We Safely and Gently Stop Algae, Moss and Lichen Roof Damage In Its Tracks for You
Your roof is not dirty..it’s infested with bacteria!
Your roof’s unsightly black streaks are actually a form of bacteria, thriving and feasting on your roofing surfaces. The bacteria’s scientific name is “Gloeocapsa Magma”, GM for short. The bacteria spores spread by air, and the micro-organisms feed off of moisture and limestone fillers found in shingles. Typically, the micro-organisms are found on the north and north east sides of roofs which receives less sun, and the shady areas tend to stay wet longer caused by overhanging tree branches. Accumulation of the bacteria starts to show as the ugly black streaks on your roof. The bacteria turns black as their outer coating turns hard to protect itself against the sun's UV rays.
As the bacteria colony grows, it lengthens and streaks down the roof caused by gravity, and holds more moisture on the roof, accelerating the bacteria growth. This provides an excellent environment for moss and lichen to soon follow! It is a viscous circle of roof destruction, decay and dramatic drop in your home, or business’s curb appeal.
The earlier your roof is cleaned and treated the better! South Shore SoftWash, LLC will stop the damage in its tracks!
Do not wait to until moss, lichen and algae also appear and take over your roof !
Specific plant and property protection training has been completed and protective measures are part of our everyday operating procedures! People, plants and pets remain safe! All of our solutions are Eco-friendly and bio-degradable. We ask that pets and their families stay indoors until the job is complete. Certainly we understand people need to come and go. This is accomplished with just a little coordination in the work area. Pets are free to go outside once the job is complete and work-site cleaned up.
Our crew is trained to do everything within our power to protect plant and property! We pre-wet all nearby plants and vegetation as a precaution, then continue as needed during the cleaning and treatment just to be extra protective to your plant beds. We take plant protection one step further and apply a plant wash containing plant nutrients, a chemical neutralizer and apply to all nearby plants and vegetation as an added precaution once the job is complete! This plant wash and rinse is specially formulated to mitigate any potential concerns. Some customers say this is the first time in a long time their plants have been fertilized, watered and treated so well!
We take every foreseeable precaution to ensure that your landscaping and personal property are protected and remain in the same condition or better than when we arrived at your site.

Yes, we can. South Shore SoftWash, LLC understands that certain cleaning needs may apply, such as touching up only the front visible roof to increase the curb appeal for a home for sale. But it is highly recommended to avoid a partial cleaning and treatment. The un-treated sections most likely already have bacteria and algae spores you cannot see. These spores will travel to the treated roof sections and expedite contamination and re-growth.
