Roof Cleaning in Burnaby: what to expect
Burnaby presents its own particular challenges for roof cleaning. Homes near Burnaby Mountain and Deer Lake sit under heavy tree cover, so gutters clog fast in autumn and roofs green up quickly. A maintenance wash every 12–18 months keeps them clear. Because of that, every Burnaby roof cleaning visit begins with a proper look at your property: which way the roof faces, how much shade and tree cover it gets, the age and material of the surfaces, and how quickly moss, algae or grime tends to return in your part of town. Only then do we choose the gentlest method that does the job, so nothing gets damaged and the results last.
Whether your home is in Metrotown, Brentwood, Deer Lake or anywhere else in Burnaby, you get the same fully insured, background-checked crew and the same eco-friendly, biodegradable treatments we use right across the Lower Mainland.

Why Burnaby homeowners choose us for roof cleaning
Clear price up front
A typical soft-wash roof clean is $550 before GST. Heavy moss that needs hand removal is usually $650.
Never power washed
High pressure strips the granules off asphalt shingles. We use low pressure and let the cleaning solution do the work.
Kills growth at the root
The treatment kills moss and algae down to the root, so regrowth is much slower.
Plants protected
Garden beds and shrubs under the roofline are protected before any treatment goes on the roof.

Roof Cleaning in Burnaby: FAQs
Do you offer roof cleaning throughout Burnaby?

How much does roof cleaning cost in Langley and Surrey?
A soft-wash roof clean for a typical home is $550 before GST. A hand-detail clean, where thick moss is brushed off by hand first, is usually $650. Most roofs land between $550 and $750, and large, steep, cedar or heavily mossed roofs can reach $950 or more. These numbers come from 671 real Splash N Shine estimates written between August 2025 and November 2026. Our instant quote tool gives you a price in about a minute.
Should I clean my roof before winter?
Yes, fall is a good time. Moss that is treated before the winter rain stops holding water against your shingles through the wettest months of the year. We can clear the gutters at the same visit. A typical roof is $550 before GST. The treatment needs a few dry hours, so we book around the forecast.
What is soft wash roof cleaning?
Soft washing sprays a biodegradable cleaning solution onto the roof at low pressure. The solution kills moss, algae and lichen at the root, then the roof is rinsed gently. Nothing is blasted off, so the shingles keep their protective granules. For a typical home it costs $550 before GST.
Can you pressure wash a roof?
We never pressure wash shingles. High pressure strips the granules that protect asphalt shingles from the sun and can force water under the edges. Soft washing removes the moss and algae without that damage.
How long does moss stay away after roof cleaning?
Because the treatment kills moss and algae at the root, it comes back much more slowly than moss that is only scraped off. How long depends on shade and trees: roofs under heavy tree cover or on the shaded north side come back sooner.
Will the cleaning solution harm my plants?
We protect the plants and garden beds under your roofline before any treatment goes on, and we use biodegradable solutions.
Do you clean tile, cedar and metal roofs?
Yes. Soft washing is used on asphalt, cedar, tile and metal roofs, with the mix and pressure matched to the material. Cedar roofs often cost more than the $550 standard because of the extra care they need, so tell us the roof type when you ask for a quote.
