Roof Treatment
Rochester Hills
Concentrated soft wash solution with specialized surfactants eliminates black algae streaks and moss from your roof — no scraping, no pressure washing, no stepping on your shingles. Ever.
Destroying Your Roof
Most Rochester Hills homeowners think the black streaks on their roof are just dirt. They’re not — and ignoring them is expensive.
The black streaks you see running down your roof shingles are caused by Gloeocapsa magma — a type of algae that’s spreading across Michigan roofs at an accelerating rate.
This algae feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. As it eats through the granule layer it exposes the underlying asphalt to UV damage, moisture retention and accelerated breakdown. A roof that should last 25–30 years can lose a decade of life from untreated algae growth.
Michigan’s conditions make Rochester Hills roofs especially vulnerable: humid summers, frequent spring rain, and mature tree canopy shading north-facing and west-facing slopes where algae thrives. Once established, it spreads to adjacent shingles and eventually covers the entire roof.
Our concentrated soft wash solution with specialized surfactants kills the algae colony at the root — not just removes visible staining. The roof surface is treated and results last significantly longer than any scraping or pressure-based method.
Damage Your Roof
Not all roof cleaning is equal. Here’s what separates a professional treatment from methods that void your warranty.
- ❌Pressure washing shingles — strips granules, voids manufacturer warranty
- ❌Scraping or scrubbing — physical abrasion damages shingle surface
- ❌Walking on the roof to clean — foot traffic breaks shingle bonds and causes hidden damage
- ❌Bleach-only solutions without surfactants — runs off too fast to kill algae at the root
- ❌DIY power washing — one wrong angle and you’re looking at a new roof
- ✅Concentrated soft wash solution with specialized surfactants — clings to the surface and kills algae at the root
- ✅Zero pressure applied to shingles — solution does all the work
- ✅Applied from the gutterline using a ladder — we never step on your roof
- ✅Manufacturer-approved method — safe for all asphalt shingle brands
- ✅Results last significantly longer than any scraping or pressure method
