When people ask us: what is the best method to clean my roof? or, what is soft wash? We explain them: roof soft wash is spraying a liquid solution made with chlorine and a surfactant. What is chlorine? Chlorine is the abbreviation for Sodium Hypochlorite (H Cl). This is a chemical compound that is used to kill all kinds of mold, algae, bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms that affect health.

 

This kind of microorganisms grow in humid environments and climates, such as South Florida weather. They grow in porous surfaces such as tiles and concrete. Most tiles in South Florida cities, such as Cooper City, Weston, Davie and others are made of concrete, so they are the perfect environment for them to develop fast.

 

By applying this solution as a fine mist or spray, we kill these organisms and give your roof the original color, so it can look as new.

 

It is called roof soft wash in contraposition to roof pressure wash, which is a method that used mechanical force from pressurized water to unattach these microorganisms from the tile surface.

 

Pressure washing is most commonly used for pressure cleaning driveways, pressure washing patios, pressure cleaning walls, pressure cleaning fences, and others.

​

Now, many people ask us: is best, to pressure washing my roof? or, is it best to soft washing my roof? Most pressure washers in Pembroke Pines, Weston, Tamarac and other cities will recommend to pressure wash your roof, if they do not have the capability to soft wash. Most exterior cleaners will offer what they can provide.

​

The point here is that if you have a roof soft wash, it will last longer that if you have a roof pressure cleaner do their job.

 

However, some people prefer pressure washing their roof, as they do not like the odor of H-CL. In the end, it is up to the customer living in Broward to decide which way to clean it.
