Improve your homes curb appeal and increase your propertys value

One of the first, and most obvious reasons to keep your roof clean throughout the year is to improve its curb appeal. Whether you’re planning to sell your house, or you simply want to make a good impression on neighbors, keeping your roof clean will go a long way in making your house look great.
If you’re planning on selling your house, getting your roof cleaning can be an inexpensive way to increase the perceived value of your residence. Remember, even if your roof is still in great shape, a dirty roof will scare off potential buyers. Most people looking for a house to buy aren’t roofing experts, so a dirty roof will cause potential buyers to assume that the roof may need to be replaced. Replacing a roof costs a significant amount of money, and buyers will likely subtract this amount from your asking price.
Depending on the value of your house and other factors, getting a buyer for your house might take up to a year. Keeping your roof in tiptop shape throughout the time you’re looking to sell is an excellent way of ensuring your house sells for its full worth.

Remove harmful mould, algae etc.

Having your roof high pressure cleaned will remove harmful mould, moss, algae, lichen and mildew. Removing these bacteria from your roof is important for many reasons. These fungi spread and work their way under roofing tiles and flashings, loosening tiles and increasing the risk that they will be removed during storms etc. in addition, certain types of these bacteria absorb heat and this can cause tiles to crack. Whether your roof is tile or metal, if these fungi are not removed, they can block or restrict water from running freely off your roof. Blocked water courses will increase water build up and increase the possibility of water entering your roof. Once inside, water can cause damage to insulation, wiring and other structures of your home. The presence of mildew can also create odours and can be harmful to both people and pets.

Remove twigs, leaves and other debris wedged in and around tiles and flashings

As your roof is not at eye level it can be hard to see what’s really going on from the ground. In some cases leaves and twigs will easily blow off the roof naturally, in other instances they can get lodged around the tiles causing them to loosen the tiles and increase the risk of them being removed during intense weather. Loose tiles also increase the risk of damaging the sarking underneath, which in turn increases the risk of internal leaks. Whether your roof is tile or metal, if the debris is not removed they can block water courses, stopping water from runninf off your roof and instead entering your roof where it increases the likelihood of leaks and other internal damages. High pressure cleaning uses kinetic energy to dislodge any debris that is stuck on your roof.

Save money on roof maintenance and repairs

When you keep your roof clean, you;re preventing a lot of roof problems that could drastically shorten the lifespan of your roof. The cost of getting your roof clean might not be cheap, but compared to replacing your roof, it’s very reasonable.
