Gutter Cleaning
Gutters hand-cleared of fir needles, leaves, and debris, downspouts flushed, so water flows where it should.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning
Soft washing is how a roof should be cleaned. Instead of high pressure that tears granules off your shingles, we apply roof-safe cleaning solutions that kill moss, algae, and mildew at the root, then rinse gently. It's the method roofing manufacturers recommend, and it's the foundation of every roof we clean.
Pressure washing and soft washing are not the same thing, and on a roof the difference matters enormously. High pressure physically blasts the surface, and on asphalt shingles that means stripping away the protective granules that give your roof its life span, forcing water under the courses, and often voiding the manufacturer's warranty. Soft washing takes the opposite approach: low pressure, roughly a garden-hose flow, paired with professional cleaning solutions that dissolve and kill the organic growth.
Because soft washing kills moss and algae at the root rather than just knocking off the visible layer, the results last far longer, too. Brisk uses the soft-wash method on asphalt, tile, and metal roofs alike, adjusting the solution and approach to the material. Your plants and landscaping are protected and rinsed throughout, and you're left with a clean roof and shingles that are exactly as sound as the day we arrived.

Call (360) 803-2075What is soft washing?
Soft washing is a roof and exterior cleaning method that uses low pressure (about the force of a garden hose) combined with professional cleaning solutions. The solutions do the real work, killing moss, algae, and mildew at the root, so there's no need for the damaging high pressure that harms shingles.
Why is soft washing better for my roof?
High pressure strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles, can force water under the courses, and voids most manufacturers' warranties. Soft washing cleans just as thoroughly without any of that risk, and because it kills the growth at the root, your roof stays clean longer.
Does soft washing work on all roof types?
Yes. We soft wash asphalt and composition shingle, tile, and metal roofs, matching the solution and technique to the material. It's the safe, effective choice across the board. We do not service cedar shake roofs.
