Why Tile Roofs Need a Gentle Touch

Tile roofs hold onto mildew and dirt in every curve and overlap, and over time that turns a warm red or terracotta roof a dull, blotchy brown. The tile underneath is usually fine. It just needs to be cleaned the right way.

The wrong way is a pressure washer. It can crack tiles, chip their finish and drive water up under the overlaps. On a job like this, the cleaning solution does the heavy lifting, and the rinse that follows is gentle enough to leave every tile where it was.

Shingle roofs get the same low-pressure approach, which keeps their protective granules in place.

How a Roof Wash Goes

1
Look It Over
We check the roof first and plan the wash around what we find.
2
Apply the Solution
We put the cleaner on at low pressure and give it time to work.
3
Rinse Gently
We rinse from the top down and off the eaves.
