Roof Cleaning

Save Your Roof * Don't Replace It!

Extend Its Life Today! 

Roofs in Texas and across the country are under serious stress from the Mold, Algae and Fungus that's invading them

Eliminate the damaging and unsightly black streaks, green algae & fungus that are growing. The spores grow from the heat, humidity and nutrients contained in dirt and the limestone in the shingles. 

Using a safe "Soft Wash" low pressure cleaning technique recommended by NRMA, the Asphalt Roofing Manufactures Association, we apply a chemical mixture solution. Then we let the solution dwell for a short time and rinse leaving a clean great looking roof.

 Left unchecked and dirty, your roof could lose 10 years of its life not to mention curb appeal & resale value. Also, as it gets worse, the roof will holds more moisture and could affect not only the shingles but the wood below the shingles as well!

Below is a Reprinted technical bulletin 217-RR-89 from ARMA, the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association

For many years, roof discoloration caused by algae has been observed throughout the United States and Canada.  This is commonly referred to as "fungus growth".  The discoloration usually has a brown to black appearance, and may be mistaken for soot, dirt, moss, or tree droppings.

The primary species of algae being observed is Gloeocapsa Magma.  This type of algae is contained in and transported through the air, and tends to collect and grow upon roofing structures.  Natural pigments produced by this algae may cause a white or light colored roof to gradually turn dark brown or black.  The algae discolorations should not be confused with moss or tree droppings, which typically produce only localized discolorations.

This type of roof discoloration has been most widespread in the Gulf States and along the Northwest and Eastern Seaboards.  It is not, however, confined to only these regions.  Algae growth occurs to varying degrees in all regions of the country, especially those subjected to warm, humid conditions.  It should be noted that almost all types of roofing systems are susceptible to algae discoloration.  It is, or course, most readily visible upon white or pastel roofs, while it is not so visible upon darker shades of roofing.

This roof algae can be killed and removed to restore your roofs appearance. But the right cleaners and low pressure is a must, so that damage is not done to the roof.

Why not have the cleanest roof on the block !
