The time it takes to clean a roof in Miami depends on several factors, including the roof’s size, type, pitch, condition, and the method used. On average, a standard residential roof cleaning takes between 2 to 4 hours. Homes with tile or shingle roofs in areas like Coral Gables, Brickell, and The Roads often fall within this range.

If we’re performing a soft wash roof cleaning, which involves applying a biodegradable solution and allowing it to dwell before a gentle rinse, the process may take slightly longer than traditional pressure washing. Tile roofs with years of algae or black streak buildup might also require a two-step application to fully eliminate organic growth.

Roofs with steep pitches, multiple levels, or those in shaded areas prone to moss can take up to 5 hours, especially if safety equipment and access routes are more complex. Conversely, small single-story homes with basic gable roofs can be cleaned in less than 2 hours.
