Check that the satellite image and highlighted building match your property. Missing imagery or outlines need a manual assessment.

Trace a roof on satellite imagery

Optional manual measurement. Find the property in Google Maps, right-click its roof and copy the latitude, longitude. Paste those coordinates below. Loading the map uses Esri imagery. Confirm the location, zoom in and trace the outside roof edge. This does not detect the roof automatically.

Click each roof corner in order, then use the area. Avoid crossing the outline. Do not include neighbouring roofs, yards or driveways. Imagery can be dated or displaced; verify the roof boundary.

What’s included

  • Roof condition and safe-access assessment
  • Controlled low-pressure softwash treatment
  • Treatment for lichen, moss and algae

Remaining dead lichen can weather away gradually after treatment. Solar panel and gutter cleaning are separate services.

why softwash?

A careful clean without aggressive blasting.

Lichen anchors itself to roof surfaces and is not simply loose dirt. Softwashing applies a purpose-selected cleaning treatment at controlled low pressure, giving it time to work on organic growth.

The roof may continue to lighten after treatment as weather gradually releases remaining dead lichen. We assess the roof material, condition, access and surrounding areas before recommending the right approach.

WHY CLEAN YOUR ROOF?

Why remove roof lichen?

Refresh its appearance

Remove dark staining, moss and lichen that can make an otherwise well-kept property look tired.

A gentler method

Controlled low pressure treats organic growth without relying on aggressive high-pressure blasting.

Treat organic growth

The softwash targets lichen, moss and algae so remaining dead growth can release over time.

Easier maintenance

A cleaner surface makes the roof easier to inspect and maintain as part of regular property care.

Lichen grows wherever moisture lingers.

Shaded roof areas near trees can develop widespread lichen and moss. Treating the organic growth helps restore the roof’s appearance and makes ongoing inspection and maintenance easier.
