How we think about roof types

Roof photographs of terra-cotta, slate, composition, metal, and aluminum roofs.

Terra-cotta

Compare the same roof surface

Tile roofs require cautious foot traffic. Material, condition, slope, and the available access route all inform our cleaning approach.

Slate

Fragile pieces and foot traffic deserve care.

Composition shingle roof
03

Composition

Maker guidance and surface condition should guide cleaning; aggressive washing or brushing can create material and slip concerns.

Metal

Panel layout and safe footing matter.

Light-colored aluminum roof

Aluminum

Aluminum can be delicate and has its own considerations.

Access planning

Account for equipment on the roof

Jobs often call for routing safety equipment, hoses and thinking through footwork. Antennas, solar equipment, vents, etc. all get thought through.
