Having a clean roof also increases the efficiency of your property. Lowering your air conditioning bill is always a high priority in the Woodlands area. Having your roof shingles full of mold, mildew, and algae will absorb heat during sunny days. Shingles are designed to reflect heat from the sun, not absorb it.
Why do roofs get so dirty? Let’s face it; the southern states are a hot nasty cesspool of fungus-growing cities. The heat, humidity, and wet condition of The Woodlands and other southern cities allow for the perfect conditions for mold, mildew, lichen, algae, and other fungi to grow on roofs and concrete. While just about everything outdoors is not protected and treated. Most residential roofs are shingle roofs. Shingles these days contain limestone fillers to help add weight.
These limestone fillers are food for algae, mold, and moss. When the algae, mold, and moss feed on these limestone fillers, it decreases the lifespan of your shingles. With this information, you can see how keeping your clean roof increases the life of your roof.
And, of course, you wouldn’t want this mold, mildew, and moss growing inside your house, so why let it build up and grow on the outside?

After your roof has been cleaned, there are tips and tricks to keep it this way for years to come. Most roofs will need another cleaning to stay on top of the fungus growth in about 3 to 4 years after the initial cleaning. During this 3 to 4-year period, it is recommended to have us come out and spray your roof with a protective coating of spray and forget each year.
The spray and forget coating will help kill off any existing fungus growth, and in many cases will extend the need for another cleaning as recommended for another year or two further.We at Woodlands Power Washing appreciate you visiting our website, and if you feel that we missed anything, please feel free to e-mail us.
