Asphalt Shingle
Asphalt shingles are the norm around here, so we clean them most. They sit on nearly every two-story Colonial in the area. We soft-wash them with a roof-strength mix and never blast them.

Dark algae streaks can spread across asphalt shingle and slate roofs in Midlothian, especially during our hot, humid summers. Reyco Pressure Washing & Sealing uses a low-pressure soft wash to treat the growth without blasting the roofing material. We clean from a stabilized ladder, with one crew member handling the washing while another stays on the ground. If dark streaks are starting to cover your roof, call us at (804) 338-6763 for an estimate.
We clean both roof types you're likely to have, using the same gentle soft wash on each, not high pressure.

We soft-wash asphalt shingle and slate roofs, applied from a stabilized ladder wherever we can, with a second crew member on the ground protecting your plants.
A roof clean goes better with two people and the right method, and here's what that means for your home and your yard.
We clean asphalt shingle roofs using the method the Shingle Manufacturers Association approves, so your roof is cleaned without risking its warranty. That matters, because a roof is a big investment and the last thing you want is a cleaning that voids the coverage you paid for.
Every roof we clean is a two-person job: one of us on the ladder, the other on the ground from start to finish. That second person focuses entirely on your yard and landscaping. You get your roof back clean without worrying about what the work did to the garden underneath it.
Our ladders sit on stabilizer legs that keep them off your gutters. Nothing leans on the gutters, so nothing gets crushed or bent while we work above them.
From your first call to the final check-in, here's how a roof cleaning works.
Reach out by call, text, or our form. If we miss you, we call back by the end of the day. Send us your name, address, and email, and we'll measure your roof online and confirm the roof type. We email your itemized estimate, so there are no guessed numbers over the phone.
Approve the estimate with one click, then pick from the dates we email you. The morning before we come, you get an automatic reminder.
We pull into the driveway and knock to let you know we're here. Before we take the hoses off the van, we check that no cars need to be moved. Then we bag delicate plants like Japanese maples and wrap the downspouts to catch runoff.
One technician applies the solution, usually from a ladder with stabilizer legs and up on the roof when a section calls for it. The soft-wash system meters the mix to its strongest roof setting: a blend of sodium hypochlorite and a surfactant we mix ourselves.
The second technician stays on the ground the whole time. That person wets down your plants, dilutes any overspray, and keeps the runoff under control.
We check in with you and don't pack up until you're happy with the work. Pay by check, by card on site, or from the emailed invoice. Your receipt and a review request follow automatically, and if anything's off, just tell us.
Roof cleaning is priced per job, so your number depends on your own roof. We size it up and send the exact figure in your emailed estimate.
A couple of ways to save when roof cleaning is part of a bigger visit:
Every job comes with our 100% satisfaction guarantee. If anything isn't right, we come back out, usually within 24 hours, to fix it, and if we damage anything, we make it right. That covers missed spots and accidental damage alike, so you're never left holding the bill for our mistake.
Most roofs stay algae-free for at least three years. On very tall homes, we may need to bring in a lift, and we'll let you know up front if that changes the price. The lift is a rental and only comes up on the tallest homes. We raise it with you in the estimate, never as a surprise on the day of the job.
Most roof cleanings take two to three hours. We let you know when we're done and check in with you before we pack up.
