Professional Roof Cleaning Services
Your roof accounts for up to 40% of your property’s visible exterior. When it becomes covered in dark, ugly streaks, green moss, or thick lichens, it does more than just ruin your curb appeal—it actively damages your property. Those dark stains are not just dirt; they are caused by a resilient strain of blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. Left untreated, this organic growth feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and traps moisture on commercial membranes, leading to premature aging and costly structural failure.
At Excellent Roofing, we provide professional, factory-approved roof cleaning services designed to instantly revitalize your property and extend the life of your roofing system. Backed by over 20 years of local expertise, we serve both residential and commercial clients across Tennessee, Mississippi, and Arkansas with safe, highly effective cleaning methods.

The Danger of High-Pressure Washing:
Why "Soft Washing" is Mandatory
The most common mistake property owners make is hiring an uncertified handyman or pressure-washing company that blasts the roof with high-pressure water.
Never let anyone use a standard pressure washer on your roof. High pressure instantly rips the protective mineral granules off asphalt shingles, punctures single-ply commercial membranes, and shatters clay or concrete tiles. This destructive process destroys your roof’s weather resistance and completely voids your manufacturer’s structural warranty.
The Excellent Roofing Solution: Certified Soft Washing
We exclusively utilize a specialized Soft Wash System. This low-pressure technique uses a high-volume, eco-friendly chemical solution applied at a pressure no stronger than a standard garden hose. The specialized treatment targets the root of the problem:
Kills the Algae at the Source:
Protects the Structural Integrity:
Longer-Lasting Clean:
Residential Roof Cleaning: Instantly Revitalizing Your Home
For homeowners, a stained roof can make an otherwise beautiful home look aged, neglected, and drastically lower its market value. If you are preparing to sell your home or trying to satisfy strict HOA guidelines, our professional soft-washing service is an incredibly cost-effective alternative to a premature roof replacement.
When Excellent Roofing sanitizes your residential roof, you receive vital benefits:
Restored Curb Appeal:
Watch decades of black streaks, mold, and moss disappear in a single afternoon, making your roof look brand new again.
Lower Cooling Bills:
Those dark black algae streaks absorb intense heat from the Mid-South sun, baking your attic space and driving up your air conditioning costs. Cleaning the roof restores its natural reflective properties, keeping your home cooler and lowering energy overhead.
Maximum Lifespan:
Removing moisture-trapping moss prevents rot from forming along your roof deck, ensuring you get the full lifetime value out of your asphalt shingle, metal, or tile roof.
Commercial Roof Cleaning:
Performance, Safety & Liability Control
For commercial property managers, industrial facilities, and retail centers, roof maintenance is a matter of facility preservation and risk management.
Large flat or low-slope commercial roofs (such as TPO, EPDM, or PVC membranes) are highly vulnerable to environmental pollutants, bird droppings, grease buildup, and biological growth.
Restoring "Cool Roof" Reflectivity:
White commercial single-ply membranes are engineered to reflect solar energy. When they become caked in dark organic matter and industrial soot, they lose their reflectivity, causing indoor facility temperatures to skyrocket and forcing HVAC units to work overtime.
Preventing Membrane Degradation:
Accumulated bird droppings, algae, and ponding silt contain acidic compounds that can slowly eat through rubber and plastic membranes, causing microscopic fractures and catastrophic interior leaks.
Safe & EPA-Compliant Operations:
Our commercial teams ensure all cleaning solutions are safely managed, adhering to local environmental codes and protecting your facility’s surrounding landscaping and storm drainage paths.
