Did you know that neglecting to wash your roof could lead to algae, lichen, or moss growing?
Expert Roof Washing
You might think, what harm could there be in allowing algae, lichen, or moss to grow? Well, there are severe consequences to allowing this issue to go unchecked. Algae growth on your roof causes your roof to turn black. Worse, the moisture captured by shingles allows the algae to grow. When algae spread, it prevents the shingles from being able to reflect UV rays, leading to the shingles rotting.
Lichen and roof moss function nearly the same. They both are plants that grow roots deep in the materials of the roofing, causing the roof to lose its ability to protect the house over time. As the plants continue to grow, they begin to lift the roof slightly, allowing for the wood to be exposed to moisture. When the wood is exposed to moisture for prolonged periods, leaks are created and wood rots.
