Soft Wash Roof Cleaning
for Mason Asphalt Shingles
Those dark streaks running down a Mason roof usually arenโt dirt. Our warm, humid summers feed algae and organic growth that settle right into asphalt shingles, the surface found on nearly every home around here. Left alone, it doesnโt just look bad; it sits on the shingles and feeds on the roof itself.
We clean asphalt-shingle roofs with a soft-wash approach: low pressure and a mild solution that lifts the algae and streaking without harming the shingles. Cincinnati Premier Pressure Washing has handled this exact problem on local homes for years, and the results speak for themselves.
If youโre seeing black streaks or green patches creeping across your shingles, we can help. Call us at (513) 827-1079 for a free written estimate.
The Roof Types We Clean
in Mason
Our soft-wash process is matched to asphalt shingles, the roof type on nearly every home in the area, so if thatโs what you have, youโre covered.
Asphalt Shingles
Asphalt shingles are the standard roof across the areaโs predominantly two-story homes. The soft-wash method suits them well: a mild sodium hypochlorite solution kept at around 6%, the concentration asphalt-shingle manufacturers recommend, does the actual work. The chemistry lifts the algae and streaking, not mechanical scrubbing, so the shingles stay protected while the roof comes clean.
Why Mason Homeowners
Choose Us for Roof Cleaning
Beyond a clean roof, hereโs what youโre getting when we handle the job.
The Manufacturer-Recommended Way to Clean Shingles
High pressure is what wears down shingles and shortens a roofโs life, so it never touches your roof. We stick to low pressure and let the mild solution do the work, clearing the algae and streaking while the surface youโre paying to preserve stays intact.
An Honest Read on Your Roof Before We Start
Not every roof is a good candidate for cleaning, and weโll tell you straight at the estimate if yours isnโt, rather than take the job anyway. That honest read comes from a real look at the roofโs condition before we start, and itโs part of the service, not an afterthought.
Careful With Your Plants and Pets
Chemical safety around landscaping and pets is the question we hear most, and we treat it as standard care on every job. Itโs the same mild, plant-safe approach behind our soft-wash house cleaning, so the steps we take around your plants during the wash arenโt an add-on you have to request; theyโre built into how we work, and your yard is looked after while your roof gets clean.

How Our Roof Cleaning Process
Works
From your first call to the final walkaround, hereโs how a roof cleaning goes with us.
The Free Written Estimate
Reach out by phone, the website form, or email. We measure the roof remotely using Google Maps and gather the details that shape the job: roof size, number of levels, how heavy the growth is, and access. Once in a while weโll ask for a few photos or, more rarely, come take a look in person. Then we email you a free written estimate covering the scope and what to expect.
1
Scheduling and the Heads-Up
Once you approve the emailed quote, we get you on the schedule. Youโll hear from us twice before we arrive, the night before and again on the morning of the job, by call, text, or email, so you know exactly when weโre coming.
2
Setup and Plant Protection
On arrival, we tape off electrical. We note where the downspouts drain, since a stronger mixture can harm plants, and we water down and protect the surrounding landscaping. This is also when we look the roof over for loose or worn shingles and any flashing issues before we begin.
3
The Soft-Wash Application
We apply the mild sodium hypochlorite solution, kept at around 6%, the concentration asphalt-shingle manufacturers recommend, using low pressure through a 12-volt low-pressure pump rather than high pressure. We let it dwell and reapply if a spot needs it. Most of the work is done from a ladder.
4
Rinse and Finish
We rinse the treated areas, and the algae and streaking lift as the solution does its work. One post-care note: weโll ask you to keep pets from drinking any ground puddles that day.
5
The Walkaround
When youโre home, we walk the finished roof with you and point out what we treated. We donโt consider the job done until youโre satisfied with the work.

What Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my roof look completely clean the same day you treat it?
Some areas clear as we work, and heavier growth can keep clearing after we leave. We apply the solution, let it dwell, and reapply if a spot needs it before rinsing, because the chemistry is what lifts the algae and streaking. The mild, low-pressure approach is built to clean safely rather than blast the roof, which is exactly how a proper soft wash is meant to work, with no high pressure that would damage the shingles.
Are there roofs you won't clean?
Yes, we canโt safely clean every roof, and weโll tell you honestly at the estimate if yours isnโt a good candidate. We canโt safely clean a roof with heavily worn shingles or with non-working gutters and downspouts, since the cleaning solution needs to drain properly. If the gutters are the holdup, our gutter clean-out clears the channel and downspouts so water moves the way it should. Thatโs part of why we look the roof over for loose or worn shingles and flashing issues before we start.
Is the roof cleaning solution safe for my plants and pets?
Yes, we use a mild solution and take steps to protect whatโs around the house. The roof mix is stronger than our house-wash solution, which is exactly why we water down and protect your plants before, during, and after the job. One post-care note: keep pets from drinking any ground puddles that day.
Do I need to be home when you clean my roof?
Many homeowners like to be there for the end of the job, when we go over the finished results together so you can see the difference up close. If you are home, that final review is how we make sure youโre happy with the work before we call it done.
How long does a roof cleaning take?
Most roof cleanings take about two to three hours. The exact time depends on the roofโs size, number of levels, and how heavy the growth is.
