Roof Cleaning Cost
/Four factors will measure the price that you receive. We encourage consumers to reach out to multiple providers and “we will beat or match any written estimate”.
Four main details that we will take into consideration before presenting an estimate.
Pitch of the Roof
The pitch, or steepness, of the roof, determines how the roof can be cautiously cleaned. The pitch is interpreted as how many inches the roof increases vertically for every 12 inches of horizontal run. The higher the pitch, the less likely it that our technician will actually place a foot on the roof. Any pitch higher than 9/12 is recognized to be steep. Most residential homes are designed with inclinations between 4/12 and 9/12. For steep roofs, our technicians will try to restrain their interval walking on the roof. This means your roof will require either a lift or ladder setups encompassing the home to effectively be cleaned. A lift will cost upwards of $700 per day, additional ladder setups will also raise the price as it will take longer to achieve the cleaning.
Roof Material
Asphalt or concrete roofs are more straight-forward to clean as the technicians can move more freely about the surface. With a tile roof, each step must be careful and measured so as to no break tiles. A cedar room will require special shoes called corkers. Since a cedar roof is more fragile and can be easily damaged, working on the roof should be avoided to the greatest extent possible.
Condition of the Roof
Most professionals will want to see the roof to gauge their current condition. Expect to pay more if it has been years since anything has been done to the roof. If an extensive brushing needs to be done, you will be charged for this work. The more time on the roof that is needed, the greater the surcharge.
The overall complexity of the Job
Understand access to water (to hook up equipment), ability to reach the roof (vegetation or other obstacles), and general height, steepness, and layout of the roof. Roofs with multiple ledges or outcroppings will be more laborious to clean and thus require more time.
