Roof Washing for Washington Township homes
Why Washington Township properties need roof washing
The big lots and open, semi-rural setting mean homes here catch wind-driven dust and pollen across broad elevations, while parcels backing to Stony Creek and tree lines see heavier leaf drop and shaded algae growth.
Washington Township is where Macomb County starts to feel like the country. Out near Stony Creek Metropark and the Glacier Club, homes sit on larger, often wooded parcels with room to breathe, a welcome change from the dense subdivisions to the south. But those generous lots and the semi-rural setting bring their own exterior-cleaning realities.
With more open exposure, homes here catch wind-driven dust and pollen that settles across broad walls and rooflines, while parcels backing to tree lines and the creek deal with heavier leaf drop and shaded, algae-prone north walls. The bigger homes mean more square footage to keep clean and longer gutter runs to keep clear. A thorough soft wash and gutter cleaning keeps these country-edge properties crisp, no matter how much nature crowds in around them.

About our roof washing service
Those ugly black streaks running down your roof aren’t dirt — they’re a living algae called Gloeocapsa magma that feeds on asphalt shingles and thrives in Michigan’s humid, shaded conditions. Left alone, it spreads, traps heat, and shortens the life of your roof. Roof washing — also called roof cleaning — removes it completely and stops it from coming back.
We clean roofs the right way: a 100% low-pressure soft wash. Power washing a roof blasts the protective granules off your shingles and can void your manufacturer’s warranty. Instead, we apply a manufacturer-approved cleaning solution that kills the algae, moss, and lichen at the root, then gently rinse — no scrubbing, no granule loss, no damage.
The payoff is a roof that looks years younger, sheds heat better, and lasts longer — protecting one of the most expensive components of your home.
- Removes black streaks (Gloeocapsa magma algae), moss and lichen
- 100% low-pressure soft wash — never damages or voids shingle warranties
- Extends roof lifespan and improves energy efficiency
- Recommended by shingle manufacturers (ARMA) over pressure washing

Roof Washing in Washington Township — FAQs
What are the black streaks on my roof?
Those streaks are a hardy blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads across damp, shaded roofs — extremely common in humid Michigan summers.
Will pressure washing damage my roof?
Yes — high pressure strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles and can void your warranty. We only soft wash, which is the method the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends.
How often should a roof be cleaned?
Most metro Detroit roofs benefit from a soft wash every 2–4 years, depending on tree cover and shade. Catching it early prevents permanent staining and premature shingle aging.
