Roof Washing
Roof washing impacts your entire house, from the roof to the foundation. Growth on your roof can trap moisture, resulting in roof rot. It also releases spores and particles, contaminating the air throughout your home. Additionally, it creates a pleasant environment for pests to live in and make their way into your home – great for them, horrible for you. We haven’t even mentioned the impact on your bank account!
Growth on your roof also makes your home less efficient, resulting in a higher utility bill. And, if your roof is left unaddressed for an extended period of time, it can void its warranty, so you pay out-of-pocket for repairs!
But it’s not all doom and gloom.
Horizon Home Detailing knows rooftops, how to remove unwanted growth like mold, mildew, moss, and algae, and how to prevent it. It starts with knowing your roof’s surface type to identify the exact pressure and cleaning solutions it needs without damaging it. Regardless of the details, which is where the difference is, we’ll restore your roof to like-new, preventing damage, air quality issues, pest infestation, and unplanned expenses!
Safe Chemicals For Roof Washing
It’s important to ensure that the correct cleaning solution is used during roof washing in order to actually clean your roof and eliminate dangerous germs. There’s nothing worse than spending your hard-earned money for your roof to look clean, sure, but… it’s not actually clean.
That’s why we here at Horizon Home Detailing use the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association’s recommended cleaning solution: Sodium Hypochlorite (aka, liquid chlorine). This is mixed with a professional roof cleaning surfactant that keeps the liquid chlorine from running off the roof, ensuring that it efficiently removes the organic growth.
Extend The Lifespan Of Your Roof
Pressure washing can shorten the life of your roof, due to how the highly pressurized water can cause tiles to shift. It can strip granules from the surface, making your roof more likely to absorb water. Not only does this cause the shingles themselves to soften and become crumbly, it also increases the risk of water damage in your home.
Plus, that high pressure water can loosen your shingles, making it more likely for your roof to sustain damage during a storm. All of this shortens the lifespan of your roof.
Soft washing, on the other hand, doesn’t have that intense pressure that could do serious damage to your roof. Since it’s low pressure, you don’t have to worry about your shingles being loosened or shifting, the granules being stripped, or any of the associated problems with such damage. Rather, you get to enjoy a deep clean that actually helps your roof last longer.
Don’t Put Off Your Roof Washing
It’s easy for home and business owners to drag their feet about scheduling a roof washing service. Sure, your roof has seen better days and definitely looks like it needs a good clean, but… what’s the harm in waiting another few months to have it washed?
Unfortunately, not having your roof cleaned as needed doesn’t just bring down the curb appeal of your property. Dirty roofs can also cause damage and shorten your roof’s lifespan.
Bird droppings are highly acidic, causing damage to roof shingles and tiles if left untreated. Algae can hollow out asphalt shingles, causing them to crack and be more easily blown away. Organic debris holds moisture to your roof, causing shingles to soften and become crumbly. Engine exhaust can settle on your roof, drying out your roof and making it easier for water to seep through your roofing structure.
And that’s not all! So you see, as easy as it can be to put off having your roof cleaned, this should be included as part of your routine property maintenance checklist.
