Commercial Roof Cleaning Experts

Clean Gutter Protection provides professional commercial roof cleaning services to property managers, building owners, HOAs, and businesses. Our soft wash process safely removes years of algae, mold, and biological buildup without damaging your roofing system.

Florida's subtropical climate is brutal on commercial roofs. Year-round humidity, summer thunderstorms, and warm temperatures create perfect conditions for algae, mold, and lichen that deteriorate roofing materials and cause premature failure.

Our commercial team is equipped and insured for buildings from small retail strips to warehouse complexes and multi-story offices.

Cleaning a commercial roof is not only cosmetic. Organic growth holds moisture against the surface and washes into drains and scuppers, and blocked drainage is a common cause of leaks on flat roofs.

Our Commercial Roof Cleaning Process

Commercial roof cleaning requires different expertise than residential work. Larger areas, specialized membranes, rooftop equipment, and strict safety requirements demand a professional team with commercial-grade capabilities. Here's how we handle every job.

What makes our commercial process different?

Step 1: Commercial Roof Assessment

Our team conducts a thorough inspection of your commercial roof, documenting problem areas, drainage issues, and the type of organic growth present. We assess membrane type (TPO, EPDM, modified bitumen, metal, tile) to determine the safest and most effective cleaning approach for your building.

Step 2: Safety Setup & Protection

Commercial roof cleaning requires strict safety protocols. We set up fall protection, secure access points, and protect HVAC units, skylights, and rooftop equipment. Building occupants and customers are never disrupted during the cleaning process.

Step 3: Low-Pressure Soft Wash Treatment

We apply cleaning solutions at low pressure to lift algae, mold, lichen and biological growth rather than blasting it off. Low pressure is the point: high-pressure washing is what strips granules and damages membranes. Tell us who holds your roof warranty and we will document the method we used for your records.

Step 4: Drainage & Gutter Check

While on the roof, we inspect and clear all drains, scuppers, and gutter systems. Clogged drainage is a leading cause of commercial roof leaks, so our cleaning process includes making sure water flows properly off your building.

Step 5: Documentation & Report

We provide before-and-after photos and a condition report for your records. Property managers and building owners receive documentation suitable for tenant communications, insurance records, and maintenance planning.

Every commercial roof cleaning includes a drainage inspection, before and after photos, and a written condition report at no extra charge.

Commercial Roof Types We Clean

Flat & Low-Slope Roofs

Flat & Low-Slope Roofs

Flat commercial roofs collect standing water and organic debris, creating ideal conditions for algae and mold in Florida's humid climate. Our soft wash process cleans TPO, EPDM, PVC, and modified bitumen membranes without compromising waterproof integrity.

Metal Commercial Roofs

Metal Commercial Roofs

Metal roofs on warehouses, retail buildings and industrial facilities develop oxidation, rust staining and algae streaks. We clean the panels without high pressure so coatings and fasteners are left intact.

Tile & Shingle Commercial Roofs

Tile & Shingle Commercial Roofs

Multi-family properties, HOA clubhouses and commercial buildings with tile or shingle roofs need cleaning that will not crack tiles or strip shingle granules. Low-pressure soft washing removes the black streaking and organic growth without walking a pressure wand across the surface.

Why Choose Us For Commercial Roof Cleaning

Commercial-Grade Equipment

Commercial-Grade Equipment

Built for Large-Scale Roof Cleaning

Large commercial roofs need equipment that can hold consistent coverage across the whole surface rather than working it a few hundred square feet at a time. We are set up for buildings at that scale, and we carry commercial liability insurance with a certificate available for your files.

Maintenance Costs Less Than Replacement

Algae, lichen and moss hold moisture against the roof surface and work into seams and fasteners. Cleaning them off is routine maintenance, and it is far cheaper than the repairs that follow when growth is left on a roof for years. Ask your roofer what your membrane manufacturer expects; most maintenance schedules include cleaning.

Commercial Roof Cleaning FAQ

How often should commercial roofs be cleaned?
Florida humidity and shade drive how fast growth comes back, so the right interval depends on the building. Roofs under tree cover or beside water usually need it more often than an exposed roof on an open lot. We can set up a recurring schedule and quote it in writing. Regular cleaning keeps algae, mold and organic material from building up on the membrane and washing into the drains, which is where most avoidable commercial roof leaks start.
Will soft washing void my commercial roof warranty?
Check your own warranty document, because the terms come from your roofing manufacturer and not from us. What we can tell you is what we do: low-pressure soft washing with cleaning solutions, not high-pressure blasting, on TPO, EPDM, PVC and modified bitumen systems. We will document the method, pressure and products used and give you that record for your warranty file. Many roof warranties also require the roof to be maintained, so keep the cleaning records either way.
Can you clean our roof without disrupting business operations?
We schedule around your hours. The work happens on the roof, so there is no scaffolding and no blocked entrances at ground level. For multi-tenant buildings we coordinate with property management and can provide advance notice you can pass on to tenants.
What's the difference between commercial and residential roof cleaning?
Commercial roof cleaning involves larger areas, different roofing materials (TPO, EPDM, metal panels), stricter safety requirements (OSHA fall protection), and specialized equipment built for scale. Commercial buildings also typically have rooftop HVAC, satellite equipment, and drainage systems that require careful protection during cleaning. Our commercial team is separately trained and equipped for these requirements. We carry commercial liability insurance and can provide certificates of insurance for property managers and building owners.
