Drone cleaning in the Hammock.
The oceanfront and Intracoastal homes along the Hammock take more salt air and humidity than any roof inland, which is exactly why they streak and grow algae faster. Our drone lifts that growth off the roof without a single boot ever touching it, and without a lift parked in your drive.
We never walk your roof in the Hammock
Roofs across the Hammock are almost entirely tile, with a little metal and shingle, about 87% tile, and on these coastal homes the growth comes back fast. Both tile and metal are the wrong surfaces to walk: foot traffic cracks tile and voids warranties. Our drone does the reach instead, applying a soft-wash treatment from the air so the roof is cleaned at the right low pressure with no one standing on it.
Why roofs here grow black streaks
The dark streaks are Gloeocapsa magma, an algae that feeds on humidity and the limestone filler in shingles. In the A1A coastal communities of Hammock Dunes, Ocean Hammock, and Hammock Beach, salt air and tree cover feed it faster than it grows inland, which is why a once-and-done wash rarely holds.

- Screen enclosures and pool cages
- High soffits, fascia, and chimney caps
- 679 homes, almost entirely tile, with a little metal and shingle
- 47% are two-story or taller
- Typically built around 2016, median value about $851,655
- Median home around 4,602 sq ft under roof
How it works
We assess from the air
A quick flight shows us the roof type, the streaking, and the reach, so your estimate is real, not a guess from the curb.
Soft wash, applied aerially
A roof-safe treatment goes on at low pressure from the drone, lifting algae and organic growth without pressure-blasting your roof.
It keeps working after we leave
The treatment keeps breaking down growth over the following days, so the roof keeps lightening with no rinse-and-repeat scrubbing.

Common questions.
Do you walk on the roof to clean it?
No. The whole point of the drone is that no one stands on your roof. That protects your tile, your warranty, and our crew, especially on the taller homes in the Hammock.
Is drone soft washing safe for tile and metal?
Yes. We clean at low pressure with a roof-safe treatment, which is the correct method for tile, metal, and concrete. High-pressure washing is what damages these roofs, and we never use it on them.
How do you reach a two or three-story home?
From the air. The drone reaches gables, high walls, and roof planes that would otherwise need lifts or long ladders, so we clean hard-to-reach elevations without the extra equipment cost.
How often should a roof in the Hammock be cleaned?
Humidity and tree cover bring algae back, so most roofs here do best on a recurring schedule rather than a one-time wash. We can set that up so it never gets bad enough to notice.
