Should You Clean Your Roof?

Over time, your home’s asphalt shingles will become dirty. This is to be expected, as your roof takes a constant beating from Mother Nature.

While you don’t have to personally clean your roof, it makes sense to consult with a professional who can assist you. That way, you’re able to take advantage of the following benefits:

•    Curb appeal: There’s something about a dirty or dingy roof that drags down the overall curb appeal of your home. Once it’s cleaned, your home will have a fresher look.
•    Prevent damage: If algae, moss, or other debris accumulates on your roof, it can result in damage. Subsequently, you may find yourself replacing the roof sooner than you thought you would.
•    Extended life: You want your roof to last as long as possible, so it’s critical that you take care of it. A clean roof is a roof that has better odds of lasting a long time.

If your roof has seen better days, now’s the time to take action. A good inspection and cleaning by a professional may be all that it needs to look new again. Don’t wait another season to tackle this project.
