WHY BUY A NEW ROOF WHEN YOU CAN CLEAN IT!
Don’t be embarrassed by the stains on your roof!
No matter how beautiful your landscaping, no matter how clean your windows, no matter how precise the paint trim or lawn. If you roof is covered in filthy algae stains it will still ruin your roof and curb appeal, if not in your eyes then in the eyes of your family, friends, neighbors and potential buyers. If you watched me when I clean your roof, you will actually see the mildew, mold and algae disappear within minutes if not seconds. It is to some people almost like magic, what it is really doing is killing the mildew, mold and algae right in front of your eyes and protecting your roof from any further damage from the mildew, mold and algae. Once all of the black and brown spots have completely disappeared and the roof is determined clean, we will thoroughly rinse off the entire roof with fresh clean water with OUR water hoses hooked to your water spigots "NOT A PRESSURE WASHER" so that the low percentage solution that we used to clean your roof initially is so diluted that it can't harm your plants later from the early morning dew that will cause a drip and you will have instant results Chemically cleaning your roof is the first step in prolonging the life of your tiles, shingles, DECRA, metal and slate and another benefit to cleaning is lowering your electric bill and bringing back the new roof look by removing all that black mildew and mold that traps heat and prevents heat deflection. PLUS: My process is recommended by all major roofing manufacturers. |

Why should you clean your roof?
Contrary to popular belief, roof cleaning is about more than just having a nice-looking house. It’s also about attending to the overall health of your roof and home. The black streaks that you’re seeing on your roof consist of Gloeocapsa Magma, which is a hardy type of blue-green algae that if left to its own devices will eventually start to compromise the integrity of your shingles.
Usually the process begins when an algae spore lands on and attaches to your roof. It then begins to consume the limestone filler in your shingles’ granules. The limestone acts as a food source for the algae and allows it to grow and eventually cover larger and larger portions of your roof’s surface. So as the algae grows across your roof it is literally eating the shingles! If the growth goes unchecked it will eventually cause loss of roof granules, which are vital to the reflective properties of your roof. When these granules are lost it leads to greater heat build-up which leads to higher energy costs for you, especially on those hot summer days when the AC is blasting! Loss of granules and the further deterioration of your shingles could very well shave years off the life of your roof, and with new roofs running between $5,000 and $15,000 these days for average homes, why wouldn’t you do everything in your power to max out its lifespan? Take my advice to have your roof cleaned as needed and you’ll not only enjoy a nicer-looking home but you’ll be protecting probably your biggest investment: your home! |
We Use Using a special No Pressure cleaning technique approved by shingle manufacturers, non-Pressure Clean Solutions can take years off the appearance of your roof.
I can pretty much guarantee that if you try to clean your roof stains with aggressive scrubbing or agitation, you’re going to lose a lot of shingle granules in the process. With enough force these will pop right off of asphalt shingles, which is why I also do not recommend roof cleaning with a power washer. Granules do more than just add the color to your shingles. They are vital to your roof’s health because they reflect sunlight, thus keeping your attic cooler and your AC bills lower. If you think your attic is warm now just climb up into one that is covered by a roof that is missing a lot of granules or is covered in black algae stains – you’ll probably notice the difference in temperature. In general, the quicker your roof loses granules the quicker it will lose its integrity, and the quicker you’ll need to get a new roof. So hopefully you can see how important this so-called “shingle grit” actually is.
The other reason you shouldn’t be scrubbing or pressure washing your roof stains is that in most cases it’s simply not necessary. I go into this in a lot more detail throughout this site, but the bottom line is that if your contractor is using the correct chemicals then no surface agitation should be required. You simply spray on the chemical with the help of a non-pressure pump, allow several minutes for it to kill the algae, and then rinse gently with a garden hose. The only rare instance where a power washer might be useful is with very thick, green moss, but if all you have are black algae roof stains then you should have no need for scrubbing or power washing. Make the mistake of cleaning your roof with high-pressure or aggressive agitation and you will probably only shorten its lifespan. Use the right roof stain remover without pressure and you will extend your roof’s lifespan.
Roof stain removal doesn’t have to be complicated, but it is so important that you do it the correct way or hire someone who knows how to do it properly. It’s very possible that you’ve had some so-called “expert” try to convince you that chemical roof cleaning is “bad” and will destroy your roof, gutters, and plants but it just isn’t true. I’ve performed so many roof cleanings with chemicals alone that I could practically do it in my sleep, and I’ve never once had a situation where we caused damage to a home. All we’ve ever done is ADD years to a roof’s life, not subtract them. I can’t say the same for someone who relies on pressure or scrubbing, however. Either you can take my advice or toss it aside, but don’t blame me when you decide to hit your shingle stains with a power washer and notice afterward that there are literally piles of shingle granules sitting in your gutter and on the ground.
