Roof Cleaning for your Wilmington Island property
Wilmington Island sits on Savannah's east side between the Wilmington River and the tidal marsh, where homes take direct salt air off the water on every surface. Docks, screened porches, paver drives, and roofs collect a heavy chalky salt film and grow dark mildew fast in the shade of the live oaks, and the humidity here rarely lets a north wall dry out. The older ranch homes and the newer waterfront builds alike need frequent, gentle attention to fight that constant marsh-and-salt buildup. A low-pressure soft-wash is the only safe way to clear it from delicate island finishes without driving salt and water behind the siding.
Proud to serve the Chatham County area.
How we get roof cleaning right
The dark streaks bleeding down so many Savannah roofs are a living organism, the cyanobacteria Gloeocapsa magma, and our heat, humidity, and shade are exactly what it feeds on. Under a canopy of live oaks dripping Spanish moss it comes back fast, and it takes hold on asphalt shingle across Ardsley Park, Isle of Hope, and the Southside subdivisions within a season or two. High pressure has no place on a roof: it strips the granules off shingles and can crack or dislodge tile and slate. We treat a roof instead with a low-pressure soft wash at less than garden-hose force, letting a cleaning solution kill the algae, lichen, and moss at the root before a soft rinse clears it. The same careful chemistry works on the metal and older roofs common downtown, where a single misstep is expensive. Closer to the marsh and the river, where salt speeds the regrowth, most Savannah roofs want this attention every year or two to stay clean without ever being walked or blasted.
Every Wilmington Island job starts with an upfront, flat quote and finishes with workmanship you can count on.
