Why is it so important to have your roof cleaned?
Roof cleaning is about more than just having a clean LOOKING roof. It is also about attending to the overall health of your roof and home. Roof mold, lichen and algae can be dangerous as they stealthily creep and grow underneath your shingles and act like a sponge soaking up water that can lead to leaks, shingle damage and costly repairs.
The black streaks that you see on your roof are a result of a certain type of blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. If not treated in a timely manner, this algae will eventually begin to compromise the integrity of your shingles and lead to unexpected and costly roof repairs.
The process typically begins as the algae spores land and attach to your roof from over hanging trees, birds, and or wind. The algae consumes the limestone filler found in your shingle granules. The limestone filler acts as a food source for the algae allowing the algae to grow and eventually cover larger and larger sections of your roof.
As the algae spreads it is literally eating your shingles! If this is allowed to continue untreated, the algae will cause a loss of roof granules which are vital to the reflective properties of your roof. The loss of these granules leads to greater heat build up and roof leaks. This guarantees higher energy costs to and hefty repair bills for you.
