Roof washing is the most technical exterior cleaning job we do. The wrong approach — especially high-pressure washing — can crack tiles, void manufacturer warranties and force water under your roof. Our soft wash process is safe for every roof type and delivers results that last years, not weeks.
Why Soft Wash — Not Pressure Wash
High-pressure washing a roof removes the protective granules from tiles, cracks older terracotta, and blasts water into areas that should stay dry. Soft washing uses low-pressure application of professional cleaning solutions that kill lichen, moss and algae at the root level. The results last significantly longer because we're eliminating the organism, not just washing off the visible surface growth.

- Concrete roof tiles
- Terracotta tiles
- Colorbond and metal roofing

Our Step-by-Step Process
- Safety setup: Harness, anchor points and edge protection before anyone goes on the roof
- Gutter and downpipe check: We clear any blockages first so rinse water can drain freely
- Garden and surface protection: All plants and surfaces below the roofline are protected before chemical application
- Soft wash application: Low-pressure application of biodegradable cleaning solution — specifically formulated to kill lichen, moss and algae
- Dwell time: Solution is left to work — this is what kills the organism at the root, not just removes the surface growth
- Rinse: Thorough low-pressure rinse from ridge to gutter
- Inspection: We walk you through the result and flag any tile damage or maintenance items we spotted during the job
