(337) 408-1089Commercial Roof Soft-Wash — Lafayette Area
Commercial roof softwash in Acadiana removes algae, moss, and biological growth from flat and low-slope membranes safely — without the seam and membrane damage that pressure washing causes. Acadiana's heat and humidity drives biological growth aggressively on commercial single-ply and modified bitumen roofs, especially on shaded sections of multi-story Oil Center medical-office buildings and Cajundome-corridor commercial. Brown's Roofing uses biodegradable, membrane-safe cleaning solutions that kill growth at the root and restore reflectivity.
What to Expect From Brown's Roofing

- Algae, moss, and biological growth eliminated at the root
- Restored membrane reflectivity — reduces solar heat gain and cooling costs
- No risk to seams, flashings, or membrane from high-pressure water
- Post-treatment condition report with before/after photos

FAQ
Commercial Roof Soft-Wash FAQ — Lafayette
- Yes — pressure washing damages single-ply membrane seams, lifts flashings, drives water under the membrane, and frequently voids manufacturer warranties. Carlisle, GAF, Firestone, Sika, and other major manufacturers explicitly disallow high-pressure washing on warranted systems. We use low-pressure softwash with biodegradable solutions specifically because that's the manufacturer-approved cleaning method.
- Softwash kills existing growth at the root, but airborne spores reseed roof surfaces over time. In Acadiana's humidity, most commercial roofs benefit from softwash every 2–4 years to control regrowth. We schedule the next visit based on growth rate observed at the prior treatment.
- Yes, on structurally sound roofs. Softwash extends service life of aging single-ply and Mod-Bit roofs by reducing biological-growth-driven membrane degradation. On a roof that's already failing structurally, softwash is cosmetic — replacement or coating is the right scope.
- Yes — softwash is well-suited to medical-office and hospital commercial properties where building appearance, tenant comfort, and energy performance all matter. Biodegradable, low-pressure cleaning is compatible with most healthcare-facility requirements. We document the work in the format facility management requires.
