We battled moss on our roof for years until we gave Mark a call. His company did an excellent job at a reasonable price. We have them come back every year to treat it, for a fraction of the price the original cleaning costs. We. haven’t had a problem since we have gone with them. They remind us once a year, when it is time to have it done. We appreciate that because we would not remember. Mark is very personable and professional. We would highly recommend this company !

Expert Roof Cleaning/Shampoo in Marion County, OR
Marion County's wet Willamette Valley climate keeps roofs damp for much of the year. That persistent moisture feeds moss and algae growth on shingles and shake roofs alike. Left in place, moss holds water against the roof surface, wedges between shingles, and accelerates wear. Roof cleaning removes that buildup before it causes deeper damage. First Aid Roof Care has been cleaning roofs in this region since 1992. Our owner started on shake roofs, spent years refining his approach in Southern California, and brought that hands-on experience back to Oregon. That background means we know how different roofing materials respond to cleaning and what Marion County roofs face season after season. We serve homeowners across Marion County, including Salem, Aumsville, and surrounding communities, as well as Polk County, Linn County, Benton County, Albany, and Clackamas County. If your roof shows dark streaks, green patches, or visible moss growth, a professional cleaning is the practical first step to protecting what you have.

Roof Cleaning/Shampoo FAQ
Common questions about roof cleaning/shampoo in Marion County, OR.
Cleaning is worth it when shingles or shakes are still structurally sound and moss or algae is the main problem. Removing the growth and treating the surface can protect a Marion County roof that still has usable life left.
Moss can return in Salem's wet climate because the conditions that feed it do not go away. Cleaning removes the existing growth, and follow-up treatment helps slow regrowth.
Yes, shake roofs need a gentler approach because the material is more sensitive to pressure and abrasion. Our owner has cleaned shake roofs since the start of his career, so that experience guides how we handle them across Marion County.
If shingles still lay flat and the growth is on the surface rather than underneath, cleaning is typically the right move. We can assess the condition of your Marion County roof when we arrive.
Yes, First Aid Roof Care serves Polk County, Linn County, Benton County, Clackamas County, Albany, Aumsville, and Salem in addition to Marion County. Call us to confirm service for your specific address.
Black streaks are typically algae growth, which is common across the Willamette Valley due to the region's damp, overcast conditions. Roof cleaning removes the algae and the staining it leaves behind.
