5 Reasons Your Roof Needs Cleaning ASAP

Those black streaks on your roof aren't just dirt—they are a type of algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. And they are eating your roof.

1. Extend Roof Lifespan

Algae feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. Over time, this makes the shingles brittle and prone to cracking. A regular soft wash can extend your roof's life by years, saving you thousands on premature replacement.

2. Lower Energy Bills

A black, algae-covered roof absorbs more heat from the Florida sun. A clean, lighter-colored roof reflects that heat. Cleaning your roof can actually lower your AC costs during the summer.

3. Boost Curb Appeal

Nothing kills curb appeal faster than a dirty roof. Whether you aren selling your home or just want to be the pride of the neighborhood, a roof wash is the most cost-effective way to make your house look new again.

4. Healthier Home Environment

Mold and algae on the roof can eventually migrate into your attic and air conditioning system (if ducts are in the attic). Keeping the exterior clean helps protect initial air quality.

5. Insurance Compliance

believe it or not, some insurance companies in Florida are cancelling policies for homes with dirty roofs. They view it as a sign of neglect. Don't take the risk!
