Roof Cleaning & Black Streak Removal in Franklin, KY

Those black streaks are algae eating your shingles. A low-pressure treatment kills it without stripping the granules the way pressure does.

The black streaks down a shingle roof are algae — Gloeocapsa magma — eating the limestone filler in the shingles. A low-pressure bio-treatment kills it. Pressure washing a roof strips the granules off the shingles and takes years off it.

What that means around here

Almost every dark-streaked roof in this part of the country has the same cause, and it is not dirt. It is an algae that feeds on the limestone in the shingle, and left alone it shortens the life of the roof. It is treated, never pressure washed.

What the job covers

  • Asphalt and architectural shingle
  • No pressure on the roof surface at any point
  • Kills the growth rather than rinsing the top off it
  • $300 for a standard roof
