Roof Cleaning

The importance for a clean roof goes beyond curb appeal. Its not just dirt, moss, algae, and lichen.

Reducing Weight:

Moss, algae, and lichen can add significant weight to your roof. Over time, this extra weight can strain the roof structure, potentially leading to sagging or damage.

Preserving Materials:

Many roofing materials, such as asphalt shingles, wood shakes, and tiles, can deteriorate more quickly when covered with organic growth. Algae, for instance, can feed on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles, causing them to break down faster. Cleaning the roof removes these growths, preserving the integrity of the roofing materials.

Preventing Structural Damage:

Moss and lichen can grow between shingles or tiles, causing them to lift and allowing water to penetrate the roof. This can lead to rot, leaks, and structural damage. Algae and dirt can also trap moisture, exacerbating these issues.
