Roof cleaning in Lexington, SC
Lexington sits between the lake and the Old Mill, and the lake sets the weather for every house in town. Roofs here are lighter shingle roofs that show black streaks early, which is exactly where black streaks start: algae feeding on the limestone in the shingle, spreading down the shaded slope a little more every summer. We treat it at low pressure so the streaks die and the shingles stay put. From Golden Hills to Oak Grove, the whole town is in range.

- Insured work, certificate sent to you or your HOA on request.
Why roofs streak in Lexington
Lexington roofs get Lake Murray, which puts moisture in the air across the whole town on one hand and the pines around the newer subdivisions on the other. The result is a north or east slope that never quite dries, and that is where the black shows up.
The treatment is chemical, not mechanical. It goes on gently, sits, and kills the algae where it grows. On lighter shingle roofs that show black streaks early that matters, because pressure would take years off shingles that are already working hard. Moss and lichen release on their own over the following weeks.
The job is not done at the ridge. Gutters get flushed, newer concrete drives that show every stain get rinsed, and the beds under the drip line are wet down before and after so nothing the roof gives up lands on the plants.

On the ground in Lexington
Lexington is vinyl-sided subdivisions built since the 2000s, with lake houses along the shore, which means a roof cleaning job here usually involves the same few surfaces. Each one gets its own treatment.
- Lighter shingle roofs that show black streaks early: treated from the ladder and the edge, never walked more than needed.
- Black streaks: gone on the day. Thick moss and lichen turn white as they die and wash away with rain.
- Gutters: flushed of what the treatment brings down, so the runoff does not sit on newer concrete drives that show every stain.
- Plants below the eaves: pre-wetted and rinsed, runoff kept off the lawn.

Questions we get asked
How long does a clean roof last in Lexington?
Three to five years is typical. With the pines around the newer subdivisions, roofs under trees are at the shorter end.
Do you walk on the roof?
As little as possible. Most roofs are treated from the ladder and the edge. Walking on shingles is what causes the damage the cleaning is meant to prevent.
