The thought of having your roof cleaned may have never crossed your mind, but the technique — which is a service we offer, here at Glass Geeks — is important to any homeowner for many reasons. Some reasons for professional roof cleaning in San Antonio include:
Giving Your Home A Cleaner Appearance

The first appearance to potential new homeowners is important – no one wants to live in an area that has no curb appeal.
A dirty roof with debris and algae does not look good against dark green fertilized and cut grass, or neat and tidy landscapes.

Professional Roof Cleaning In San Antonio
As you know, keeping a clean roof is eye-pleasing to anyone, but did you also know it is also cost-effective? Keeping a clean roof allows the roof to do part of its job, which is reflecting heat.
When there is dirt, debris, and fungus on a roof it cannot effectively reflect heat, which increases energy bills. You can find local same-day roof cleaning by professionals already working in your neighborhood by contacting Glass Geeks today or by giving us a call.

FAQ - Roof cleaning services
Does cleaning your roof damage it?
Yes, roof washing can damage your roof if done INCORRECTLY, which means you need to have the right training to know your roof’s material needs, the types of soils on the roof and the right equipment to execute. For example, a metal roof might allow a high pressure water without damaging but a shingle roof would easily stripped and severely damaged. However, to avoid damaging your roof in all circumstances, we use a low pressure water and a great soaping process that we call softwashing.
How much does roof cleaning cost?
To get right to the point, residential home pricing starts based on the square foot size of the roof and ranges from $500 to $1500. From that baseline, prices increase based on the number of stories of the house (the difficulty of reaching the roof), the soil level (amount of soaps/time/etc needed to get it clean), the difficulty to walk on the roof (the pitch) and what material type is the roof made of (similar variables as soil level). Ultimately, the roof must be inspected for an accurate price.
What is soft wash roof cleaning?
Softwashing is a process of using low pressure water pumps and a special combination of commercial grade soaps. Certified softwashing systems use water-based, biodegradable chemicals that emulsify dirt and grime as well as sanitize the surface they are bonded to. The treatment lasts four to six times longer than pressure washing and uses one third of the water.
