Roof Cleaning

Living in eastern Texas locations like Tyler comes with many benefits, like a moderate climate and easy access to the Gulf of Mexico. However, this climate is also conducive to a type of bacteria called Gloeocapsa Magma. You have likely seen its handiwork here in Tyler, TX. Drive through your local area and you’ll see many homes, churches, hotels, hospitals, and other buildings that have black streaks or stains running down them. Our residential roof cleaning from Tyler, TX, is extremely effective at removing black streaks on roofs and preserving the integrity of your home’s shingles.

These stains are caused by these bacteria as they literally eat the limestone right out of the shingles. If you have these streaks on your roof, it’s important to remember this — by the time these black streaks appear, Gloeocapsa Magma has already been at work, eating away at your shingles for months! When you first notice the black streaks on your roof, it’s important to have your roof SoftWashed right away because these bacteria, which are often accompanied by algae, lichens, and other contaminants, affect your roof in a number of negative ways.

If black streaks have invaded your roof, Poseidon Power Washing can help! Our SoftWash roof cleaning service is just what you need to remove bacteria, algae, and other organic stains. Rather than potentially causing serious damage to your shingles with high-pressure cleaning methods, our soft-pressure roof cleaning uses specially formulated cleaners and a low-pressure rinse to wash your roof. This method is safe for all roof types from tile to shingle and will help extend the lifespan of your roof at a fraction of the cost of roof replacement.
