Cleaning that enhances and protects your roof system
Your roof does more than just keep you dry during Oregon’s rainy seasons—it plays a critical role in protecting the structural integrity of your entire home. Over time, however, it can become a breeding ground for moss, mold, mildew, and algae, all of which can compromise its function and shorten its lifespan if left untreated.
At JM Total Clean, we offer professional roof cleaning services designed to restore, protect, and extend the life of your roof. Our experienced technicians use safe, effective softwash techniques to gently remove harmful organic growth without damaging shingles or roofing materials. This process not only improves the appearance of your home but also helps prevent costly repairs down the line.
Whether your roof needs routine bi-annual debris removal or a full low-pressure softwash treatment, we tailor our service to your home’s specific needs. From clearing leaves and pine needles to treating moss-infested surfaces, we ensure your roof is clean, protected, and functioning at its best year-round.
Preserve your investment. Enhance your curb appeal. Trust JM Total Clean to keep your roof strong, spotless, and storm-ready.
Our professional-grade solutions don’t just clean the surface—they penetrate deep to prevent regrowth and help your roof stay cleaner, longer.
At JM Total Clean, we believe that protecting your home starts at the top. Our roof cleaning process is designed to be thorough, safe, and highly effective—preserving the integrity of your roofing materials while eliminating moss, algae, and other damaging organic growth. Here’s what you can expect when we service your roof:
Pre-Soak – Preparing and Protecting Your Property
Before we step foot on your roof, we take important precautions to protect the surrounding environment. We begin by spraying any nearby landscaping, vegetation, and decking with clean water to create a protective barrier. This helps minimize the potential impact of our cleaning solution on your plants or outdoor finishes and ensures a safer, cleaner process from the start.
Scrub – Manual Moss Removal for Maximum Effectiveness
Once the area is prepped, we use a medium-thistle brush to gently scrub the roof and remove the bulk of any thick moss buildup. This hands-on method not only helps prevent damage to your shingles but also ensures that our treatment can reach the roots of the moss and algae, where it’s most effective. After scrubbing, we blow off any remaining debris or loose material to leave the surface clean and ready for treatment.
Treatment – Targeted Application for Long-Term Results
With the surface cleared, we apply our specialized roof washing solution—a safe, eco-friendly mix designed to kill moss, algae, and other organic growth at the root level. This chemical soak works deep into the surface to stop regrowth and extend the life of your roof.
It’s important to note that results vary depending on your roofing material and the type of growth present. For example, black streaking caused by algae typically clears the same day as treatment. In contrast, thick patches of moss will begin dying immediately but may take several weeks to a few months to fully break down and weather away naturally.
From careful preparation to long-term protection, our process is built around safety, effectiveness, and preserving the value of your home. With JM Total Clean, your roof is in the hands of experienced professionals who treat every home like their own.
