Residential & Commercial Soft Washing
Roof Soft Washing for Chestnuthill's Farmland Homes and Wooded Lots
Chestnuthill Township covers a wide mix of open farmhouse roofs around Brodheadsville and shaded, tree-lined roofs closer to Effort and Sun Valley. An open roof in full sun rarely grows algae, but a shaded roof under heavy tree cover streaks and moss over fast — and this township has plenty of both.
Signs a Chestnuthill Township roof is overdue for a soft wash:
- Black or dark streaking running down the shingles from ridge to eave
- Moss building up on shaded, north-facing roof slopes
- Granules collecting in the gutters after a hard rain
- Lichen crusting around vents, chimneys, or ridge caps
- Shingles that look dull, blotchy, or discolored compared to a neighbor's roof
- A roofline that stays damp long after the rest of the house has dried

Frequently Asked Questions
Roof Soft Washing Questions & Answers
What's the difference between soft washing a roof and pressure washing it?
Soft washing uses low water pressure combined with a cleaning solution to break down algae, moss, and lichen at the root, rather than blasting it off with force. A standard pressure washer can strip the protective granules off asphalt shingles and drive water up under them, which shortens the roof's life. Soft washing is the industry-standard method for roof cleaning specifically because it gets the same result without that risk.
What causes those black streaks on my roof?
Those streaks are almost always a airborne algae called Gloeocapsa magma, not dirt or soot. It spreads across shaded, north-facing roof slopes and feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles, which is why it shows up as dark streaking rather than an even discoloration. Left untreated, it spreads and can eventually affect how well the shingles reflect heat.
Is soft washing safe for my shingles, siding, and gutters?
Yes — that's the point of the method. The cleaning solution is applied at low pressure specifically so it won't lift shingle edges, force water under flashing, or strip protective coatings the way high-pressure equipment can. It's the safer option for the roof itself, not just a gentler-sounding alternative.
How often does a roof actually need to be soft washed?
Most roofs in this region benefit from a soft wash every 1–2 years, but it depends heavily on tree cover and sun exposure — a heavily shaded, north-facing roof under pine or hardwood cover can need attention more often than a roof that gets full sun most of the day.
How long does a soft wash roof cleaning take?
Most residential roofs take a few hours from setup to rinse, depending on roof size, pitch, and how much moss or algae buildup there is. Steeper or heavily wooded properties can take longer.
