Soft-Wash Roof Cleaning
That Protects Your Shingles.
Those black streaks aren't just dirt — they're living gloeocapsa algae eating your roof granules. We use the ARMA-approved soft-wash process to kill the algae at the root and reveal the roof you forgot you had.
Black Streaks Are
Costing You Money.
Gloeocapsa magma — the blue-green algae that causes those ugly black stripes — literally eats the limestone filler inside asphalt shingles. Left alone, it shortens roof life by 5–10 years and tanks your curb appeal.
What Happens When
You Put It Off.
Six things that get worse every month you wait — and every one of them is solved in a single TruShine visit.
Shingle Degradation
Gloeocapsa algae eats the limestone filler in shingles, causing granule loss and premature roof failure.
Lost Property Value
A black-streaked roof reads as "old and tired" to buyers — even if the shingles have 15 years of life left.
Moss Holds Moisture
Moss on the north side of your roof traps water, leading to rot, leaks, and lifted shingles.
Heat Inefficiency
Dirty, dark roofs absorb more heat — which means higher summer electric bills in the Myrtle Beach heat.
Landscape Runoff
Untreated algae runoff stains siding, gutters, and driveways. One roof wash prevents three other problems.
Voided Warranty Risk
Many shingle manufacturers require documented maintenance. A professional wash is your proof.

How We Get
It Spotless.
A repeatable, no-shortcuts workflow we've refined across 100+ jobs on the Grand Strand.
Inspection & Assessment
We walk the property (and the roof when safe), identify problem areas, and confirm shingle condition before we touch anything.
Landscape Protection
All plants, gutters, and downspouts are pre-rinsed and tarped. We meter every drop that leaves the roof.
Soft-Wash Application
Low-pressure sodium hypochlorite solution is applied with a dedicated soft-wash pump — the only ARMA-approved method.
Dwell Time
The solution kills the algae at the root. No scrubbing, no walking, no granule loss — just chemistry doing the work.
Full Rinse & Re-Rinse
We rinse the roof, the gutters, and every plant a second time to neutralize any residual solution.
Transformation Photo Set
You get a before/after photo set the same day — great for HOA proof, neighbors, and realtor files.
