Roof Washing for Auburn Hills homes
Why Auburn Hills properties need roof washing
As a rapidly developing area, many Auburn Hills homes are reaching the age where the first algae streaking and pollen film appear, and the contemporary designs often feature tall walls and broad elevations that need professional reach.
Auburn Hills is a growing, forward-looking suburb where newer subdivisions and contemporary homes continue to spread along the Squirrel Road corridor near Great Lakes Crossing and Oakland University. With so much recent construction in neighborhoods like Hawthorne Hills, the housing here skews young, but young homes don’t stay pristine forever.
Many of these properties are now hitting the age where the first signs of algae streaking and pollen buildup start to creep across siding and shaded walls. The contemporary designs popular here often bring tall elevations and broad surfaces that are tough to reach and clean evenly from the ground. A professional soft wash handles the full height safely, clearing that early growth before it sets in and keeping these newer Auburn Hills homes looking the way they did the day they were built.

About our roof washing service
Those ugly black streaks running down your roof aren’t dirt — they’re a living algae called Gloeocapsa magma that feeds on asphalt shingles and thrives in Michigan’s humid, shaded conditions. Left alone, it spreads, traps heat, and shortens the life of your roof. Roof washing — also called roof cleaning — removes it completely and stops it from coming back.
We clean roofs the right way: a 100% low-pressure soft wash. Power washing a roof blasts the protective granules off your shingles and can void your manufacturer’s warranty. Instead, we apply a manufacturer-approved cleaning solution that kills the algae, moss, and lichen at the root, then gently rinse — no scrubbing, no granule loss, no damage.
The payoff is a roof that looks years younger, sheds heat better, and lasts longer — protecting one of the most expensive components of your home.
- Removes black streaks (Gloeocapsa magma algae), moss and lichen
- 100% low-pressure soft wash — never damages or voids shingle warranties
- Extends roof lifespan and improves energy efficiency
- Recommended by shingle manufacturers (ARMA) over pressure washing

Roof Washing in Auburn Hills — FAQs
What are the black streaks on my roof?
Those streaks are a hardy blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and spreads across damp, shaded roofs — extremely common in humid Michigan summers.
Will pressure washing damage my roof?
Yes — high pressure strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles and can void your warranty. We only soft wash, which is the method the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends.
How often should a roof be cleaned?
Most metro Detroit roofs benefit from a soft wash every 2–4 years, depending on tree cover and shade. Catching it early prevents permanent staining and premature shingle aging.
