The answer to this is simple- cleaner air! Over the past number of years governments have worked hard to reduce their carbon foot prints and in doing so have made the air we breathe cleaner. The evidence of this can be seen on roofs throughout the country by the increasing moss and algae growth. In the past the pollutants present in the air acted as a killer to these organisms and prevented their growth in many areas. Will my gutters and downspouts become blocked after treatment? No. We remove all or up to 90% of the growths by hand first. Any remaining growths that later die and fall away are so small that they will wash safely through the roof drainage system. In fact, gutter cleaning will become a task you needn't worry about for a long time after! How much does it cost? There is no set price for our roof cleaning service. Every roof we clean differs in some way, the labor involved in moss removal, accessibility, and amount of product needed to name a few. We do though offer a free consultation and pricing with absolutely no obligation or hard selling. What strength pressure washer do you use? We do not use any type of pressure washing equipment when cleaning roofs. A typical medium sized electric pressure washer delivers around 1500-2000 psi, your more powerful gas or diesel washers can range to anything from 2000-10,000 psi for an average sized machine. Our equipment works at a max pressure of 50 psi, that's less than a typical garden hose. How long will it last? Again this differs from building to building. The product we use will continue to clean the roof surface for a period of up to two years, after which contamination will return but at a rate that depends on a number of factors. Surrounding area, weather conditions, type of roof surface etc. A general rule of thumb we would use for a building built in last 20 years would be to take the age of a building, estimate the number of years the moss growth has been an issue and subtract. Example. A 10 yr old house with moss issue for 4 yrs. 10 - 4 =6 plus 2 yrs cleansing period = 8 (estimated time it would take for moss to become an issue again is 8 years.)
