Many homeowners opt for roof mold removal primarily for aesthetic reasons, such as eliminating roof algae and unsightly black streaks. However, roof cleaning also improves energy efficiency by reducing heat buildup in the attic. The most significant benefit is the cost savings on roof replacement. Roof cleaning can save you thousands of dollars while preventing old shingles from ending up in landfills, making it an eco-friendly choice.
In the past, staining on asphalt shingles wasn’t a common issue. However, this has become a significant problem in recent decades due to changes in shingle materials. Leading manufacturers began adding fiberglass and limestone to shingles to enhance their weight and lifespan. Unfortunately, the limestone fosters the growth of algae, particularly Gloeocapsa Magma, which causes dark streaks on the roof. These streaks cause damage to the shingles, decreasing their lifespan and causing premature failure. This means that many roof replacements aren’t necessary since homeowners aren’t aware the fact that pressure washing your roof could help solve the issue. In many instances the case, a simple roof cleaning is all that’s required and makes premature roof replacements unavoidable, particularly in the Northeast.
