Milton · Why roofs here streak

Roof cleaning on Milton's shaded, wooded and estate roofs

Milton neighborhoods we serve, from the Milton page: Crabapple, White Columns, Freemanville, Birmingham, Sweet Apple, Bethany, Blue Valley, North Valley, Six Hundred Acre. The full method is on the roof cleaning page.

Wooded and pasture-edge lots

Tree-lined and pasture-edge properties shade roof slopes that grow algae faster, and open, wooded, and pasture-edge lots drop more debris into gutters. For these properties we typically recommend a 24-month roof soft wash cycle and three gutter clean-outs a year.

White Columns and the gated golf estates

Large gated homes along the golf course with multi-story brick and stone exteriors and big roofs. Bigger roofs mean more pitch and more access planning, which the free quote scopes before anyone climbs.

Crabapple historic and downtown

Older homes and cottages around historic downtown Crabapple. Original-era roofing gets our lowest-pressure protocol: the ARMA-approved method is zero pressure, so nothing makes mechanical contact with an older shingle.

Equestrian and large-acreage estates

Horse farms along Freemanville and Birmingham often have barns and outbuildings under the same tree cover as the house. The same zero-pressure method cleans asphalt shingle, metal and tile roofs, residential and small commercial.

Milton · Roof washing, not roof pressure washing

Why we will not pressure wash a Milton roof

What the black streaks are

The black streaks running down an Atlanta roof are not dirt and they will not wash off. They are gloeocapsa magma, a hardy algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads by airborne spores, which is why it tends to appear on one roof and then the whole street.

Zero pressure, spore-level kill

High-pressure roof cleaning voids most shingle manufacturer warranties because the force strips the protective granules off the shingle. Sunshine uses the ARMA-approved method instead: sodium-hypochlorite-based solution at zero PSI that kills algae, moss, lichen and gloeocapsa magma at the spore level. That is why our warranty runs three years instead of three months. What ARMA-approved means: read the explainer.

While we work

Landscaping under the roofline is tarped before anything is applied, and the area is pre-rinsed and re-rinsed as needed. The solution is biodegradable. Pair the roof with gutter cleaning in Milton or a house soft wash in Milton on the same visit.

Milton Roof Soft Washing questions

Common questions from Milton homeowners

Who does roof cleaning in Milton, GA?

Sunshine Cleaning Service, family-owned by Mark since 2004, cleans roofs across Milton, from White Columns and the Freemanville farms to historic Crabapple, using the ARMA-approved zero-pressure soft wash. 4.9 stars on Google with 190+ reviews.

Is roof washing the same as roof pressure washing?

No. Roof cleaning should never be pressure washing. High-pressure roof cleaning voids most shingle warranties because it drives granules off the shingle surface. We use ARMA-approved zero-pressure soft washing, which kills algae and moss at the spore level without touching the shingle mechanically.

How much does roof cleaning cost in Milton?

There is no flat rate. Price moves with the size and pitch of the roof, how much access the crew needs, and how heavy the algae, moss or lichen growth has become. Milton's estate roofs are scoped from a free quote.

How often should a Milton roof be cleaned?

Every 24 to 36 months for most Metro Atlanta roofs. On Milton's wooded and pasture-edge lots, where shade grows algae faster, we typically recommend a 24-month cycle.

What are the black streaks on my roof?

Gloeocapsa magma, a hardy algae that feeds on limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads by airborne spores from neighboring roofs. It is cosmetic first and structural later, because it holds moisture on the shingle.

Will roof cleaning void my shingle warranty?

Not when ARMA-approved methodology is used. The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association explicitly endorses zero-pressure soft-wash chemistry as the safe method for cleaning shingle roofs. High-pressure roof cleaning does void most shingle warranties, and we do not use it.

How long does a roof soft wash last?

24 to 36 months typical, covered by our 3-year warranty. The chemistry kills algae and moss at the spore level rather than just removing visible growth, so re-growth starts from nothing rather than from an established colony.

Do you guarantee the roof stays clean?

Yes. Every roof cleaning carries a 3-year warranty against algae and moss re-growth. If streaks or moss patches come back within 36 months on a treated roof, we re-treat at no charge.

Can you clean a metal or tile roof in Milton?

Yes. The same zero-pressure method works on asphalt shingle, metal and tile roofs, residential and small commercial, and on the barns and outbuildings on Milton's larger properties.

Are you insured for roof cleaning work in Milton?

Yes - $1 million general liability plus workers' compensation. Certificates of insurance are available on request before any work begins.
