Low Pressure Roof Cleaning in Kankakee, Bradley & Bourbonnais, IL
Green Pro Services | Expert Roof Cleaning You Can Trust
Your roof is one of the most critical—and expensive—parts of your home or business. But in Illinois, especially in areas like Kankakee , Bradley, and Bourbonnais, roofs are constantly exposed to the elements—moisture, moss, algae, mold, and debris. Over time, this exposure can not only ruin the appearance of your property but also damage your roofing materials.
That’s where Green Pro Services comes in. We offer professional, safe, and eco-friendly low pressure roof cleaning(also known as soft washing) to protect your investment and restore curb appeal—without the risk of damage that comes with high-pressure washing.
What Is Low Pressure (Soft Wash) Roof Cleaning?
Unlike traditional pressure washing, low pressure roof cleaning uses a combination of specialized cleaning solutions and a gentle water rinse to remove dirt, algae, mildew, moss, and other contaminants from your roof—without damaging shingles or underlayment.
This method is recommended by roofing manufacturers and is particularly effective on asphalt shingles, tile, and other delicate roofing materials. It not only cleans but also sanitizes your roof, preventing regrowth of harmful organisms.
Why Roofs in Kankakee, Bradley, and Bourbonnais Need Regular Cleaning
Roofs in Illinois experience dramatic temperature shifts, seasonal moisture, and tree coverage—perfect conditions for organic growth like:
- Gloeocapsa magma(the black streaks commonly seen on shingles)
- Moss and lichen, which retain moisture and eat away at shingles
- Algae and mildew, which discolor roofing and increase decay
Without regular cleaning, these growths can trap moisture and lead to:
- Shortened roof lifespan
- Increased energy bills (due to poor roof reflectivity)
- Stains that hurt your property value and curb appeal
Green Pro Services helps property owners across Kankakee, Bradley, and Bourbonnais protect their roofs with safe, effective cleaning that gets results.
