Why Should You Have Your Roof Cleaned?

Have you ever noticed dark streaks on your shingle roof? Those black streaks aren’t dirt! They are actually a living organism called Gloeocapsa Magma. This type of algae actually feeds on your shingle roof and can cause a considerable number of issues other than just being an eyesore to look at. 

So how do we SAFELY get rid of these unwanted guests? Our roof cleaning service uses a process called soft washing. Soft washing is a gentle method of cleaning that uses our proprietary cleaning solutions (instead of high pressure) to safely remove organic growth from the roof. This process actually kills the organic growth on your roof which fixes the problem at the source! 

So if you have these black streaks on your roof, why should you have your roof professionally soft washed? 

1.Preserves the life of your roof

  • Those dark algae streaks are not only an eyesore, but they are actually eating your roof away. The Gloeocapsa Magma algae feeds on the limestone that is present in asphalt shingles. Left untreated, this can cause premature wear on your roof resulting in expensive replacement costs well before its due date.

2. Saves you money 

  • Roof Cleaning not only helps restore the life of your roof but can also reduce cooling costs in your home as well. When your roof is darkened with these algae stains, it allows more sunlight and heat to be absorbed which then forces your cooling system in your house to have to work harder. Having a clean roof ensures that the minimum amount of heat is absorbed by your roof during the hot, summer months that are so common here in the south.

3.Restores Your Home’s Curb Appeal

    • Having a clean roof free from algae streaks and stains will keep your house looking its best. Although this is the most common reason why most people request a roof cleaning, did you know that having a clean roof can dramatically increase your home’s value? A report by the National Association of Realtors found that having the exterior of your property cleaned (such as roof cleaning) can add $10,000-$15,000 worth of value to your home’s property!

What Is Gloeocapsa Magma?

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

Gloeocapsa Magma is probably the most prevalent of several algae species that contribute to discoloration. All species are transported through the air and tend to collect and grow upon roofing structures. Natural pigments produced by these algae may cause a white or light-colored roof to gradually turn dark brown or black. Discoloration may appear as uniform discolorations or streaks. The algae discolorations should not be confused with moss or tree droppings, which typically produce only localized discolorations.”

What Makes Our Roof Cleaning Service Different?

Although there are a number of companies in the northwest Mississippi area that advertise roof cleaning as one of their services, we are one of the few that truly specialize in this particular service. So how are we different from our competitors? Simply put, it comes down to 3 key areas.

 

Professional Methods

Our roof cleaning process follows the ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturer’s Association) guidelines for cleaning shingle roofs. Unlike some companies, we never use pressure to clean the roof. Not only can this cause irreversible damage, but in some cases will void your roof’s warranty.

Instead, we utilize a soft wash cleaning method. Soft washing is a gentle method of cleaning that uses our proprietary cleaning solutions (instead of high pressure) to safely remove organic growth from the roof. This process actually kills the organic growth on your roof which fixes the problem at the source!

Peace of Mind

Roof cleaning is a delicate process that requires not only the right equipment, but also experience. Because of the different industrial-strength cleaning solutions that have to be used to clean the roof, care has to be taken to ensure there’s no damage caused to other aspects of the house or surrounding vegetation.

Because of that, we approach every roof cleaning job with a customized plan to go above and beyond what’s needed to protect your house and property from any potential issues during the cleaning process. 

This may include: 

  • Covering plants to protect from overspray.
  • Collecting runoff from the gutter downspouts.
  • Thoroughly watering all surrounding vegetation and areas of the property that might be affected by overspray.
  • Applying a neutralizing agent to the vegetation which will protect the plants from any potential overspray while also providing additional nutrients to the root system.

Iron-clad Guarantee

Here at Route 51 Pressure Washing, we’re not a company that does a “splash and dash” type of cleaning. We take great pride in our work and will gladly stand behind our services. 

That’s why we provide a 2-year warranty for all of our complete roof cleaning packages, and an extended 5-year warranty for our premium roof cleaning package.

If you notice any dark streaks or stains starting to appear within the warranty period, we’ll come back to take care of it for free, no questions asked.

We’re not here just to earn your business. We stand behind our work so that when it comes to exterior cleaning, we’re your last call!

Roof Cleaning In Coldwater, MS ​

Very pleased with the Roof Cleaning service and communication we received from Route 51 Pressure Washing when they cleaned our roof. We had looked for quite a while to find someone that didn’t use “High pressure” that damages the shingles. Andrew did a great job! Highly recommend them!

Andrew came out to my new location where the house is 17 years old and washed the roof sparkling clean from the black stain. It looks picture perfect now and everyone loves it! He was very careful protecting the lawn and all flowers and shrubs, and especially my pets. Thank you so VERY MUCH! I definitely recommend Route 51 for roof cleaning!
