Chances are you rarely if ever give a thought to how clean your roof is. If you do think about it, you likely make the reasonable assumption that your roof is going to be dirty anyway. But there’s a serious risk to your roof that you may not notice if it isn’t getting cleaned on a seasonal basis.

​

If you take a step outside and look at the roof of each house in your neighborhood, chances are you’ll notice black streaks on at least some of the roofs, maybe even your own. These black streaks are actually algae. Not only does it make your roof look dirty, but it has also been proven to deteriorate your shingles, decreasing the life of your roof. This infestation usually starts on the north side of the house and the spores eventually across the rest of the roof. Rain then goes to work spreading the algae down the roof and into the gutters, giving the appearance of black streaks as they spread. A residential roof cleaning by Elkharts Best Home Services removes this infestation at the source, washing away the spores along with the algae and mold spreading them.
