Why Do You Need Roof Pressure Washing?

The roof is an important part of any structure, but it is also one of the most vulnerable parts of the exterior. It is constantly exposed to the sun, wind, rain, and snow. Naturally, constant exposure to these natural elements will affect the appearance and quality of a roof. For example, the sun’s UV rays can break down roof shingle aggregates, which is the protective layer that helps extend the lifespan of a roof. Even if your roof has the best quality materials and construction, it will still be susceptible to wear and tear.

In addition, roofs can have an overgrowth of mold, mildew, moss, algae, and other organic material. Not only do they leave unattractive stains on your roof, but they can also cause shingles and other roofing materials to rot.

All these issues can be avoided with proper roof cleaning and maintenance. Professional roof pressure washing should be done at least twice a year — preferably once during the spring and once during the fall. Pressure washing not only restores the appearance of your roof but it also effectively blasts away the harmful substances that damage the roof materials. Pressure washing is also a critical step before reapplying protective sealant on the roof.

Before and during pressure washing, professionals can get a good look at your roof and identify potential problems. Addressing these structural issues early on can save you a lot of time, money, and effort in the future.

Constant assault from natural elements such as the sun, wind, and rain can leave a roof looking old and worn. Mold and mildew can also accumulate, which can destroy a roof’s protective layer. If you want to keep your roof in perfect working condition, regular cleaning and maintenance are key.
