What makes a roof dirty?
The black stains we often see on our roof is algae build up. algae thrives in moist, shaded areas of the roof. In some cases only certain areas of a roof appear black, this may be caused by some areas being more shaded than others.
Lichen is formed when algae and fungus are in close physical contact with one another. they grow in water, air, nutrients, light and on surfaces such as roof tiles and sheets. Lichen holds moisture in place against surfaces, which speeds up normal wear and tear.
Lichen is hard to remove and if not done completely can return very quickly. we use a cleaning solution to aid in the removal and regrowth of lichen. When lichen, moss, algae, mould and mildew are present on the roof they can penetrate the surface causing damage to the surface.
The importance of keeping your roof clean
Removal of algae, moss & lichens from your roof can truly bring your home to life and enhance it’s appearance, all while protecting your valuable investment.
By having your roof cleaned it can remove build up of harmful algae, moss & lichens which overtime penetrate the roof surface and cause long term damage
Whether you have a standard home, unit, townhouse or shed, commercial, industrial or body corporate building we have the expert knowledge and equipment to offer you an expert clean
Roof Screw Replacement
Once your roof is cleaned we can provide recommendations regarding roof screw replacement. In some cases only sections of the roof screws will need to be replaced.
Living in a coastal area, due to the salt air and humidity roof screws can become rusty. Once roof screws become rusty they not only affect the appearance of your roof but may impact the integrity and strength of the roof.
