The Benefits
Why Roof Cleaning from Florida Southern?
Soft-Wash Method
We use low-pressure soft washing with EPA-safe treatments to kill algae and mold without voiding your roof warranty.
Extends Roof Life
Algae and lichen hold moisture against your roofing material, accelerating deterioration. Regular cleaning adds years to your roof.
Improves Curb Appeal
A clean roof dramatically improves the appearance of your home and can increase resale value.
Prevents Damage
Left untreated, biological growth leads to premature shingle degradation, granule loss, and potential structural moisture damage.

Common Questions
Roof Cleaning FAQs
Will roof cleaning damage my shingles?
Our soft-wash method uses low pressure and EPA-approved treatments that are safe for all roofing types. High-pressure washing, which we don't use, can damage shingles.
How long do results last?
Typically 2–4 years in Florida's humid climate. We offer preventative treatments that extend the clean appearance longer.
Do you clean tile and metal roofs as well?
Yes. We clean all roofing types including asphalt shingles, clay tile, concrete tile, and metal roofs.
