Thanks for the question Kamal! After we soft wash a roof it typically stays clean for 3-5 years. Every roof is different due to the environment around the house (Trees, humidity ect.) or material used for the roof (metal, shingles or tile). Mold and organic growth comes from moisture build up. For example concrete tiles are very porous which allows more moisture in them than shingles or metal roofs. With this being said, tile roofs usually need to be cleaned more often than roofs made out of other material.

After you soft wash my roof, how long does it stay clean for?

Hey Tommy, thanks for reaching out. That is a great question! When done correctly, the soft wash process is completely safe for plants/vegetation surrounding the house. We use sodium hypochlorite to treat the mold growth existing on the exterior of homes. While spraying these areas with S.H. we also have a team member watering the plants. Sodium hypochlorite decomposes fast and turns into salt. It is the salt that shocks and hurts plants/vegetation. As long as the plants are wet and get rinsed thoroughly during the clean there wont be any issues. We pre rinse all the plants before the clean and rinse during / after the clean for about 20 minutes. We also bag off the gutters so there is no run off into the customers lawn.
