is common in new Aventura, Davie and Cutler Bay builds. Both use the same chemistry with adjusted dwell times and rinse pressure.
