Is Your Roof a Liability?
Your Roof Power Washing Questions Answered
Have more questions? Don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to help.
How long does it take to powerwash a roof?
Most roofs are done in 1 to 2 days, depending on size and condition. We aim to minimize disruption.
How often should I have my roof washed?
It depends on your environment — trees, humidity, and coastal air all play a role. A good rule of thumb is every 1 to 5 years. Routine roof cleaning helps maintain your roof's appearance and prevents algae and moss buildup.
Is it safe to remove roof moss myself?
It's risky. Mossy roofs are slippery, and DIY methods often damage shingles.
What’s the best time of year to clean a roof?
Late spring and early fall offer the good conditions because of mild temperatures and low rainfall. Due to Santa Barbara’s usually great weather, just about any time is a good time for roof cleaning.
Do shingle roofs need cleaning?
Yes, especially in Santa Barbara where moisture and shade can lead to algae. Regular cleaning protects your roof and preserves its value.
What’s better: soft washing or pressure washing?
When it comes to roof cleaning, there are key differences in approach. Traditional high-pressure washing uses powerful water streams, which can be too aggressive for roofing materials, potentially damaging shingles by stripping granules or forcing water underneath them. Our "power washing" approach at Legacy Roofing is more akin to a soft wash. We use carefully calibrated pressure and techniques designed specifically for roofing materials, ensuring an effective yet gentle cleaning that thoroughly removes algae and mold without causing harm. This method is safer for your roof and is often recommended by roofing manufacturers.
Is professional roof cleaning worth it?
Absolutely. A clean roof protects your investment, can help keep your insurance intact, and boosts your home’s appearance. Done wrong, cleaning can damage your roof. Done right, it extends its life.
