Roof Washing Baton Rouge LA
![]() Most of us take our roof for granted. It protects us from the pelting rain and the scorching sun, but most of the we don’t think much of it. Sure, if the storms get bad enough to knock our roof off, we notice it, or if we experience leaks, we notice it then, but other than that, we just assume it will always be there and work for us the way it has the entire time it’s been there.
However, they do fail, and not only because of monster storms and hurricanes, but through normal every day existence. Roofs require cleaning. That means someone needs to go up there and clean away the dust and dirt, the leaves and twigs and debris, the mold and mildew, and the lichen and moss, that build up naturally over the course of many years. Let’s talk about lichen. I know, it’s not the most exciting thing to talk about, but lichen can damage roofing tiles. Lichen can soak up water and hold it against the surface of your roof, causing wear and tear of your roof to speed up. It can cause shingles to warp and bend; it can even cause them to separate from each other. This could likely lead to an expensive roof replacement job in the future. Moss has some of the same problems. It holds water like a sponge, and water does not react well with woof and metal over time; wood rots, metal rusts, and your roof can easily crack and produce leaks. But even more so, water-saturated moss can become heavy, and the inconsistent weight distribution of water-soaked moss on your tiles can further increase the likelihood of rot and water leaks into your home. Unlike roofs being whisked away in a hurricane, here one second, gone the next, this kind of damage happens gradually, and could already be happening without you knowing it. It is far better to discover these source of these problems before they become problems. And one way of doing that is using our roof washing service. |

As with house washing, high-pressure water jets might not be suitable for all types of roof washing jobs. There are some types of roofing tiles that don’t react well to the type of vigorous cleaning that occurs because of a high-pressure jet. The water droplets are so small and projected at such a speed due to the 200 times atmospheric capabilities of the jet, that each droplet is like a tiny little pickaxe chipping away at whatever they come into contact. Some surfaces can handle that kind of cleaning pressure without damage; some can’t, like shingles.
During such situations, we would use a Soft Wash Process instead. This process substitutes environmentally friendly chemicals for the high-pressure water. These chemicals break down the dirt, mold, lichen and whatever contaminants are on your roof, and then a low-pressure water rinse washes it all away.
And perhaps the type of material is not the only thing that may cause us to use the soft wash process on a roof wash. The equipment required for high-pressure water cleaning is heavy and difficult to move around, particularly up and down ladders, and some roofs are especially steep and far too dangerous to move such heavy equipment. In these circumstances, we would again use the Soft Wash process instead.
Each job needs to be considered on their own merits. At AllOver Pressure Washing Baton Rouge, our contractors are experienced and professional enough to adapt their washing strategy to meet each job’s specific circumstances.
