The 7-Point Checklist
Choosing the wrong roof cleaning company in Hialeah or Doral can void your warranty, damage your roof, or leave you unprotected if someone gets hurt. Here's what to verify:
- Verify licensing: Florida requires a specialty contractor license for pressure cleaning. Ask for their license number and verify with the state
- Confirm insurance: Request a Certificate of Insurance showing general liability ($1M+) and workers' compensation. If they don't have both, walk away
- Ask about method: The answer must be "soft wash." Pressure washing damages every roof type
- Check reviews: Look for 4+ star ratings on Google with at least 20 reviews. Check Angi and Yelp too
- Get a written estimate: Reputable companies provide detailed written estimates, not phone quotes
- Ask about guarantees: Look for 6–12 month algae-free warranties
- Verify local presence: Companies based in your area (not fly-by-night operations from out of town) are more accountable
Red Flags to Avoid
- Door-to-door solicitation with "today only" pricing
- No insurance certificate available on request
- Suggesting pressure washing your tile or shingle roof
- Cash-only payment with no receipt
- No online reviews or web presence
