Roof Cleaning for your Winter Haven property
The Chain of Lakes keeps the air over Winter Haven warm and wet, and that is exactly what grows the black algae streaks you see on roofs from Central Park to the lakefront. Our low-pressure soft-wash kills it at the root so shingles stay clean for years, not weeks.
Winter Haven, FL at a glance
Winter Haven, the Chain of Lakes City and home of Legoland Florida, is laced with more than 50 connected lakes just east of Lakeland. All that water keeps humidity high and coaxes algae, mildew, and black streaks onto roofs, lanais, and pavers across town, from the historic homes near Central Park to the lakefront properties on Lake Howard and Lake Silver. Regular soft-washing keeps Winter Haven exteriors bright between the summer rains.
Permit questions and utility details for this side of the chain go through the City of Winter Haven.

How we get roof cleaning right
Those black streaks bleeding down Central Florida roofs are not dirt, they are Gloeocapsa magma, a cyanobacteria that thrives in exactly the warm, wet, humid air that sits over Polk County most of the year. It feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and can shave years off a roof if left alone. High pressure would strip the granules and void your warranty, so we never do that. Instead we soft wash with a targeted algaecide that kills the organism at the root and rinses gently, safe for shingle, concrete tile, and metal alike. Roofs shaded by oaks streak fastest, because the canopy holds moisture on the north slope long after the sun has dried the rest. We treat the whole roof, brighten it evenly, and can set up a plan to keep it clear so it stops aging prematurely.
Every Winter Haven job starts with an upfront, flat quote and finishes with workmanship you can count on.
