Why Moss Is a Problem

The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association (ARMA) warns that moss can cause shingle edges to “lift or curl” and, in severe cases, contribute to roof-deck moisture damage and leaks.

Oregon State University Extension similarly warns that moss can “lift shingles and allow water to penetrate and damage underlying layers.”

Our Four-Step Process

Heavy moss growth in the keyways of an asphalt shingle roof in Medford, Oregon

1. Inspect & Protect

We inspect the roof and map where the growth is heaviest. Before anything is applied, we pre-wet and cover the landscaping below.

2. Clear the Loose Moss

Remove the loose moss debris by hand, and clear anything that got in the gutters. No harsh scrubbing, no pressure washing, no damage.

3. Apply the Solution

A low-pressure soft-wash application — applied by an ODA-licensed commercial pesticide applicator — kills moss, lichen, and algae at the root.

4. Let Time Finish It

The moss dies within days, and over the following months, normal rainfall carries the dead growth off your roof. No scraping, no shingle damage.

FAQ

Will the treatment damage my roof?

No. We apply at low pressure, which is what asphalt shingle manufacturers recommend. Pressure washing and scrubbing are what strip granules and shorten roof life.

The moss dies within days and turns brown. Rainfall carries it off over the following two to four months. If you’re expecting a roof that looks new the afternoon we leave, we’re not the right fit — nobody can do that without damaging your shingles.

We control overspray, wet down nearby plants before we start, and neutralize and rinse anything that gets contact. Keep pets indoors during the visit and for a few hours after.

No, as long as we have access to the roof and an outdoor water spigot.

Most Rogue Valley roofs need treatment every three to five years, depending on shade and tree cover. North-facing slopes come back faster.

Every roof is different — pitch, square footage, how much growth. Quotes are free and we’ll give you several options.
