Roof Cleaning

Why Is Your Property’s Exterior Maintenance So Important?

*90% off all discoloration on your property is growing Algae.

So, why do we want to mitigate algae?

FIRST: If left untreated, algae will progress to moss, and then lichen. Each progression grows deeper into the surface, deteriorating it, and becoming more difficult and costly to remove.
FLAT SURFACES: The thicker the growth, the more slippery it becomes. Let’s keep everybody on their feet, safe and healthy. This is especially important for those over 65. Slips and falls are the #1 cause of injury deaths.
SIDING & WALLS: Invasive growth can begin to deteriorate the surface and even those below the surface.
ROOFS: Yes, those black streaks are algae. If left untreated, the roots will also deteriorate your shingles. This lessens the overall lifespan of the roof and can affect your homeowner’s and business owner’s insurance if they come out to take pictures after a policy has been issued. This is becoming standard practice more and more every year.
WOOD: All wood naturally breaks down over time. If we add something growing with a root system, it can easily lessen it’s life span by 50% or more.
