Life's Dirty. Clean Easy.

Mike’s Secret Weapon for Roof Maintenance is Wet & Forget

Wet & Forget cleans a tile roof.

Mike K. wanted a better and safer method to clean the black streaks on his roof. Roof maintenance is something he takes seriously because he knows not caring for it can cause long-term problems to arise. 

In the past, Mike used power washers and bleach mixtures to clean his roof. Although it removed the stains, he knew that power washing and bleach could damage the roofing material with long-term use.

The previous owners of the home hired a contractor to power wash for roof maintenance. But Mike and his wife were not fond of that idea. 

Mike and his wife didn’t like the idea of people walking on the roof, which could cause damage to his barrel tile roof. Plus, hiring a contractor can be costly. 

That’s when he decided to browse the web and see what his other options were. 

“We decided to find a different solution or approach because it’s safer for the people power washing and for the tiles” -Mike K. Fort Pierce, FL.


That’s when Wet & Forget Xtreme Reach™ Hose End appeared. The Xtreme Reach™ nozzle sprays up to 30 feet high, which meant that no one would have to walk around on the roofing. Thus, not risking their safety nor damaging the barrel roof tiles.

Simply attach the Wet & Forget Xtreme Reach™ bottle to the end of your garden hose and spray!

The best part- Mother Nature does the rest once Wet & Forget has been applied. So, there’s no rinsing or scrubbing the roofing afterward. 

“It was the one product that kept popping up in the searches” -Mike K.


Mike thought the constant search results and pricing of the product seemed fair for the results that would follow. So, he decided to give it a chance.

Mike sprayed down half of his black-streaked roof. Doing so allowed him to compare his roofing before and after the use of Wet & Forget. 

Two weeks passed, and there were no visible results. So, Mike thought that “it was a dumb product” and decided to forget about it. 

However, he noticed the difference eight weeks later. 

“At first, I thought this product doesn’t work. But, about eight weeks later, I noticed that half my roof was clean and other was not” -Mike K.


Once Mike saw the difference, he grabbed his Wet & Forget Xtreme Reach™ Hose End and sprayed the other half of his roof to finish up his roof maintenance.

If it worked so well on the roof, what else could he clean and brighten up? So, Mike thought of other exterior surfaces to clean with Wet & Forget. 

His canvas grill cover came to mind because there were some dark spots forming. He also decided to treat his driveway pavers and walkways because of the green growth forming in between the pavers.

During the next several weeks, the exterior surfaces Mike treated were returning to their former color.

The grill cover began to brighten up after 3 weeks. While the driveway and walkway pavers took a little over a month to clean up.

“It’s a great product! It definitely takes time to work, but it really works” -Mike K.

Although Wet & Forget can keep moss, mold, mildew, and algae away for up to 12 months, Mike maintains his home’s sparkling appearance with bi-annual applications. 

What once was a dreadful homeowner chore became more manageable. Moreover, it was less expensive to do it himself.

He even had neighbors ask about how he got his roof to stay so clean!

“When or if my neighbors ask about my roof, I tell them Wet & Forget” -Mike K.

Mike and his wife don’t have to worry about roof maintenance procedures anymore. They can rely on Wet & Forget to get the job done.

Mike and his wife said goodbye to bleach and power washing for roof maintenance. Are you ready to say goodbye?
