Overview

Moss under the oaks

Heavy moss is brushed off, the whole roof is treated so lichen and small moss die at the root, and we come back in two to three weeks to check. In El Dorado, how much of that a roof needs comes down to shade.

Older homes near the town's crossroads core tend to sit among more trees. A roof that spends most of the day in shade stays damp longer, which is what moss needs, and that is where raised growth worth brushing off tends to appear. On the more open rural lots outside the core, roofs see more sun and are more likely to show flat lichen patches than thick moss.

What comes off the roof is cleaned up, including from a neighbor's yard where houses sit close. That material also lands in the gutters, so it can be worth booking gutter cleaning for the same day.

What's included

In the price — and what isn't.

Included in every visit

  • Moss brushed off

    Heavy moss removed mechanically, with a brush.

  • Whole-roof treatment

    Kills lichen and small moss at the root.

  • Return visit

    Two to three weeks later, to check the result.

  • Clean-up below

    What comes off the roof is cleaned up, including on a neighbor's property when houses sit close.

Not included

  • Pressure washing the roof: it strips the protective granules off shingles and damages soft roofing
  • Roof repairs, replacement shingles and sealing: we clean, we do not re-roof
  • Gutter clearing, which is a separate service

Process

How we do Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal.

  1. Read the growth

    We look at what is growing up there, since heavy raised moss and flat lichen need different treatments, and a person replies with a starting price.

  2. Brush off moss

    Heavy moss is brushed off mechanically.

  3. Treat the roof

    The roof is sprayed with a treatment that kills the remaining growth at the root.

  4. Lichen dies off

    Over the following two to three weeks the lichen dies and blows off in the wind. Nothing more is needed from you.

  5. Return visit

    We come back in two to three weeks to see the result for ourselves.

The crew was right on time and did a thorough job, leaving everything in my place looking great and taking good care not to disturb anything. Marianna comes every Monday and turns our mess into a home—I wouldn’t give her up for the world.

My house is absolutely beautiful. I’ve had difficulty being able to clean it to the level that I’m used to and so to have her come in yesterday and just do everything perfectly put me at such a sense of ease I can’t recommend this service any higher

Natalia showed up on time to our cleaning appointment. She was extremely respectful, soft demeanor, and very kind. It's always difficult trusting strangers in our homes, but I felt completely comfortable with having her here. She did an amazing job cleaning, and I will definitely request her return. Thank you so much!

FAQ

(279) 300-0830
Do older El Dorado roofs need more moss treatment?

Often, yes. Homes near the crossroads core have more tree cover, so their roofs stay shaded and damp longer than those on the open rural outskirts.

Do you do the follow-up visit for El Dorado roof jobs?

Yes. We return two to three weeks after the treatment to see the result, the same as on every roof job. By then the dead lichen has mostly blown off in the wind.

Why not just pressure wash an El Dorado roof?

Because it damages the shingles. Pressure washing strips their protective granules, so we brush heavy moss off and treat the rest, and the dead lichen blows off over the following weeks.
