Roof Cleaning Services — Natural Moss Decay Method
Your roof is one of your home’s biggest assets and one of the most exposed. Over time moss algae lichens and organic debris accumulate. If untreated these growths trap moisture lift roofing materials damage shingles or tiles and shorten the life of your roof. Traditional roof cleaning often involves aggressive rinsing or pressure washing which can harm delicate roofing materials or void warranties.
We offer a gentler more sustainable approach: natural moss decay. Our method kills and treats moss so it loosens its grip decays over time and falls away naturally. No pressure washing no high‐force rinsing just a safe effective process designed to protect your roof’s integrity and restore its appearance.
How Our Natural Moss Decay Process Works
We follow a step by step protocol to ensure your roof is cleaned safely and thoroughly without damaging materials or landscaping:
Inspection & Assessment
We evaluate your roof’s material slope condition existing moss or algae buildup damage risk and surrounding environment such as shade trees and gutters.Protection of Landscaping & Sensitive Areas
Before applying treatment we shield vulnerable plants gardens solar panels and fixtures. Since we do not rinse runoff risk is minimized by using biodegradable roof safe cleaning agents.Treatment Application
We apply a specially formulated moss control solution that kills living moss and inhibits regrowth. The chemicals are chosen to be effective yet gentle on roofing materials.Allowing Natural Decay
After treatment we do not rinse. Instead the moss dies changes color loosens and gradually detaches on its own over time washed off by rain or wind or removed gently later. This reduces risk of damage from high pressure water or scrubbing.Final Check & Optional Maintenance Additions
We follow up after some weeks to inspect the roof and ensure treatment was effective. We may suggest installing zinc or copper strips trimming overhanging trees cleaning gutters or other preventive measures to slow moss regrowth.
