Roof Cleaning

When driving through a neighborhood with beautiful homes, did you ever notice that many roofs don’t have a nice appearance because of how dirty they look, and one of those roofs may actually be yours! Some roofs have black streaks running through the shingles and on some, the whole roof is black, ruining the look and appeal of the house and the neighborhood. Many people don’t realize that their roof can be cleaned either by themselves or professionally; and of course, we at Soft Wash 360 would prefer that you choose the “professional choice” because cleaning it yourself can cause more damage if you don’t know the proper procedures.

The following are some important reasons your roof should be cleaned:

2. Since the sun is being absorbed instead of reflected, it can affect the efficiency of your heating and cooling system, costing you more money for your utility bills.

3. Roofs won’t last as long as they should because if mold and mildew continue to build up, wood rot can occur causing a trickle-down effect. Wood rot causes moisture that causes mold and eventually leaks into your home and can affect your health and respiratory system, especially those with allergies.

4. Insurance companies can cancel policies because of stained roofs, many times giving very little time for you to get the job done.

5. You want to feel good about your house and be proud of how it looks in your neighborhood and to others.In choosing a qualified roof cleaning professional, there are a few things to know. 

Many states don’t require a license to clean, so you need to know that the company is legitimate and that they use safe and proper chemicals and supplies. Ask questions! One important question to ask is if they are certified, and also be sure to choose a company that guarantees the roof will be fungus-free for three to five years until another cleaning. If the proper cleaning products aren’t used, the fungus can return in a short time, requiring more cleaning which costs you more. To keep your roof clean in between, you should have it sprayed with a protective coating once every year.
