Should you call a roofing contractor or Westchester Power Washing?
Most roof contractors do not want you to know that your dirty roof shingles are dirty and need to be cleaned, not replaced. If you see black streaks on your roof, mold, mildew, lichens, or moss, call Westchester Power Washing at 914-490-8138.
More than likely, your dirty roof needs to be soft-washed. Soft washing removes black streaks, mold, mildew, lichens, moss, and of course, dirt from your roof.
Homeowners think a dirty roof needs to be replaced. If you call a roofing contractor, they will likely tell you to replace your roof. Why? Roof contractors make money replacing roofs. Furthermore, roof replacement can cost as much as ten times the price of having your roof cleaned. If your roof is less than 25 years old, you may just need to have your roof professionally shampooed and cleaned.
Black streaks are caused by roof algae. The technical term for roof algae that cause the black streaks on your roof is Gloeocapsa Magma. Algae feed on the crushed limestone used in asphalt shingles. As rain washes down your roof, it spreads algae down your roof causing the black streaks you see. Black streaks cause shingles to fail prematurely by not preventing the shingles from reflecting heat properly.
Research has shown 50% of dirty roofs in New York are replaced because of black streaks not because they are damaged.
