Commercial TPO, EPDM, & PVC Low-Pressure Soft Wash Roof Maintenance by Maxx ECO Wash — Serving the Entire San Francisco Bay Area & Silicon Valley
​
Commercial roofing systems are designed to protect valuable assets, tenants, and operations—but in the San Francisco Bay Area, constant exposure to fog, coastal moisture, pollution, and debris accelerates roof deterioration. Without routine, manufacturer-approved maintenance, even the most advanced commercial roofing systems can fail prematurely.
​
We proudly serve commercial buildings, HOAs, property management firms, and facility operators throughout San Francisco, Marin County, on the Peninsula & San Mateo County, Silicon Valley, the East Bay, Alameda County, the South Bay, and San Jose.

Each roofing system requires material-specific cleaning chemistry and pressure control—which is why pressure washing is never recommended for commercial roofs.
​
Why TPO & EPDS Commercial Roofs in the San Francisco Bay Area Require Routine Soft Wash Maintenance
The Bay Area’s microclimate variability creates ideal conditions for roof contamination:
​
-
Coastal fog and marine layer moisture
-
Morning dew that lingers on flat and low-slope roofs
-
Airborne pollution and industrial fallout
-
Tree debris from redwoods, eucalyptus, and palms
-
Standing water around drains, scuppers, and seams
​
These conditions lead to:
​
-
Algae and biofilm growth
-
Mold and mildew colonies
-
Black streaking and staining
-
Membrane degradation
-
Blocked drainage pathways
-
Premature coating failure
​
Left untreated, biological growth retains moisture and accelerates membrane breakdown, seam failure, and insulation saturation.
Why Pressure Washing Is Unsafe for Commercial Roofing Systems
High-pressure cleaning can cause irreversible damage to commercial roofs by:
​
-
Compromising membrane seams and welds
-
Forcing water beneath roofing systems
-
Removing reflective and protective coatings
-
Shortening manufacturer warranty coverage
-
Accelerating leaks and insulation failure
​
Soft washing is the only manufacturer-approved cleaning method for TPO, EPDM, & PVC commercial membrane roofing systems.
