Roof cleaning and moss removal in Surrey

A soft-wash roof clean on a typical Surrey house is $550 before GST. Most roofs cost $550 to $750, and a hand-detail clean for heavy moss is typically $650. Large, steep or cedar roofs can reach $950 or more. These numbers come from 671 real Splash N Shine estimates written between August 2025 and November 2026.

All of Surrey, including Newton, Fleetwood, Guildford, Cloverdale, Panorama Ridge, Sullivan Heights, City Centre, South Surrey, Ocean Park, Crescent Beach, Grandview Heights and Morgan Creek.

Most Lower Mainland roofs stay clean for 2 to 4 years after a soft wash. Roofs under heavy tree cover, common in Panorama Ridge and Ocean Park, sit at the shorter end.

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.

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.

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.

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.

We protect the plants and garden beds under your roofline before any treatment goes on, and we use biodegradable solutions.

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.
