ROOF CLEANING SERVICES ARE NOT THE SAME.

Roof Cleaning Services are Not the Same.

Roof algae, mold, moss, and lichen can decrease a roof's life. Also, outdated roof cleaning methods can decrease the lifespan of roof shingles.  ​Unfortunately, most property owners call concerning their roof algae, mold, moss, and lichen problems long after the infestation has heavily infested most of their roof. At this stage of growth, if the roof infestation is removed or cleaned incorrectly, the process can rapidly decrease the remaining life of the roof shingles.
Roof pressure washing services use terms such as "gentle as rain," "shingle safe," "approved for roof shingles," "soft washing," and "low-pressure" to describe their roof cleaning methods. These roof cleaning methods merely consist of lowering and raising pressure to wash or remove visible stains from the roof. The rooted growth of algae, mold, moss, and lichen is between the roof shingle granules. Removing the visible stains with pressure can rip or pull up the rooted algae, mold, moss, lichen, and shingle granules. Low-pressure washing has its place; however, it is not on a roof.
