When was the last time you gave your roof a little TLC?

If you are like most homeowners (Who aren’t professional roofing contractors) the only time you think about your roof is when there is a major storm, or if there is a leak of some kind.

Has Your Roof Been Inspected in the Last Year?

If you think about it, does your roof ever have a good day? It is constantly up there taking whatever Mother Nature has to dish out. With changes in the seasons (Which turn on a dime around here lately) your roof is exposed to rain, strong winds, snow, ice, UV rays and heat from the sun.

On top of that, needles from surrounding evergreen trees clog our gutters and compound the damage being created by growing algae and moss.

Because your roof is exposed to all of these issues it is not uncommon for your roof to get weak in the leak sensitive areas at joints in the roof. This is why the National Roofing contractors Association recommends that your roof be inspected at least once per year. It is recommended that your roof be inspected either before, or directly after the stormy winter season. This will assure that your roof is prepared for the next winter season. This allows any leak sensitive areas that are showing wear can be fixed before they start allowing the water in.

Is there a Fungus Among Us?

I don’t know what it is, but moss and algae are getting out of control here in the Northwest. It is killing our grass, growing on our sidewalks and walkways, and ruining our roofs.

When we let Moss (The green fluffy stuff) and Algae (The black ugly stains) grow on our roof, it creates problems.

Not only does it affect the appearance of the outside of our home, but Moss and Algae also impair the performance of your roof as well.

The way that moss and algae affect the performance of your roof is simple. Moss and Algae are plants. Plants have roots. And when they dig into your roof, nothing good can come from it.

Call for Our Non Abrasive, Non Toxic Cleaning and Preservation

Most roof cleaners want to blast your roof with high water pressure. This peels layers of weather fighting roofing away. Cleaning your roof this way will shorten the life of your roof, and even cause leaks!

On top of that, most roof “Cleaners” will use toxic, and corrosive chemicals on your roof that temporarily kill fungus, but are very harmful to your roof and the environment. The roofers actually come up with their own “blends” of materials. This practice leaves the material determination up to the roofer, and the mixing up to the man on the job which can leave a lot of room for interpretation. Who knows what you are actually getting on your roof!

Our exclusive process of high water volume/low pressure uses non abrasive cleaning methods that protect your roof, not damage it. Our concentrated preservation spray, which includes a bio degradable anti-fungal preservative, will kill existing moss and algae and prevent further growth for up to 5 years.
