What Are the Black Streaks on Your Roof?
Those unsightly black streaks on your North Georgia home aren't just "dirt"—it’s a living organism called Gloeocapsa Magma. This hardy algae feeds on the limestone filler in your shingles, causing them to become brittle and lose their ability to reflect heat.
At Pressure Goat, we don't "blast" the algae away. We treat your roof like a delicate surface, using a dedicated Soft Wash system that kills the algae at the root.
The Pressure Goat Roof Soft-Wash System
Step 1: Landscape Saturation: We heavily pre-wet all grass, shrubs, and flowers surrounding your home and use "plant-wash" neutralizers to ensure your greenery stays safe.
Step 2: Low-Pressure Chemical Application: We apply a specialized cleaning solution at roughly the same pressure as a garden hose.
Step 3: Total Kill Infusion: Our solution dwells on the surface, neutralizing 100% of algae, moss, and lichen spores.
Atlanta Roof Cleaning FAQs
Does roof cleaning improve curb appeal? Absolutely. A clean roof can make an older home look brand new, which is vital for homeowners in areas like Alpharetta or Buckhead looking to maintain property value.
Will you use a pressure washer on my shingles? Never. High pressure can strip the granules off your shingles and void your manufacturer's warranty. We only use low-pressure soft-washing.
How long does a roof wash last? Our treatment kills the algae completely. In the humid Atlanta climate, a professional soft-wash typically keeps a roof clean for 3 to 5 years.
