Why Kissimmee Homeowners Trust Us With Their Roof
If your roof in Kissimmee has dark streaks, green patches, or moss creeping along the shingles, you do not need a new roof — you need a proper roof cleaning. We use a low-pressure soft wash that kills the algae, mold, moss, and lichen at the root, then gently rinses it away. The result is a roof that looks years younger and stays clean far longer than a quick surface rinse.
AB Superior Wash is local and owner-operated, right here in Kissimmee. We are not a national franchise reading off a script. We know exactly what Central Florida's heat, humidity, and afternoon storms do to a roof, and we clean it the way the roofing industry actually recommends — chemistry first, pressure never.
Every roof we touch is treated like it is the only one that matters that day. We protect your landscaping, we respect your warranty, and we back the work with our 100% satisfaction guarantee.
What Makes Us Different:
- Soft wash only — we never put high pressure on a roof
- We treat the algae at the root so streaks do not come back in months
- We pre-wet and rinse your plants and landscaping before and after
- Licensed, fully insured, and owner-operated in Kissimmee
- Firm, no-obligation quote up front — no surprise add-ons
We also clean more than roofs. Ask us about our soft wash house washing in Kissimmee, gutter cleaning to clear the debris algae feeds on, and driveway and concrete pressure washing — bundle them and we will handle the whole exterior in one visit.
Free Roof Inspection & Quote
We look at the roof type, pitch, and how heavy the algae and staining are, then give you a firm price up front — no obligation.
Protect Landscaping
Before we start, we pre-wet and rinse the plants, shrubs, and grass around the house so the cleaning solution is diluted and washed away safely.
Low-Pressure Soft Wash
We apply a roof-safe cleaning solution that kills algae, mold, moss, and lichen at the root. The chemistry does the work — no scrubbing, no high pressure.
Gentle Rinse & Final Check
A soft rinse clears everything away. We walk the property with you, rinse the landscaping again, and make sure you are happy before we leave.
Soft Washing vs. Pressure Washing a Roof
This is the single biggest misconception about roof cleaning. A roof should never be pressure washed. Here is what each method actually does to your roof.
Soft Washing
Low-pressure application of a cleaning solution that kills the growth at the root, followed by a gentle rinse. This is the only method we use on a roof — and it is what the roofing industry recommends.
- Kills algae, mold, moss & lichen at the root
- Keeps the protective granules on the shingles
- Safe for tile, metal, and flat roofs too
- Keeps your shingle manufacturer warranty intact
- Results last far longer than a surface rinse
Pressure Washing
High-pressure water aimed at a roof. It might look clean for a day, but it damages the roof in ways you pay for later. We will never do this to your roof.
- Strips the protective granules off asphalt shingles
- Cracks and dislodges concrete and clay tile
- Forces water up under the roofing
- Voids most shingle manufacturer warranties
- Only rinses the surface — algae roots survive and regrow
Every Roof in Central Florida We Clean
We soft wash every common roofing material in the Kissimmee and Orlando area. The low-pressure method stays the same — we adjust the cleaning solution and technique to the material.
Asphalt Shingle
The most common roof in Central Florida and the one algae loves most. We lift the black streaks without disturbing the protective granules.
Concrete & Clay Tile
Common on Kissimmee and Celebration homes. Tile must never be pressure washed — our soft wash cleans it without cracking or dislodging a single tile.
Metal Roofing
Standing-seam and panel metal roofs clean up beautifully with a soft wash that protects the finish and the coating.
Flat & Low-Slope
Flat and low-slope roofs trap moisture and grow algae fast. We treat and rinse them safely with the same low-pressure approach.
Moss & Lichen Removal
Heavy moss and lichen on north-facing or shaded sections get killed at the root so they release and wash away over the following weeks.
Black Streak Removal
Those dark stains are Gloeocapsa magma algae. We remove them at the source, not just off the surface, so they stay gone.
Why Professional Roof Cleaning Beats DIY Every Time in Florida
Roof cleaning is not a rent-a-machine weekend job. Walking a wet roof is dangerous, and the wrong method causes damage that costs thousands to fix. Here is how the two compare.
| Factor | AB Superior Wash | DIY / Rental |
|---|---|---|
| Method | ✓ Low-pressure soft wash, roots killed | ✗ Pressure washer rinses the surface only |
| Roof damage risk | ✓ No granule loss, no cracked tile | ✗ Strips granules, cracks tile, voids warranty |
| How long it stays clean | ✓ 1–3 years — algae killed at the root | ✗ Weeks to months — algae regrows |
| Safety | ✓ Trained, insured, proper fall protection | ✗ A wet roof is one of the most dangerous places to stand |
| Landscaping | ✓ Plants pre-wet and rinsed, protected | ✗ Runoff can burn plants and grass |
| If something goes wrong | ✓ Licensed & fully insured in Florida | ✗ Damage and injury are on you |
Results That Speak For Themselves
A Clean Roof Is Far Cheaper Than a New One
Algae, moss, and lichen do not just look bad — they shorten the life of your roof. Letting the growth spread is the most expensive thing you can do.
That is what a full roof replacement runs in our area. A routine soft wash extends the life of the roof you already have and delays that expense.
Gloeocapsa magma feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. Left untreated it spreads across the whole roof and breaks down the surface over time.
Some Florida insurers flag stained or algae-covered roofs at inspection. A clean roof helps you avoid condition-related issues and shows better when you sell.
What Kissimmee Homeowners Are Saying
"Our roof was covered in black streaks and we thought we'd need it replaced. AB Superior soft washed it and it looks brand new. No pressure on the shingles, and they covered all our plants first."
"Alejandro explained why you never pressure wash a tile roof and did the whole thing the right way. Tiles are spotless and not a single one was cracked. Honest and professional."
"Booked them the same week, fair price, and the streaks are completely gone. They also did our house and gutters in the same visit. Will use again every year."

Why Florida Roofs Streak and Stain So Fast
If you have lived in Central Florida for a few years, you have seen it: a roof that was clean when the house was built slowly going dark, with long black streaks running down the slope. Those streaks are not dirt and they are not soot. They are a hardy blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa magma that feeds on the limestone filler manufacturers add to asphalt shingles. Our heat, humidity, and daily summer storms are exactly the conditions it loves, which is why roofs here stain far faster than roofs up north.
Rain will not wash it off. Left alone, it spreads across the whole roof, holds moisture against the shingles, and shortens the life of the roof. The good news is that it is very treatable when you use the right method — and the right method is never a pressure washer.
The Soft Wash Method — and Why We Never Pressure Wash a Roof
The Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommends low-pressure chemical cleaning to remove algae from shingles, not high-pressure washing. You can read their guidance in the ARMA technical bulletins on roof cleaning and algae. That is exactly how we work. We apply a roof-safe cleaning solution that kills the algae, mold, moss, and lichen at the root, let the chemistry do the work, then rinse gently at low pressure.
Pressure washing a roof does the opposite of what you want. It blasts the protective granules off asphalt shingles, cracks and dislodges tile, forces water up under the roofing, and voids most shingle manufacturer warranties. It might look clean for a day, but you have traded a cosmetic problem for an expensive structural one. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency also encourages responsible cleaning practices that keep wash water and chemicals out of storm drains, which our low-volume soft wash approach is built around — see the EPA's guidance on runoff and nonpoint source pollution.
Protecting Your Roof, Your Warranty, and Your Landscaping
A soft wash protects three things at once. It protects the roof, because there is no force to strip granules or crack tile. It protects your warranty, because you are cleaning the roof the way the manufacturers ask. And it protects your landscaping, because we pre-wet and rinse the plants, shrubs, and grass before and after so the cleaning solution is always diluted and washed away.
There is a Florida insurance angle worth knowing too. Some carriers in our state inspect roofs and flag ones that are heavily stained or covered in algae as a condition concern. We are not insurance advisors, so always confirm the details with your carrier — but keeping the roof clean is a simple way to avoid giving an inspector something to flag.
