What’s growing on your roof?
Here in the Pacific Northwest, roofs grow more than moss. Most have a mix of:
- Moss: the green, spongy tufts and mats.
- Lichen: crusty yellow, orange or gray patches, made of a fungus and
an alga growing together. - Algae: the black streaks running down your shingles.
- Fungus and mold: especially on cedar shake roofs, where they work
into the wood.
Why it matters
Moss and lichen don’t just sit on your roof. They grow into the surface, work their way under your shingles and lift them, so rain gets underneath. Moss acts like a sponge. Once it’s soaked, it can add
hundreds of pounds of weight to your roof. It also blocks water from running off, so water backs up and ponds in places it should be flowing, and that’s where leaks start. Lichen loosens the protective granules on your shingles. On cedar roofs, fungus breaks down the wood’s natural protection and leads to rot. Left alone, all of it shortens the life of
your roof.
How our treatment works
Our eco-friendly roof treatment kills moss, lichen, algae and fungus down to the cellular level. It also helps the growth release from your roof on its own, so it washes away naturally over time with no harsh
scraping or high pressure. It cleans away the dirt and buildup that feed new growth too, so there’s less left for it to come back on. It’s safe for your roof, gutters, siding and landscaping.

Roof Repair & Maintenance

Why we don’t use heavy metals
We never use zinc or copper sulfate. They’re toxic to our rivers,
streams and salmon, and they only kill what’s already there. The dead moss stays on the roof as bedding for new growth. In our experience, it can start coming back in as little as 90 days, often during the same fall and winter season. That’s why those treatments still end up needing a full cleaning every few years.
Why we don’t use bleach “soft wash”
The most common “soft wash” mix for roofs and house washing is just bleach, which is sodium hypochlorite, mixed with dish soap. Many companies spray it on roofs and leave it there. That bleach runs off into your gutters, your plants and the storm drains, and it can harm your roof and take years off its life. Our roof treatment is much more than bleach and dish soap. It’s a true eco-friendly treatment that kills growth at the cellular level and cleans your roof’s surface, without adding anything toxic to the environment.
The 6-inch rule: where rot startsKeep it clean year after year

gutters, treat new growth before it takes hold, and keep an eye on your roof. It’s one of the best ways to avoid problems and catch small issues early, before they turn into costly repairs. You’ll never have to
remember to call. Ask us about our maintenance plans.
