Professional Roof Cleaning For Whippany NJ
We do not use a pressure washer to clean roofs! The roof is fragile and expensive. In most cases we need not step foot on the roof. We are simply treating the stains with a detergent that kills moss, dissolve black bacteria stains, all while complying with all roof manufacturers recommended cleaning procedure. Our detergent does contain 1 parts sodium hypochlorite (bleach), there for all precautions are taken to cover and rinse landscape and reclaim any run off from the gutter leader.
The biggest purchasers of sodium hypochlorite are local municipalities. This is what is added to our drinking water to keep it sterile. I’m not saying you can drink our product but it is safe yet effective when used properly. Sodium hypochlorite is also used in larger quantities to treat swimming water. Some commonly call it “pool shock” when referring to sodium hypochlorite pertaining to swimming pools. It has the ability to adversely effect the landscape. The majority of the work to treat a roof is spent securing and rinsing the area. Our detergent is 100% compatible to the roofing shingle. You may void the warranty of the roof if a pressure washer is used. We do not use pressure washers. We apply the detergent then leave it. The first few rains will rinse the roof. Any black staining will disappear immediately. Moss and lichen can take a few weeks to decompose and wash away.
Roof Moss Removal Whippany NJ
If you see moss on the roof and it lingers through brisk wind and rain, then you know it has developed a root system into the roofing shingle. It is best not to forcibly remove the moss by scrubbing or pressure washing. Our detergent will soak to the root of the moss and rend
er it dead within 5 to 10 minutes. You can see instantly all of the moss turn white. Within 2 to 3 hours it will start turning brown like a dead plant. It will dry out
and decompose and detach from the root system. It will slowly wash awaywith the rains. This process is slow. It will not clog into the
gutter.
Exterior Pressure Clean and Soft Wash
Every process we clean requires a pretreatment with a detergent. Depending on the stain will tell which type of detergent to use and the strength. Roof cleanings are unique in the type of organic growth plus the shingle material. Plus we do not rinse roofs. Everything else can be followed up with rinsing. We clean siding by applying a low pressure detergent with a hint of bleach. Most of the staining on a building is organic like mold or mildew. So there needs to be something with sterilizing features and bleach is a great one. Siding strength detergent will not affect landscape like grass or bushes. Delicate annuals would need to be covered. This process is safe for all types of surfaces such as vinyl, stucco, dryvit, cedar and even painted surfaces. We also soft wash pool decks with soft cement, wood and Trex decks (composite wood), vinyl fences, gutter cleaning and whitening, children toys, patio furniture and more.
