Is it Necessary to Clean My Roof?

Oct 20, 2022

Picture of a worker clean the roofing of a houseIf you’re new to owning a home, you may be just starting to figure out what kind of regular maintenance it requires. There’s cleaning the gutters, wiping down the windows, and landscaping… but what about your roof? You may have noticed some stains or plant growth on your roof and are wondering if you can leave it alone or if something needs to be done about it. Read on to learn about cleaning your roof.

Cleaning Your Roof

When done right, cleaning your roof can extend its useful life, so it is beneficial. Staining on roofs is often caused by algae growth, and if your roof is getting old, you may also notice some moss. A lot of homeowners turn to pressure washing, but this can loosen shingles or otherwise damage your roof. The best way to address these issues is with a chemical cleaner, but while this may remove surface growth, it won’t address deeper problems like water damage. You’ll want to have a local roofing company look at your roof to make sure everything is structurally sound before you go up a ladder with a hose.

What Does Black Streaking & Moss Growth on Your Roof Mean?

If you’ve noticed unsightly black streaking or rampant moss growth on your asphalt shingle roof, there’s a possibility your roof has experienced water damage and it’s time to replace it. And if that’s the case, you’ll want a competent roofer on your side. Residents of Muncie and surrounding areas in East Central Indiana can turn to Rodeffer Roofing, a family-owned and -operated roofing company that has been providing homeowners with high-quality, reliable roofing systems for the past decade.
