Roof Cleaning

Have a Dirty or Stained Roof?

It is difficult to drive around for more than 5 minutes in our area and not help but notice a handful of stained or dirty roofs. Most homeowners either don’t notice it, don’t think there is a solution to clean it, or think it is expensive to clean it. While we do admit that most of the residential work we do can be handled as a do-it-yourself project for any handy homeowner, cleaning a roof is not something we suggest taking on yourself. Aside from the danger of the possibility of falling off your roof, most residential powerwashers are not equipped with a hot water option, nor do they come equipped with the necessary chemicals to tackle the project efficiently. To set up a free estimate call us at 215-703-8306 or fill out our online form.

Roof Cleaning & Repair during Winter

Most pressure washing contractors do not work during the winter months around the Philadelphia area. It is not because we are afraid of the cold or snow but because the water we would need to use can freeze our lines, especially in the 12 degree weather that the area is facing this week. That does not mean there are not a few tips homeowners should know about cleaning and repairing a roof during the cold season.

If you are reading this article I am assuming that you are a well-advised homeowner in terms of keeping up with the quality of your home. A large part of our business in October, November and December is gutter cleaning and gutter unclogging. You have probably already read the nightmare stories about ice dams forming or gutters freezing over and breaking because of clogs in your gutters.

What you may not know is that it is just as important to have your roof cleared of debris before you unclog your gutters. It does not take a genius to realize that what goes up must come down so if you hire a gutter cleaning company to unclog your gutters before the first frost make sure you have them clean the debris from the roof FIRST.

While your contractor is up on your roof any pressure washing contractor can perform a simple inspection and tell you if you are missing any shingles, if your chimney may leak, or if any gutters are damaged. A contractor should also make you aware if you have any branches from nearby trees that may need to be trimmed back to avoid scraping the roof, dripping sap onto the roof, or a branch breaking and damaging the roof.
