Residential Roof Washing

Clean Your Dirty Roof

Roof cleaning is an increasingly popular service that helps homeowners save thousands of dollars on roof replacement by preventing and killing bacterial, mold, and moss growth on roofs that eat away at the shingle. The black streaks on your roof isn’t dirt, but actually Gloeocapsa Magma; a bacteria that thrives on shingles and rooftops. It eats away at the roof, causing the shingles to curl and lose excessive amounts of shingle sand.

Our method for cleaning the roof is with our soft wash system that applies cleaning agents gently on the roof (garden hose pressure) to kill the growth and clean the roof. Our cleaning methods and chemicals are warranty approved by shingle manufacturers.

Never clean your roof with any pressure washers, they will damage your rooftop.

In August I had Softwash butler clean my aluminum siding, clean the gutters, and wash my windows. I have never been so pleased with a service as I was with window butler softwash.Billy started at 9:00 am and worked through until 9:00 pm finishing while it was getting dark.He was very professional and completely invested in making sure he did the best job possible. I would recommend Billy as a star employee and Window Butler Softwash as a very reliable reputable business. I have already recommended this company to a friend and will continue to do so. Well done, thank you Billy. 5 stars! Katherine Smillie
Response from the owner: Thank you for leaving us a review Katherine! Billy is a valuable employee that has been with us for many years. We appreciate you referring our services to your friends!
I placed a request for a quote on their website. They called my back within 15 minutes with a breakdown of their services and pricing. I was sent a quote via email and later was called to schedule an appointment. The guys were very professional and did a great job. Following their visit I received an invoice perfectly outlining the work. The invoice matched the quote, with no hidden costs or surprises along the way. I would recommend 👍
Response from the owner: Thank you for the review! We look forward to working with you again in the future.
Had my old house washed 2 days ago. The house is 70, siding is 40 and 10 respectively. I was concerned about damage with the age of the house. However Calvin took the time and effort to show me how it worked. I am most impressed with the outcome - she almost looks young again. Thank you to the whole crew for your efforts.
Response from the owner: Happy to have helped your 70 year old home look young again!
We had the honour of having Softwash Butler power wash our entire home as well as wash all of our windows. We were very leary with how the outside of our home washing would go as it is delicate stucco. Our results were amazing! Our home actually looks brand new, almost as though the whole house was repainted. The colour of our stucco is now mildew free, bright and brilliant. We actually had neighbours stop and ask if we had our home painted!!! The results were that good. The window washing service was excellent too! Not a single streak on any window and no smudges! The service technicians showed up promptly on time and worked straight through the day. No lying around or playing on their phones. They were there to get the job done and were professional and perfectionists! Thanks so much Softwash Butler, we will most certainly welcome you back to our home in the future!Kindness and appreciation for your great service,Kelly & Brady in Carp
Response from the owner: Thank you Kelly for this thorough review! We love what we do and love the reactions of neighbours when we work on a project and they see the results in real time.
Very professional, Great work, I can't say enough about how I feel about the results.DVC Steve
Response from the owner: Thank you for leaving us a review Steve!
Customer oriented company. Great communication. Come when they say they are going to com.Can’t believe they got the siding so clean, it was green and mouldy, pretty disgusting. Calvin spent a “few” hours applying solution and rinsing. They pre rinsed all the plants. Post rinsed all the plants. Totally recommend the work they do. Clean and tidy.We will call them back next year to clean our interlock patio’s.
Response from the owner: Thank you Dave for the review! We look forward to working with you again on your interlock patio.

Response from the owner: Thank you for this amazing review Henry! We really love what we do and love the reaction of our clients when they see their home look brand new again!
Everyone I dealt with was very professional and eager to help. I worked with an individual at the office (sorry, can't remember his name), who helped put together a package that met my needs and was affordable which included exterior window washing and gutter cleaning. The Technician, Nick, was polite in all interactions and thorough - he did a fantastic job and let me know what he found. Nick did recommended additional services, with absolutely no pressure to buy. I am so glad I did the fence and deck cleaning - I thought they needed to be replaced, apparently just needed to be cleaned; this definitely extended their life. Thanks!
Response from the owner: We appreciate your business and the review! Happy to hear Tyler at the office was able to provide you the package you were looking for, and that Nick gave great advice while onsite completing the project!
Accommodating & Job well done - Logan!, sparkling finish on the windows and what a difference on the siding!would recommend these guys to all.

What a difference in my windows and siding after Nick was finished! It's like night and day. He even rinsed off my concrete patio after the washing was done. He was efficient, friendly and professional. He even entertained my dog who was watching him through the living room window 🙂 Thank so much Nick!

I ran into these guys at the Home Show at the EY centre.Needed my soffat and siding washed as it was getting dirty.There were a few companies to choose from all of which use high pressure washers to clean the house.(Not my favorite method). These guys here use mild chemichals and low pressure in order to complete their cleaning services. I left my info with one of their reps. The following week, as promised, I was contacted with a quote and we made an appointment to have the work done. One week prior to the appointment I was contacted via E-mail to confirm the date. Also received a reminder call the day before. Got home after work the day of the cleaning to do my inspection. Very nice work! The siding looked like the day it was put on. The also cleaned my windows (congrats on the upsell) which were also sparkling clean. Next day I received the invoice with the exact price quoted, (no surprises). Very organized and professional company. I will use again in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone. Happy customer, keep it up! Thanks guys!!
Response from the owner: Thank you for the review Christof! We are happy to have connected with you at the Home Show and appreciate the recommendations!
The first week of November was cold and sunny. WindowButler arrived at our house early and, despite the cold, worked outside tirelessly until late afternoon to clean all our 73 windows. The house is 35 feet high & it's a big job. Every window was cleaned. We couldn't be happier with the friendly, thorough work. Thank you, Window Butler.
Response from the owner: We appreciate the business, and happy we could get this job done well for you despite the cold temperatures
Had my siding/exterior of my house cleaned. They did an amazing job, night and day from before to after. Great attention to detail and very informative the whole way through. Would highly recommend
Response from the owner: Thanks Adam, we look forward to working with you again in the future!
Nick and Logan showed up at the hour they promised, and they did an excellent job. This house had been neglected and really needed to be "spiffed" up. Once the job was complete, they went over it with me and I was amazed at how everything looked so clean. Air vents that were grey are now a pristine white - like new! I thought I needed to replace them but now I am sure I don't need to. Thank you, Nick and Logan, for going the extra mile and making our "new to us" house look new.
Response from the owner: Thank you for your business and we look forward to working with you again!
Logan and Nick arrived on time, worked steadily and efficiently while here, and we were delighted with the finished job (siding, soffits, windows). They took the time to do a walk around with us at the beginning, asking us to identify any specific areas of concern. When finished, we did another walk around and they asked us to identify anything they might have missed. We were impressed. They met all of our expectations. We would not hesitate to have them back in future and/or to recommend Softwash Butler to others.

We have a log home with a steep metal roof. It hadn't been cleaned for a number of years and there was no way I was going up on the roof to clean it.Softwash Bulter came out and did an excellent job of making the roof look like new again.The crew had never cleaned a metal roof before but rather than just "go for it" they took the time to call back to headquarters and verify the procedure before tackling the job.There was one small area that didn't get cleaned totally the first time but I called them back and they came out without any issue to re-clean that area.I would definitely call them back to clean my roof and will probably call them in the spring for my windows.Thanks for the good job guys.
Response from the owner: Thank you for this review Gavin! We pride ourselves on making sure our customers are 100% satisfied with the work!
Nick and Logan were friendly, courteous and efficient. They did a great job of cleaning the long-neglected siding of our house. It went from a mucky gray to white in no time. Their window cleaning was excellent too.

Response from the owner: Thank you for the review. Glad it turned out as well as it did!
Friendly, efficient and great results!
Response from the owner: Thank you for your feedback, very much appreciated!
Had terrible Algae damage on our 10 year old roof. Found Softwash Butler on the internet so I contacted Alex. They came last week and did the $ 800 job. I called the next day and stated the staining was still there.He explained that they had had an issue with their solution and that they would return this week to remedy the problem. They did. The guys said they would stay until problem resolved, and they did. They applied 3 more treatments and did so rigorously. Problem solved and roof looks brand new. I was skeptical at first but am now a believer. Thumbs up!
Response from the owner: Hi Vincent, thank you for your review and for your patience with us! We really appreciate it and are glad we were able to get it looking the way it should.
Excellent work.
Response from the owner: Thank you for the review!

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning
Is your roof dirty?

Restore the look of your roof

The Softwash Butler Difference

1. We use a low-pressure method that will not damage your asphalt shingles or void your roof’s warranty.

2. We use only environmentally safe and EPA-compliant cleaning agents (OHSA and environmental compliance).

3. We use biodegradable proprietary solution that includes special detergents to kill organic growth at the root.

4. We take every reasonable precaution to prevent damage to plants, shrubs, grass, and trees in surrounding areas. We will thoroughly wet all plants, including grass, shrubs, and trees. Remember the algae, mold, or lichen growing on your roof is a plant and must be killed at the root, or it can grow back in no time.

5. We post-treat your home, plants, shrubs, grass, and trees with a high-quality neutralizer and surfactant. Ideal for rinsing washed surfaces to prevent damage to sensitive siding and plants.
