Restore the natural beauty of your cedar shake roof with our safe, specialized treatment process — no pressure, no damage, guaranteed.
Cedar shake roofs are among the most beautiful — and most misunderstood — roofing materials in Central Ohio. They're also the most commonly damaged by improper cleaning.
Cedar is a natural, porous wood. High-pressure washing splits the shakes, shreds the wood fibers, strips the natural oils, and dramatically shortens the roof's lifespan. We've seen homeowners spend thousands on repairs after hiring a pressure washer who didn't know better or just flat out didn't care.
Our cedar roof cleaning process uses a specially formulated, biodegradable treatment solution applied at low pressure. It kills the algae, moss, lichen, and mold at the root — without touching the wood fibers that give cedar its strength and beauty. It also adds oils back into the shakes in order to bring the oil content back to around 3%.
We respond within minutes. No obligation.
We fly a drone to photograph every inch of your cedar roof, identifying all problem areas and assessing the severity of bio-growth before we start.
We apply our cedar-safe biodegradable solution from a ladder using low-pressure equipment. No one walks on your roof. The solution penetrates and kills growth at the root.
We gently rinse the roof and do a final drone inspection to confirm complete coverage. Your quality commitment starts the moment we're finished.
