There are many reasons why professional roof washing is essential for maintaining the health of your roof. Here are some key benefits:
At SHV Pressure Washing, we use a soft washing technique for roof cleaning, which is much gentler than traditional high-pressure washing. Here’s how our process works:
Before beginning any work, our team will carefully inspect your roof to assess its condition. We’ll check for any damage, areas of heavy algae or moss growth, and any other potential concerns. This helps us determine the best cleaning approach to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the process.
Once we’ve assessed your roof, we apply a specially formulated, eco-friendly cleaning solution to the affected areas. This solution is designed to break down algae, moss, and lichen without damaging your roofing materials. It also sanitizes your roof, preventing the regrowth of these organisms.
Unlike traditional pressure washing, we use soft washing to clean your roof. Soft washing uses a low-pressure water stream that is both effective and safe. It allows us to thoroughly clean the roof without the risk of damaging shingles, flashing, or underlayment.
After the cleaning solution has had time to work, we rinse your roof with clean water, ensuring that all debris, dirt, and cleaning solution are removed. We’ll then do a final inspection to make sure your roof is completely clean and in great condition.

Guilderland, a vibrant suburban town west of Albany, blends historic charm with modern suburban appeal. Named for the Dutch province of Gelderland, it was settled in the 17th century as a farming community, with remnants of its past preserved at sites like the Mynderse-Frederick House, a historic landmark. Today, Guilderland’s economy thrives on its commercial corridors, notably Crossgates Mall, a regional retail powerhouse drawing shoppers from across the Capital Region. The town also benefits from proximity to Albany’s government, healthcare, and tech sectors, making it a commuter haven. The Guilderland Central School District is a draw for families, known for academic excellence and robust arts and athletics programs. Housing options range from cozy mid-century homes to spacious new developments, with median prices reflecting the town’s desirability. Recreation is a cornerstone, with Tawasentha Park offering trails, a pool, and summer concerts, while the nearby Pine Bush Preserve provides unique ecosystems for hiking and nature study. Guilderland’s dining scene is diverse, from the cozy Capital City Diner to upscale eateries like Athos Restaurant, catering to varied tastes. Community events, such as the Guilderland Farmers Market and annual Fourth of July festivities, foster local pride. While traffic along Western Avenue can be a challenge, the town invests in infrastructure to ease congestion. Guilderland’s location near I-90 and I-87 ensures seamless access to Albany, Schenectady, and beyond, appealing to professionals and families alike. Cultural attractions, like the Guilderland Public Library’s community programs and nearby Altamont Fair, enrich the area. The town’s low crime rate and ample green spaces, including Western Turnpike Golf Course, enhance its livability. Guilderland faces the balancing act of growth versus preservation, particularly in protecting the Pine Bush, but its commitment to sustainability shines through. With a welcoming vibe and access to both urban amenities and natural beauty, like the nearby Helderberg Escarpment, Guilderland offers a high quality of life for residents seeking suburban comfort with a touch of history in the Capital Region.
