Roof cleaning in Hudson, FL
Hudson is home base, so a roof here is a short drive, not a special trip. Black streaks, grey film and green on the shaded side come off with a soft wash: low pressure and a cleaning solution, never a pressure washer on the roof.
What is on your roof, and what gets it off
Between the Gulf, the canals and the summer rain, Hudson roofs stay damp longer than most, and algae loves a damp roof. North-facing slopes and anything under an oak canopy usually show it first.
A lot of homes here, from the older neighborhoods near the coast to Beacon Woods, have shingle roofs that have been streaking for years. That staining comes off. A pressure washer is the wrong tool for it, because it takes the granules off along with the algae.
Several of the jobs on the main page are in Hudson: the lanai, the pool cage, the front walkway. A roof can be priced together with any of those and comes out better than booking them separately.

Real roofs, not stock photos
No pressure on the roof, ever
A firm number comes back, usually the same day. No site visit, and the number does not move once it is agreed.
Landscaping under the drip line is soaked first. The roof gets a cleaning solution that kills the algae at the root, then a low-pressure rinse.
Every job is photographed from the same spot before and after, and the photos are sent to you when it is done.
Got an HOA letter about your roof? It clears, or you don't pay for that service.
Send the notice with a photo of the roof. You will hear straight away whether washing clears it, before you are quoted.
If the association is still not satisfied, the roof gets re-treated at no charge, any time within 30 days of the job.
If washing cannot clear it, you are refunded for that service. No argument, no re-inspection fee.
Roof cleaning in Hudson: common questions
What are the black streaks on my roof?
Almost always a blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa magma. It lands as airborne spores, feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles, and turns dark as it builds a protective coating against the sun. That is why the streaks run downhill from the ridge and show worst on the north and shaded sides. It is not dirt and it is not age, and it does not rinse off.
Is roof cleaning safe for shingles?
Soft washing is. The asphalt roofing industry's own guidance is not to pressure wash shingles, and to clean them with a low-pressure bleach-based solution instead, which is what a soft wash is. Plants and landscaping get pre-wet and rinsed so the runoff does not burn them.
How much does roof cleaning cost?
Every roof is quoted on its own, because square footage, pitch, number of stories, material and how heavy the growth is all change the job. Text a photo of the roofline to (727) 809-1499 and a firm number comes back, usually the same day, with no site visit. That number does not move once it is agreed.
Will a roof cleaning clear an HOA notice?
If the notice is about roof staining, algae or mildew, yes, and that is guaranteed. If the association is still not satisfied, the roof gets re-treated free within 30 days. If washing cannot clear it, you are refunded for that service. If the notice is really about damage rather than staining, you will hear that before any quote.
How often should a roof be cleaned in Florida?
The algae comes back in this climate whether you treat it or not. A soft wash kills it at the root, so it stays clean far longer than a rinse would, and most roofs here want it every couple of years. Shaded slopes, roofs under trees and homes near water grow back sooner.
Do you come out to the Hudson coast and the canal homes?
Yes. Hudson is where the business is based, so the coast, the canal homes and everything out to US-19 and beyond is close.
