Professional roof cleaning that removes algae and moss safely, protecting your investment and warranty coverage.
Hear from Our Customers
Those black streaks aren’t just dirt. They’re algae feeding on your shingles, shortening your roof’s life and killing your curb appeal.
When we’re done, you’ll see the difference immediately. Your roof looks years younger. Your neighbors notice. Your home value reflects it.
But here’s what matters more than appearance: you’ve just added years to your roof’s life. The algae that was slowly eating away at your shingles is gone. The moss that was lifting and cracking them is eliminated. You’ve prevented thousands in premature replacement costs.
Blue Ridge Exterior Cleaning has been serving Hollymead and Central Virginia since 2010. We’re the company other professionals recommend when they need roof cleaning done right.
Our team brings over 15 Years of combined experience to every project. We’re certified by industry leaders including the National Soft Wash Alliance, Spray Wash Pro, and Spray Wash Academy.
What sets us apart in Hollymead is simple: you get a real person when you call, clear communication from our crew, and results that speak for themselves. We’ve built our reputation on old-fashioned values and never compromising quality for price.
We don’t use pressure washing on roofs. Ever. High pressure strips away protective granules and can void your warranty. Instead, we use a proven soft wash system that’s approved by major shingle manufacturers.
First, we apply our specialized cleaning solution that kills algae and moss on contact. This isn’t just soap and water – it’s a carefully formulated treatment that targets the organisms damaging your roof without harming the shingles themselves.
The solution does the work, not water pressure. We let it dwell for the right amount of time, then rinse with low pressure water. Dead algae washes away naturally with future rains. Moss loosens and can be gently removed without damage.
You get a clean roof that looks great and lasts longer, with your warranty intact.

Virginia’s humid climate creates perfect conditions for algae and moss growth, especially on north-facing roof sections that stay damp longer. In Hollymead, we see this constantly – that’s why regular roof maintenance isn’t optional, it’s essential.
Our roof cleaning service removes gloeocapsa magma (the scientific name for those black streaks), moss, lichen, and other organic growth. We work on all roof types: asphalt shingles, metal roofing, cedar shake, and tile.
Every job includes a thorough inspection. If we spot potential issues – damaged flashing, loose shingles, or areas needing attention – we’ll point them out. We’re not roofers, but we know what to look for after fourteen years of working on roofs throughout Central Virginia.
