Roof Washing

Does your roof have black streaks or other organic growth? Not only are these streaks an eye sore, but they can significantly reduce the life and effectiveness of your roof to block UV rays. Due to the humid climate, the most common organic growth seen throughout the Houston area is a species of bacteria, closely resembling algae, known as Gloeocapsa magma. This bacteria prematurely ages and rots your roof by retaining moisture and embedding itself on your roof in order to feed on the granules within the shingles.

At Fire Bros Pressure Washing, we clean your roof with a method known as “soft washing”. This is a low-pressure washing technique used in conjunction with a deep-cleaning solution. This safe, effective method will protect the integrity of your roof while eliminating unwanted black streaks and organic growth such as Gloeocapsa magma, moss, and lichen. This will not only add value and curb appeal to your home but will also save you thousands of dollars from prematurely replacing your roof.
