High pressure strips protective granules from shingles. A soft wash removes stains safely.
Those dark streaks running down your roof are usually an algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It spreads from shingle to shingle, feeds on the limestone filler in many asphalt shingles, and gets worse every year. It makes a roof look older than it is and can hurt curb appeal when you sell.
Pressure washing a shingle roof is a mistake. High pressure blasts off the granules that protect shingles from the Texas sun and can void manufacturer warranties. Our roof soft wash uses low pressure and a cleaning solution that kills algae, moss, and lichen at the root, then rinses clean.
Most roof washing jobs fall between $450 and $650 ($0.20 to $0.25 per sq ft), depending on roof size, pitch, and how heavy the staining is. Your quote is always free.

We soft wash roofs for homes across Arlington and nearby DFW cities, including Grand Prairie, Mansfield, Fort Worth, Southlake, Keller, and Hurst. Tile roofs get their own careful process on our tile roof cleaning page. See all service areas.
Average roof wash: $450 to $650 for a typical 2,500 to 3,000 sq ft roof. Steep pitch, tile roofs and heavy algae cost more. See average prices by roof size.
Dark algae streaks make a roof absorb more of the sun’s heat. Removing them lets your shingles reflect sunlight the way they were designed to, which can help keep attic temperatures down during an Arlington summer. How much it helps depends on shingle color, attic ventilation, and insulation, so think of it as a bonus on top of a cleaner, longer-lasting roof.

We do not just show up and spray water. Every job follows strict risk-mitigation protocols to protect your home’s electrical and landscaping systems.
We check roof size, pitch, shingle or tile type, and how far the algae has spread, then give you a firm price with no surprise fees.
All exterior GFCI outlets, security cameras, and keypads are taped. Surrounding shrubs, flowers, and turf are pre-saturated with clean water to prevent chemical absorption.
We apply a roof-safe solution at low pressure, let it dwell to kill algae and moss, and rinse gently. No pressure washer ever touches the shingles.
We conduct a 360-degree perimeter walk alongside you. We do not accept final payment or depart until you are completely satisfied with the restored result.

Tips and answers from our Arlington crew. See all articles.
From black streak and roof stain removal to combined roof and gutter cleaning, every Stegmeier roof cleaning service uses the same low-pressure soft wash that keeps your shingles and warranty intact.
Arlington’s heat and humidity give roof algae everything it needs. Black streaks usually show up first on north-facing and shaded slopes, then spread across the roof every year they are left alone. Our roof stain removal treats black algae streaks, green moss and lichen, and the brown tannin stains that drip from overhanging trees, all with the same low-pressure soft wash.
Algae runoff and shingle grit end up in your gutters, so many Arlington homeowners book both at once. Adding gutter cleaning to a roof wash saves a second trip, and our multi-service packages save up to 15% when you bundle two or more services.
We soft wash asphalt shingle, metal, and concrete and clay tile roofs throughout Arlington, from North Arlington and Viridian to South Arlington, Dalworthington Gardens, and Pantego. We also serve Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Mansfield, and the rest of our DFW service areas. The average roof soft wash runs $450 to $650 depending on roof size, pitch, and how much growth is on it.
What homeowners ask before booking a roof cleaning.
Most black streaks are caused by an algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It spreads across shingles and gets darker over time if it is not treated.
No. High pressure damages shingles. We use a low-pressure soft wash that kills the algae and rinses it away safely.
We pre-wet and rinse plants and landscaping around the home to protect them during the cleaning.
Because a soft wash kills algae at the root, results usually last much longer than a simple rinse. Shaded roofs may need treatment more often.
Most roofs fall between $450 and $650 ($0.20 to $0.25 per sq ft) depending on size, pitch, and staining. We give free, exact quotes.
