Professional Roof Cleaning for Gold Coast Homes
The Gold Coast’s warm, humid climate creates ideal conditions for moss, lichen, and algae growth on roof tiles. While these organic growths might seem harmless, they actually trap moisture against your tiles, leading to premature deterioration, cracking, and costly repairs.
Our specialised roof cleaning service safely removes all organic growth and restores your roof’s appearance while protecting the integrity of your tiles. We use industry-leading soft wash techniques that deliver outstanding results without the risks of high-pressure washing.
Why Roof Cleaning Matters
Many homeowners don’t realize the serious damage that moss and lichen can cause:
- Moisture Damage: Organic growth traps moisture against tiles, causing them to become porous and brittle
- Structural Issues: Water absorption can lead to cracked tiles, leaks, and damaged sarking
- Reduced Lifespan: Untreated roofs can deteriorate 5-10 years earlier than properly maintained ones
- Energy Costs: Dark stains and growth absorb heat, increasing your cooling costs in summer
- Property Value: A stained, moss-covered roof significantly reduces curb appeal and property value
Our Safe Soft Wash Method
Unlike high-pressure roof cleaning that can crack tiles, dislodge them from battens, or force water underneath, our soft wash method uses:
- Specialized Biocides: Professional-grade treatments that kill moss, lichen, and algae at the root
- Low Pressure: Gentle rinsing at 100-300 PSI (similar to rain) that safely removes dead growth
- Tile Protection: pH-balanced solutions that clean without degrading tile protective coatings
- Gutter Care: We flush all debris into gutters and remove it, ensuring proper drainage
Suitable for All Roof Types
We have extensive experience cleaning all common Gold Coast roof materials:
