How does one go about cleaning an asbestos tile roof? This roof is almost 70 years old and I believe it has asbestos in it. It is legal to get this roof power washed? The roof was originally light gray, now it is covered in mold, mildew, lichens, dirt, and algae and it has basically turned black. Is there a safe and legal way to restore the roof to near its original color by removing the gunk?

I have cleaned asbestos roofs w/o pressure before, but thhey take very strong solutions to get clean, and don't always come out perfect.
Definitely a nice soft wash will take care of this for you no problem. Just make sure whoever you hire is indeed doing a soft wash as to not damage the roof with the pressure.
