Roof cleaning is a necessary part of home maintenance and should always be done by a professional. Shingles and masonry tiles damage easily by incorrect cleaning—pressure washing with the wrong nozzle, too much pressure, and wrong cleaning products will do more harm than good.
Gloeocapsa magma, a blue-green algae that leaves black streaks on you roofing, is your roof's villain; a professional pressure washing vanquishes this foe. The growth of the algae is not only unsightly, but damaging. The tiny critters live on the limestone filler in roof shingles—and if they are left unchecked, they can allow water to penetrate underneath your shingles.
DIY Isn't The Best Choice For Everything
Don't let a do-it-yourself turn into a doing-it-wrong; let a professional roof cleaning contractor take the worry away. One mess up could cause you to replace your entire roof—according to HomeAdvisor, the estimated ranges for a roof repair are between $5,000 to $10,000!
