Blue Ridge Exterior Cleaning has been protecting Central Virginia roofs since before most companies knew roof cleaning was even possible. With over three decades of experience, we’ve developed the expertise to handle everything from historic properties to high-end homes to complex commercial projects.
What sets us apart isn’t just experience—it’s our commitment to doing business the right way. You’ll always get a real person on the phone, clear communication from our crew, and personal attention that’s become rare in today’s market.
We’re certified by industry leaders like Spray Wash Pro, Spray Wash Academy, and the National Soft Wash Alliance. More importantly, we follow manufacturer guidelines that protect your warranty while delivering results that last.
First, we inspect your roof to identify the specific type of growth and any potential concerns. No two roofs are exactly alike, and the treatment needs to match what you’re dealing with.
Next comes the soft wash treatment—a low-pressure application that’s gentler than your garden hose but powerful enough to kill algae, moss, and bacteria down to the root. This isn’t pressure washing your roof, which can void warranties and damage shingles. It’s the manufacturer-approved method that actually works.
The cleaning solution does the heavy lifting. You’ll see black streaks disappear almost instantly. Moss begins to turn from green to white, indicating it’s dying. The treatment continues working for weeks, with dead organic matter naturally washing away with rain.
Finally, we clean up completely and provide you with maintenance recommendations to keep your roof looking great longer.

Virginia’s humid climate creates perfect conditions for roof algae and moss growth. The warm summers and moisture-rich environment mean your roof faces challenges that homeowners in drier climates never deal with.
In Augusta Springs and the surrounding Shenandoah Valley, older homes with mature tree coverage face even greater challenges. Shade and debris create ideal growing conditions for the organisms that cause those unsightly black streaks and potentially damaging moss buildup.
That’s why regular professional roof cleaning isn’t just cosmetic—it’s essential maintenance. The longer you wait, the more established these growths become, and the more difficult and expensive they are to address properly.
We understand these local conditions. We’ve developed specialized techniques for Virginia’s climate and have the experience to handle the unique challenges that come with our region’s older homes and mature landscapes.
