Having Your Roof Cleaned Actually Makes Sense
According to Dr. Victor H Morgenroth, who is a semi-retired adjunct professor at UM; the " dirt " on roofs could actually be causing illness. Here is an excerpt from an article that was written by Dr. Morgenroth.
Having your roof cleaned actually makes sense.
It isn't just aesthetics. While people like to say that dirty roofs lower a property's value and may make it hard to sell, the "dirt" on a roof actually shortens its life span and can even present a health hazard. Furthermore, the "dark stains" on a roof act as a sponge to absorb the sun's heat, which causes a rise in the temperature inside a home or building, creating higher air conditioning bills.
The dirt isn't just dust – It's alive. Some of the black or very dark roof stains are caused by a resilient type of algae, Gloeocapsa magma (a type of blue-green algae commonly found in climates with warm, humid summers). The algae grow in standing water, as well as in our lakes and ponds. The algae spores are carried to our roofs from the water sources by the wind and birds, and then from roof to roof where it grows and feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles and the real dirt on tile roofs maybe in some cases the tiles themselves. Worse still, as the algae grow, they retain water and foster the growth of other roof inhabitants.
The black stains are also very likely to harbor a number of molds or fungi. Unlike algae the fungi on our roofs lacks chlorophyll. They are unable to manufacture food from raw materials. So, it must get nutrition from some form of organic matter. To thrive, these heterotrophs, who used to be called saprophytes, also require a warm, humid environment.
Fungi normally begin their life cycle as an airborne spore that settles on roofs, especially the asphalt-shingle ones. The spores on the northern exposure of the roof stand a better chance of survival because that portion of the roof is the last part to dry after a rain or morning dew. This raises the humidity on the surface of the shingle, thus creating a perfect feeding and breeding ground.
The tar used in roofing is fossilized, dead organic matter -- and an important food source for fungi. Asphalt, at the granule base, is normally consumed first. Once these granules dislodge, accelerated deterioration will occur. Ceramic granules represent the outer hard shell that protects against hail and other falling debris. Ceramic granules protect against damaging UV radiation and insulate the roof against extreme heat. So you can understand that their dislodgement by the growing fungal colonies can be detrimental to our roofs' longevity. Surprisingly, the blue-green algae are also food for the fungi.
While not all mold (fungi) and algae pose a health danger, some are harmful, especially for us older folks, younger children and people who suffer from asthma and respiratory problems. Their spores, which are on your roof, can get inside your home because they end up on the driveway and walkways from rain, and are easily tracked inside. They can even be drawn into our air conditioning systems and eventually populate our ducts.
Different mold species can have varying health effects, but it is important to remember that any excessive mold growth needs to be taken care of, regardless of the species. Any excessive mold growth can lead to increased allergies, toxicity, and house/building structural problems.

SOFT WASH VS PRESSURE WASH
We have had many clients from Kingwood TX, Humble TX and parts of Houston TX call recently asking the difference between our SOFT WASH cleaning method for ROOF CLEANING and EXTERIOR WALLS of residential homes and companies that use a pressure washer and high pressure to clean a home or business.
I thought I'd take a few moments to explain what a SOFT WASH cleaning is.
When Clean and Green Solutions of Kingwood TX, cleans your home or roof, we never use HIGH PRESSURE. Our environmentally safe cleaning products are applied gently to the surface of your roof and exterior walls of your home and then rinsed lightly using plain water. The cleaning solutions that we use are actually what does the cleaning. The equipment that we use, in some cases a pressure washer, is simply the vehicle that we use to apply the cleaning solutions in a gentle and consitent manner.
Once we have applied our SOFT WASH cleaning solutions to your roof and home, allowed them to dwell so that they kill and release all contaminants, pollutants, algae, mold and mildew, your roof and home is then returned to it's like new origional condition. The threat of damage to your home by high pressure is also eliminated as the amount of pressure we use is actually less than what comes out of your garden hose with a typical garden hose end sprayer.
Performing a SOFT WASH cleaning takes years of experience and professional knowledge of the not only the surface being cleaned, but also the stain on the surface. Anybody can hook up a pressure washer and start blasting away trying to remove stains. But without the proper equipment, cleaning solutions, and expertise, your home can and will suffer irrepairable damage.
Don't trust your biggest asset to a non proffesional. Contact Clean and Green Solutions, Kingwood TX, and we'll make an appointment at your convenience and give you a complete no obligation consultation and estimate to have your HOME and ROOF completely cleaned using our SOFT WASH "No Pressure" cleaning method.

Kingwood, TX Soft Wash Roof and Exterior Cleaning Services
If you live in Kingwood, Tx, Humble, TX, Atascocita, and surrounding areas you will notice our roofs will have a lot of black stains on them.

Algae discolorations are tough to remove from roofing surfaces and should be performed only by a professional roof and exterior cleaning service company. Having the proper cleaning solutions and equipment for the job is THE most important thing in removing these stains.
