Clean roofs with no moss and no lichen in Newton

Clean roofs with no moss and no lichen in Newton

Oct 19, 2022

Have you ever heard about gloeocapsa magma and what it does? This bacteria spreads all over your roof and creates black streaks and stains, feeds off the limestone granules on your shingles and makes shingles to decay. If the bacteria is not treated, it holds moisture and causes costly repairs, granule loss and rotting. Other dangerous bacteria that grows on your roof is:

Moss
Lichen
Mold
Mildew
Algae

We had Manny O. from Newton MA, who needed roof treatment because he didn’t have a big ladder and he needed a professional company as well. After the quote was provided electronically, we scheduled the week after and showed up 9am in the morning. Beside all moss that we had to scrub, on the northern side of the house we had to apply significant amount of solution to remove all black streaks running from top to bottom. Due to the floor plan of the house, we spent a lot of time moving around our equipment, but around 3pm we were done. Next step was soft washing upper and lower decks and cleaning windows on the first floor only. Well, 7400sq feet house is almost considered a mention, and gladly we were able to finish all the services before dark.
