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 Soft Wash Cleaning in Marion County, OR
Soft wash cleaning is a low-pressure method that removes moss, algae, black streaks, and organic staining from roofs and exterior surfaces without grinding away shingles or surface material. Marion County's wet winters and mild temperatures keep roofs damp for months at a time, giving moss and algae a long growing season on north-facing slopes and shaded surfaces. High-pressure washing strips granules and shortens roof life. Soft washing applies roof-safe cleaning solutions that break the bond between organic growth and the surface, then rinses it away at low pressure. The result is a clean roof that has been treated at the root of the problem, not just scrubbed on the surface. First Aid Roof Care has cleaned roofs across Marion County, Polk County, Linn County, Benton County, Clackamas County, Salem, Albany, Aumsville, and surrounding communities. If your roof shows green patches, dark streaks, or visible staining, soft wash cleaning is the right call before that growth works deeper into the surface. Call First Aid Roof Care to get started.
