Those ugly black streaks running down your roof aren't dirt β€” they're a living organism called Gloeocapsa magma, a hardy blue-green algae that feeds on the limestone filler in your asphalt shingles. Left untreated, it spreads, traps moisture, attracts moss, and shortens your roof's lifespan by years.

Marrone Power Washing LLC removes black streaks, algae, moss, and lichen from asphalt-shingle roofs across Ocean, Monmouth, and Middlesex County, NJ β€” using the ARMA-approved soft-wash method that is the only manufacturer-sanctioned way to clean an asphalt roof.

Why You Should Never Pressure Wash a Roof

High-pressure washing strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles, voids most shingle manufacturers' warranties, and can drive water under the shingles into your attic. Every major shingle manufacturer (GAF, CertainTeed, Owens Corning) and the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA) explicitly recommend low-pressure soft washing only.

We follow ARMA's published guidelines exactly: sodium-hypochlorite-based cleaning solution applied at low pressure, dwell time, then a gentle rinse.

What Roof Soft Washing Removes

Results are visible immediately, and continued kill of remaining spores happens with natural rainfall over the following days.

Our Roof Soft Washing Process

  1. Roof inspection. Assess shingle condition, identify problem areas, check for damaged shingles before cleaning.
  2. Property protection. Pre-soak landscaping; protect gutters and sensitive plants.
  3. Soft-wash application. Low-pressure soft-wash solution applied evenly. No walking on fragile shingles when avoidable.
  4. Dwell and rinse. Solution kills algae and moss at the root; gentle rinse.
  5. Walk-around. Confirm results and provide care recommendations.

How Long Does Roof Soft Washing Last?

A properly performed soft wash keeps a roof streak-free for 4–6 years in our NJ climate. We offer optional zinc strip installation along ridge lines for ongoing prevention.
