    one stop for roof cleaning: Holcot Roof Cleaners!

    before and after moss cleaning

    Holcot Cleaners takes on any roof cleaning job in Holcot and the neighbouring areas. We are a reputable roof cleaning company and the go-to company for many commercial and residential clients for roof cleaning. The most significant benefit of roof cleaning is improving the property's appearance. A dirty roof will make a house look unappealing, dull, and old. Professional roof cleaners can eliminate algae, mould, lichen, and moss from your roof--it's a crucial step to expanding your roof's durability. It's typical for the north and west side of a roof not to get much sun and heat. as a result, soot, biomass, and dirt will build up in the shady areas. Therefore, your building will absorb less heat and you will need to use the heater frequently.

    Roof cleaning reduces the risk of water infiltration, maintains the gutters and pipes in good condition and keeps the roof in top shape. Please continue to read for more details.

    Holcot Roof Cleaners remove mould, mildew, algae, etc.

    Never underestimate the long-term damage that moss, mildew, debris, stains, leaves, and mould can cause to your roof. Weather and air pollutants also alter your roof's and house's structure. Algae is damaging because it changes the tiles' and shingles' efficiency. Black algae and lichen can decrease your home's energy efficiency as the roof becomes less able to absorb heat. When your roof can no longer perform as it should, your HVAC system will struggle to warm and keep the house hot. However, it will start running continuously, so your energy bill will increase significantly. 

    Make yourself a routine and check out the roof's appearance from time to time. 

    It extends the lifespan of the roof

    A clean roof is essential for the shingles and roof materials' condition. Moss and algae can cause substantial damage to the roof tiles materials. The asphalt shingles curl wet because of the moss; the risk of them falling in inclement weather increases. All in all, a dirty roof can affect your health and safety too. Having a clean roof shows that you care deeply for your family's health and safety.

    It improves the curb appeal

    Even if you don't plan to sell soon, why not have a lovely-looking house at all times? A roof clean can revive your house's appearance. Be a wise homeowner and hire professionals for roof cleaning services. It's the surest way to make your home stand out in the neighbourhood and even sell high—if that's part of your plans!

    It's necessary when you have trees around the house

    Leaves, falling branches, bird droppings, and debris make a roof look unsightly and alter its structure. Roof cleaning will help the roof and house look its best. If your home has trees nearby, you should never postpone roof cleaning. No matter what you think, roof repair and replacement are much more expensive than roof cleaning services.

    How Will Your Roof Look Like after roof cleaning?

    Cleaning the roof positively affects the roof and your house's looks. Rest assured that Roof Cleaning Holcot will leave your roof cleaner than ever, as they will remove all moss and lichens from the roof. 

    Needless to say, the most notable benefit of professional roof cleaning is purely aesthetic. Keeping your house in top shape is a strenuous job; some of these chores should be left to professionals. It's one thing to wash the windows, wash the driveway with the jet washer or mow the lawn. Cleaning the roof is something that many homeowners forget and, more importantly, lack the skills and equipment.

    Debris, moss, dirt, and lichen can decrease a house's ability to absorb heat. When the roof is dirty, it gets dampened, and dampness is an essential factor in reducing a house's energy efficiency. As a result, the HVAC system will run for a longer time to warm up the home. Stop wondering why your energy bills have increased so much and take a look at your roof. If it's dirty, it's probably why you pay so much for the heat!

    Is roof cleaning something that you should do yourself?

    When it comes to maintenance of the house's exterior, roof cleaning is something never to skip. Some people employ jet and high-pressure washing, but the methods can permanently damage the roof. All roofs need cleaning, regardless of their materials (asphalt shingles, metal, etc.). Your roof will last as expected if you don't skip annual roof cleaning, gutter cleaning, replacing the missing tiles, etc.

    We know that roof cleaning isn't the most difficult, unlike other house maintenance jobs. That doesn't mean that you should attempt it on your own. It would help if you still had the skills, knowledge, tools, and equipment to clean your roof safely and efficiently. Holcot Cleaners has what it takes for excellent roof cleaning results. We're the go-to company for such services in the Holcot area. Our rates are competitive too.

    The roof cleaning process at Holcot Roof Cleaners

    A professionally cleaned roof looks fantastic and you won't have to maintain it very often. It's possible to clean the roof yourself, but you will not obtain the same results as a professional company. When professionals clean the roof, you can stay relaxed knowing that they know which methods, solutions, and equipment to use to clean the roof without damaging it. Our dedicated cleaners will adapt the cleaning procedures to your roof's condition, age, materials, and style.

    Step 1- examination

    Please get in touch with our team in Holcot for roof cleaning services. When you call, one team member can also provide you with a free quotation for the service and schedule a meeting. We're flexible, so feel free to book us whenever works for you best. It's essential to have roof cleaning specialists check out the roof and see if your roof is in much need of repair work or replacement. 

    Don't worry about damaging your landscape while we work on the roof. We always begin with removing the vehicles out of our way; we seek not to alter anything on the property.

    Step 2- we scrape the roof

    Our technicians use ladders and scaffold platforms to reach your roof. We will eliminate all dirt, debris, moss, and residue buildup on the roof with specialized equipment (moss removal tools). It's a productive method and we also have shingle scrapers for various types of shingles.

    We include dirt removal from the gutters with our roof cleaning job. If you'd like, we can save the soil and moss for the mulch in the garden. If not, we can safely take it away from your property.

    Step 3- we use low-pressure steam cleaning

    We recommend our clients steam cleaning of the roof as it has many benefits. We avoid walking on the roof and use a lance or ladders instead. We use the low steam on the pressure washer to leave the roof stain-free. Low-pressure washers are gentle and don't alter the shingles' integrity or the protective layer. This method is highly effective as it removes algae, lichens, and stains from the roof and kills their root systems.

    Step 4- we apply biocide

    Biocide is the most effective substance to kill mildew, moss, mould, fungi, and other organic substances. It's also known as the bio-wash and mould inhibitor because it prevents harmful organics and organic substances from growing. 

    The biocide treatment that our team applies has had results for a long time. The treatment is active for many months and doesn't allow moss and mould to grow. Moreover, the treatment eliminates stubborn stains and works rapidly. On top of everything else, it's really affordable.

    Step 5- clean up

    Roof cleaning can be a messy job. However, our technicians will leave the roof cleaner than ever and the property as it was before.

    How long does it take to clean roof tiles?

    The size of the roof and its condition make for the main factors affecting the length of the cleaning process. For instance, when moss has deeply influenced the roof's condition, the moss removal process will take longer than with a roof slightly affected. Additionally, the type of access to the roof tiles weighs in. Professionals can clean the roof from ground level with extendable poles; using a cherry picker is also possible, but it's more time-consuming.

    The professionals at Holcot Window Cleaners work fast and complete a roof cleaning job between 1 and 3 days. One of the most time-consuming parts of roof cleaning is the clean-up afterwards. Our technicians will remove algae and mossy build-up from your property and make sure not to cause pollution when handling biocide and bleach for cleaning. We follow all safety regulations so that nobody and nothing is affected throughout the cleaning.

    At Holcot Roof Cleaners, we have the equipment, skills, and experience to complete the roof cleaning as fast as possible. Moreover, we make sure that you have a pleasant experience with us from beginning to end.

    Contact Holcot Roof Cleaners for moss removal

    Appearance

    Moss can deeply profoundly alter the appearance of your roof and the house's curb appeal. Our Holcot Roof Cleaning team can complete your cleaning work with excellent roof cleaning.

    clean lichen free roof tiles vs mossy tiles

    Reduce damage to tiles

    A large amount of lichen (white spots) can create holes and cracks in the tiles. White lichen is tricky to remove and even a chemical treatment will give results only after a few months. Pressure washing may be necessary to remove it altogether.

    No more moss cleaning

    Moss falls on the patio and driveway and you, need to sweep them frequently. Sometimes, there's so much moss on the roof that it's falling daily. Professional roof cleaning is the most effective way to get rid of it. In such situations, the gutters are already full and cause damp and drainage problems.

    Fewer roof repairs

    Roof moss can affect roof repair work and roofers request moss removal from the roof before they proceed. Large amounts of moss can hide severe roof issues, and it's crucial to begin with moss removal.

    Frequently Asked Questions about Roof Cleaning

    Will the roofer walk around the roof?

    The cleaners at Holcot Window Cleaners use ladders or mobile scaffold platforms so that they no longer need to walk on the roof. Walking on a roof is dangerous for the roof technicians and the roof as it can cause severe damage. Our cleaners use lance technology so that the whole process goes safely and efficiently. We will reach difficult areas such as around the chimney and clean every square foot of the roof.

    What are the black spots on your roof?

    If your roof has black spots, it can actually be Gloeocapsa magma. It's an alga that leads to permanent damage as it feeds on shingle materials (all sorts). The unsightly look of the roof is just one effect of the black organic substance. The stain also makes the roof reflect heat and decreases the house's ability to stay warm. You will start using the heater more frequently, so your energy bills keep increasing every month.

    Holcot Roof Cleaners has a team of experienced technicians who can efficiently remove the black spots from any roof. When they're done, the roof will be black, spot-free and won't get stains soon.
