Those black streaks and dark patches spreading across your Burlington roof aren’t just an eyesore, they’re a sign of a growing algae and mold infestation that’s actively shortening the life of your shingles. Liberty Power Wash provides professional roof cleaning in Burlington, KY using safe, manufacturer-approved soft washing methods that eliminate the problem without voiding your roof warranty.
The dark staining on roofs throughout Burlington is caused primarily by Gloeocapsa magma, a type of blue-green algae that feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. Left untreated, this algae leads to granule loss, premature shingle deterioration, and can significantly reduce your roof’s lifespan. Burlington’s warm, humid summers and wet springs make roofs especially susceptible.
Homes throughout Burlington, especially those with tree coverage near Boone County Park, along Idlewild Road, in shaded neighborhoods near Gunpowder Creek, and in established subdivisions off KY-338, commonly experience heavy roof algae growth.
We use the ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association) recommended soft wash method, which uses a low-pressure application of eco-friendly biocidal cleaning solutions to kill and remove algae, moss, lichen, and mold at the root. This method is safe for all types of shingles and prevents the granule damage caused by high-pressure washing.
Beyond roof cleaning, we offer Burlington homeowners and businesses a full range of exterior cleaning: pressure washing, soft washing, house washing, deck cleaning, fence cleaning, concrete cleaning, gutter cleaning, paver cleaning, and patio cleaning. One company for all your exterior needs.
We also provide commercial roof cleaning services for businesses, apartment complexes, and commercial properties throughout Burlington and Boone County. A clean roof improves your building’s appearance, reduces energy costs, and prevents costly early replacement.
Yes. Soft washing is the only manufacturer-approved method for roof cleaning and is far safer than pressure washing. It uses low pressure and specialized detergents to clean without causing shingle damage.
Most residential roofs in Burlington can be cleaned in 2–4 hours. Commercial roofs may take longer depending on size and condition.
We recommend cleaning every 2–3 years for most Burlington homes, though heavily shaded properties may benefit from annual treatment.
