Roof Washing with Pura Softwash

Why Softwashing?

Traditional Pressure Washing: Pressure washing relies on high-pressure water, typically around 3500 psi, to remove dirt and grime from surfaces. While this method can effectively clean surfaces quickly, it often causes more harm than good. High-pressure water can damage delicate roofing materials, strip protective coatings, and even cause water intrusion. Additionally, pressure washing relies solely on physical agitation to remove organic growths like algae and lichens, leaving the roots intact. These roots can quickly regrow, meaning the problem returns in a matter of months.

Pura Softwash: Our softwashing technique uses low-pressure water, between 150-300 psi, combined with specially formulated, biodegradable cleaning solutions. This method is gentle on surfaces yet incredibly effective at removing dirt, grime, and organic growths. By targeting and eliminating the roots of algae and lichens, we provide a clean that lasts up to five times longer than traditional pressure washing. This thorough sanitization process means you won’t have to deal with the rapid regrowth of these unsightly and damaging organisms.

Roof-Specific Softwashing Benefits

Roofs are particularly vulnerable to the growth of algae, moss, and lichens, which can cause significant damage if left untreated. Our roof washing service offers unique advantages that make it the ideal choice for maintaining the health and appearance of your roof. Softwash is manufacturer recommended roof maintenance for many roofing types such as asphalt shingles.

No Need for Ladders

One of the key benefits of our softwashing technique is that it often eliminates the need for workers to use ladders. Traditional pressure washing typically requires technicians to climb up and position themselves on ladders to effectively clean the roof. This process introduces several risks:

• Safety Risks: Climbing ladders increases the risk of falls and injuries, leading to potential liability issues for homeowners and service providers alike.
• Property Damage: Placing ladders on the ground can damage landscaping, gutters, and other structures around your home.

With Pura Softwash, our advanced equipment allows us to clean your roof from the ground level, significantly reducing these risks. This not only enhances safety but also minimizes any potential damage to your property.

Gentle on Roofing Materials

High-pressure washing can be too harsh for many roofing materials, causing damage to shingles, tiles, and protective coatings. Our low-pressure softwashing technique is safe for all types of roofing materials, including:

• Asphalt Shingles
• Tile Roofs
• Metal Roofs
• Wood Shakes
• Slate Roofs

By using a gentler approach, we ensure that your roof remains intact and undamaged while effectively removing all contaminants.

Why Softwashing is the Superior Choice

The key to the effectiveness of softwashing lies in its ability to not just clean but sanitize surfaces. By eliminating the roots of organic growths, softwashing prevents the rapid regrowth that often follows pressure washing. Here’s a closer look at why softwashing is the superior choice for roof washing:

Deep Sanitization

Softwashing doesn’t just remove surface-level dirt and contaminants; it sanitizes the entire surface. The cleaning solutions we use penetrate deep into the pores of the material, killing algae, lichens, mold, and mildew at their roots. This thorough sanitization ensures that your roof stays cleaner for much longer.

Protection from Damage

High-pressure water can erode and damage roofing materials, especially if they are already compromised by weathering or previous cleaning attempts. Softwashing, on the other hand, uses low-pressure water that gently cleans without causing any damage. This makes it an ideal choice for older homes or those with delicate materials.

Cost-Effective

While the initial cost of softwashing may be similar to or slightly higher than pressure washing, the long-lasting results make it a more cost-effective option in the long run. With fewer cleanings needed, you save money and time, all while enjoying a beautifully clean roof.
