Prevention treatments as routine maintenance is by far the best way to prevent roof damage but life gets busy and often times a roof will be too far gone for a prevention treatment and will require a more serious intervention, that's where a soft-wash comes into play
Soft-washing is a diluted mixture of sodium-hypochlorite, surfactant and water, in other words, bleach, soap and water. depending on how bad the moss growth is we can use a range of 2-5% sodium-hypochlorite to get your roof cleaned.
The beautiful thing about roof soft-washing is it can kill off active moss growth, prevent it from coming back, and remove those ugly black streaks from your roof all in one shot.
Home Owners Insurance
The presence of roof moss on your home can cause your home owners insurance to get dropped, and cause major issues between buyers, sellers, and inspectors when it's time to sell your home.
Shingle Damage
Moss growth on your roof can, and most often time will grow underneath the bottom edge of each shingle and in-between each shingle, if given enough time, as the moss grows it will lift up your shingles allowing water to roll back underneath the shingles potentially causing leaks and causing your shingles to permanently be lifted up, increasing the speed in which your roof deteriorates.
