Roof Cleaning in Franklin, TN
Those black streaks on your shingles are algae, and they feed on the roof itself. We remove them with a no-pressure soft wash that's safe for asphalt shingles and cleans them without the damage pressure washing causes.

Why never pressure wash a roof
Pressure knocks the protective granules off shingles and can void manufacturer warranties. Soft washing applies a cleaning solution at low pressure that kills algae and moss, then rinses clean.
Homes, churches and businesses
We clean residential roofs as well as larger church and commercial roofs across Middle Tennessee.
Longer-lasting results
Because the growth is killed rather than just rinsed, streaks stay away far longer — and the whole house looks newer from the street.
What's included
- Asphalt shingle roofs
- Black streak and algae removal

What customers say
"First Class Cleaning washed our entire church building roof to ground. The building had built up quite a bit of algae and mildew over the years. It now looks brand new. The guys worked with our preschool and ministry schedule. They got the job done quickly and at a fair price."

"I used First Class Pressure Cleaning to seal my aggregate driveway and they did a fantastic job. It was in rough shape as we had never sealed it before. Lots of salt damage as well from trying to de-ice the last winter storm. It looks so much better now. They even came back the next day for touch-ups on some areas where the winter salts had worn through to the concrete. Very happy with this company and the work they’ve done!"
