Combating Roof Enemies: How Soft Washing Eliminates Harmful Organisms
A clean roof not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your home, but it also protects the longevity of your roof. At APro Pressure Washing, we specialize in combating those unsightly and damaging roof enemies through our soft washing technique.
Identifying the Foes of Your Roof
Your roof faces a host of adversaries that can threaten its longevity and functionality. Among the most common are:
- Gloeocapsa Magma – This bacterium feeds off the limestone filler in asphalt shingles, resulting in black streaks that mar your roof’s appearance. If left untreated, it can break down your shingles, leading to costly roof failures.
- Moss – Moisture-loving moss can lift shingles, exposing the roof underlayment to damaging elements.
- Mold and Mildew – These not only damage shingles and underlayment but can also become a health hazard.
- Lichen – This hardy organism that grows from algae and fungus can penetrate shingles and degrade roof integrity.
The Power of Soft Washing
Soft washing is a gentle yet effective technique that uses less concentrated water pressure to safeguard shingles, tiles, gutters, vents, flashing, and chimneys from damage. While the name may imply a lack of potency, don’t be fooled. The real power of soft washing comes from the eco-friendly, chemical agents added to the stream of water.
These agents target the harmful organisms that plague your roof, breaking them down and washing them away. The soft wash process not only removes the visible stains caused by these enemies but also eliminates their presence on a cellular level, preventing regrowth and further damage.
Suitable for a Variety of Roofing Structures
Whether you have asphalt, wood, or tile shingles, or a metal roof, our soft washing method is safe and effective. We adjust the chemical solution and water pressure to suit the particular requirements of your roof, ensuring thorough cleaning without causing harm.
Protecting Your Home and Health
While a clean roof certainly improves your home’s appearance, the benefits of soft washing extend much further. By eliminating roof enemies like mold, mildew, lichen, and Gloeocapsa Magma, you are safeguarding your roof from premature aging and potential roof failure. Not to mention, by getting rid of mold and mildew, you’re also enhancing the healthiness of your living environment.
