Local conditions
El Portal surfaces
El Portal is half a square mile of oak canopy between NE 2nd Avenue and the Little River, and the trees in the Sherwood Forest section run about seventy five feet tall. Very little direct sun reaches the ground, so driveways, walkways and north walls hold a green film right through the wet season, and acorns and oak litter fill gutters faster than rain can move them. The village has been a state designated bird sanctuary since the 1950s, so droppings on a shaded slab are part of the work here.
[ Roof cleaning in El Portal ]
Every roof we clean in El Portal gets soft washed. The canopy keeps tile and shingle damp for most of the year, so black algae takes hold across a whole slope instead of streaking down from the ridge. We put cleaning solution on at low pressure, give it time to work through the growth, then rinse the roof out slope by slope until the surface runs clear.
Branches sit right over most roofs in this village, and the valleys collect leaves and acorns that hold water against the tile. We clear those valleys first so the rinse has somewhere to go. Plants at the drip line get wet down before and after, which matters here because the yards are planted heavily and the trees are protected by village code. The roof finishes even rather than clean in patches.

Before you call
Roof cleaning questions
If yours is not here, call or text 786-985-1684 and ask.
What does roof cleaning cost in El Portal?
It depends on the surface, the square footage and how much growth or staining is on it, so we quote each El Portal job on its own instead of posting prices. Text a photo to 786-985-1684 and we will come back with one number.
Which parts of El Portal do you cover?
All of it: Sherwood Forest, El Jardin, the original El Portal plat, NE 2nd Avenue and the rest of 33138 and 33150. If you are just outside, text the address and we will tell you straight.
How far is El Portal from your base?
About 8 minutes north, up NE 2nd Avenue. We are based in Miami and group El Portal jobs together, so ask for the next day we are out that way.
How often does roof cleaning need doing in El Portal?
El Portal is half a square mile of oak canopy between NE 2nd Avenue and the Little River, and the trees in the Sherwood Forest section run about seventy five feet tall. Most surfaces are ready again after about a year; shaded and sprinkler-hit ones sooner. Text a photo and we will tell you if it is time.
Do you pressure wash roofs?
No, and nobody should. High pressure strips shingle granules, cracks and shifts tile and pushes water under both. Roofs get a soft wash: low pressure and a solution that kills the algae. Text a photo to 786-985-1684 and we will tell you what yours needs.
Is the solution safe for my plants?
Yes, when the job is done right. We wet the plants before we start, manage the runoff during the wash and rinse everything again at the end. Tell us about anything rare or sensitive when you text 786-985-1684 and it gets covered.
