Should you pressure wash roof?

You should not pressure wash your roof, instead you should soft wash it!

Do Not Pressure Wash Roof

If you ask any pressure washer who has been in the business long enough, they should tell you right away that pressure washing your roof is not recommended.

Professional pressure washing uses water at around 2,000 to 3,000 PSI, this pressure allows us to clean very tough surfaces such as concrete floors with incredible efficiency and allows us to get dirt and grime that is embedded in tough surfaces.

This kind of pressure however could be detremential to the majority of roof types. Your roof tiles are very pourus and much softer than typical driveway tiles. These tiles are are prone to chipping and eroding much more easily that driveways. Not to mention that any imperfections in the tile would be exacerbated by the high pressure of a pressure washer.

So what is the solution?
