Roof Cleaning to Make an Old Roof Look New

A roof is one of the most important and valuable aspects of your home and you need to clean and maintain it properly to keep up your house’s curb appeal. Neglecting roof maintenance reduces its life expectancy, and could potentially cost you lot of money to set it right again.

Roof cleaning

Debris from trees covers your roof, causing moisture to settle on your shingles and develop roof algae and stains. Debris sometimes blocks the gutter and allows water to flow onto your roof causing heavy damage. You need to clean your gutters regularly.

Roof cleaning methods

There is power washing and washing with chemical solutions containing chlorine bleach. These methods can clean your roof perfectly, but long lasting results are not guaranteed and will generally have to be repeated every 12-18 months.
Chlorine based cleaners ensure faster cleaning process and minimal rinsing when compared to other methods. Chlorine is a toxic chemical that can affect people and plants surrounding it. Proper care should be taken to protect employees and the surrounding property.
Pressure cleaning is mostly used to clean concrete and metal. The advantage of this type of cleaning is that it does not require chemicals and is environmentally friendly. It is very time consuming and repeated pressure cleaning can wear on a roof.
