Signs Your Roof Needs to be Cleaned

Keeping a roof clean is an important part of home ownership. Lack of roof care can result in thousands of dollars in repairs and even premature replacement of the entire roof. With the right treatment and care your roof can protect you from fungus, bugs, and water while also increasing the appeal of your entire property.

Signs Your Roof Needs to be Cleaned

Being able to identify when your roof might be in danger is a vital and easy skill to have. There are many signs that are easy to spot that all homeowners should be aware of and lookout for:

  • Buildup of Leaves and Dirt

    • While individual leaves on a roof aren’t inherently dangerous, keeping an eye out for the formation of groups of them can be a sign that there is buildup. When leaves are bunched together, moisture is withheld and it becomes a breeding ground for moss and fungus to begin growing on your roof. Dirt also traps leaves and assists in the creation of these problem areas. Be sure to look out for any buildup that doesn’t go away after windy or rainy days

  • Fallen Branches or Objects

    • Branches are a very common occurrence on a roof. Whether big or small they are a massive eye sore to everyone. But they also act as a shelter to dirt, insects, and moss that latch onto anything that blocks sunlight and prevents wind and rain from removing. Keeping branches and twigs on your roof for long periods of time can not only be dangerous for the health of the roof, but also be the home to organisms that are destroying your roof.

  • Moss and Fungus Growth

    • Moss is the primary factor in the damaging of roofs and shingles. It contains moisture and eats away at your shingle until it burrows under and causes expensive leaks into your home. When there are visible areas of moss growth on your roof, call a professional to remove and apply moss killing agents to prevent any regrowth for up to a year. Whether they are bunched together or spread broadly throughout your roof. Dealing with moss as soon as possible is the best way to ensure the safety of your home.
