Roof Washing in Saline, MI
Safe, low-pressure roof cleaning that eliminates black streaks, moss, and algae without damaging your shingles or voiding your warranty.
Professional Roof Washing in Saline, MI
Those ugly black streaks on your roof aren't just dirt — they're Gloeocapsa magma, a type of algae that feeds on the limestone in your shingles. Left untreated, this algae growth can shorten your roof's lifespan by years and significantly reduce your home's curb appeal. TPP Soft Wash provides professional roof washing that eliminates this growth safely and effectively.
We exclusively use soft washing techniques for roof cleaning — never high-pressure washing. High pressure can damage shingles, void warranties, and force water under your roofing materials. Our soft wash method uses specialized, manufacturer-approved cleaning solutions applied at low pressure to kill algae, moss, and lichen at the root while preserving your shingles' integrity.
Roof cleaning is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve your home's appearance and extend the life of your roofing system. A professional roof wash from TPP Soft Wash can make your roof look years younger at a fraction of the cost of replacement.
We serve homeowners throughout Saline, Ann Arbor, and Washtenaw County. Our technicians are trained in safe roof cleaning practices and take every precaution to protect your property, landscaping, and gutters during the process.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will roof washing void my shingle warranty?
No. In fact, most shingle manufacturers recommend soft washing as the approved cleaning method. High-pressure washing can void warranties, which is why we exclusively use the soft wash technique recommended by companies like GAF, CertainTeed, and Owens Corning.
What are the black streaks on my roof?
The black streaks are caused by Gloeocapsa magma, a type of blue-green algae that thrives in humid climates like Michigan's. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads across your roof over time.
How long do roof washing results last?
Our soft wash treatment kills algae at the root, so results typically last 2-3 years or longer. The cleaning solution continues to inhibit regrowth for months after application.
Can you clean my gutters too?
Yes! We offer gutter cleaning and exterior gutter brightening as add-on services. Clean gutters complement a freshly washed roof and ensure proper water drainage from your home.
