After many years of the non-professionals cleaning roofs the improper ways that only damage the roofs, we have mastered the proper techniques to get it clean, keep it clean, and expand the life of your roof. With these new techniques, the roof cleaning industry is heading into a new era, and is becoming more popular day by day.

Why you should clean your roof shingles and why they get dirty!
The why part of the above question is pretty simple. Most people want their property’s roof cleaned for one simple reason. Beauty. Everyone wants a beautiful property. A property that will impress your family and friends when they arrive at your hard earned dwelling. But there are more reasons than just to beautify your property to have your roof cleaned. Having a clean roof also increases the efficiency of your property. Lowering your air conditioning bill is always a high priority in the Houston area. Having your roof shingles full of mold, mildew, and algae will absorb heat during the sunny days. Shingles are designed to reflect heat from the sun, but a moldy roof will absorb it. Why do roofs get so dirty? Let’s face it, the southern states are a hot nasty cesspool of fungus growing cities. The heat, humidity, and wet condition of Houston and other southern cities allow for the perfect conditions for mold, mildew, lichen, algae, and other fungi to grow on roofs, concrete, and just about everything outdoors if not protected and treated. This mold care be harmful to your health in many ways.Shingle Roofs – Why Shingle Cleaning Is Necessary
Most residential roofs are shingle roofs. Shingles these days contain limestone fillers to help add weight. These limestone fillers are food for algae, mold, and moss, so the battle to kill these fungi is a must. When the algae, mold, and moss feed on these limestone fillers, it decreases the lifespan of your shingles. With this information, you can see how keeping your roof clean increases the life of your roof. And of course you wouldn’t want this mold, mildew, and moss growing on the inside of your house, so why let it build up and grow on the outside? This is why shingle cleaning is a must.

Our Roof Clean Methods
We take pride in that our methods and operations of cleaning roofs are supported by ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufactures Association), and shingle manufactures like Owens Corning, GAF, and many others. The “Green” chemicals we use are plant and pet friendly and remove the growing fungus from the roots to insure that future fungus growth does not occur for years to come.After Care For Your Roof Wash
Once your roof cleaning has been performed, there are tips and tricks to keep it this way for years to come. Most roofs will need another cleaning to stay on top of the fungus growth in about 3 to 4 years after the initial cleaning. During this 4 to 5 year period, it is recommended to have us come out and spray your roof with a protective coating each year. The protective coating we apply will help kill off any existing fungus growth, and in many cases will extend or even cancel out the need of another cleaning if kept up on an annual basis.
