Roof Cleaning Essential Protection For Your Roof
One of the most pleasant things about living here in Wilmington, NC is the weather. Save for a few cold snaps per year, we enjoy very moderate weather. This allows us to enjoy outdoor activities all year long. Unfortunately, the moderate, humid climate that we enjoy allows mold, mildew, and bacteria to actively grow most of the year also. One particular strain of bacteria, Gloeocapsa Magma, spells bad news for your roof. Which is why professional roof cleaning service isn’t just a maintenance measure, it’s essential protection for your roof. For over a decade the roof cleaning technicians at Pro Pressure Washing have been expertly cleaning roofs all over the Greater Wilmington, NC area providing long-term protection for homeowners. But why does your roof need protecting from a bacteria?
Black Streaks – A Cry For Help From Your Roof
Driving around any neighborhood in Wilmington will reveal many homes that have black streaks running from the spine of the roof towards the drip edge. These streaks are the evidence that Gloeocapsa Magma is present on the roof. This particularly voracious bacteria thrives on moisture and the limestone filler that is present in modern day shingles, making your roof prime real estate. Over time, as the bacteria continue to eat and replicate on your roof, your shingles won’t be able to repel water the way that it used to as small holes and fissures open up, allowing water to penetrate your roof. This can lead to costly repairs and even an expensive roof replacement. Also, as the black streaks stretch out covering more of the surface of your roof you’ll notice that your energy bills steadily increase. Why? Because the black coloration of the bacteria actually absorbs heat from the sun, making your attic hotter, causing your air conditioning system to have to work harder and harder to keep your home cool. What all of this means is that it is essential to call the roof cleaning experts at Pro Pressure Washing the moment you start to see discoloration or black patches appearing on your roof. Does so will help protect your roof and your wallet!
