Moss & Algae Removal in Kingman, Arizona

The dry Kingman desert is not the ideal environment for the moss and the algae. The low humidity and the intense sun keep the growth at a minimum. Moss and algae removal in Kingman means the dust and the dirt from the desert and the rare algae stains on the shaded north slopes.

Signs Your Kingman Roof Needs Cleaning

• Dark streaks on the north-facing slopes — the algae is forming in the shade
• Red or green patches on the shaded areas — the rare moss growth in the damp spots
• Dust buildup on the roof surface — the valley wind leaves the layer
• Stains below the trees — the tree debris and the shade create the damp spots
• Granules in the gutters with the dirt — the roof is shedding the surface

Why Kingman Roofs Get Stained

The desert dust is the main cause of the staining in Kingman. The valley wind blows the fine dirt onto the roof and it settles into the surface. The dust holds the moisture and creates the environment for the algae.

The north-facing slopes are the only areas where the algae can grow. The sun never hits those slopes and the morning dew stays longer. The algae forms the dark streaks over the years.

How We Clean Roofs in Kingman

1. Inspect the roof surface — check the shingles, the flashing, and the granules
2. Apply the cleaning solution — the low-pressure spray with the algae killer
3. Let the solution work — the dwell time breaks down the stains
4. Rinse with the low pressure — the soft wash removes the dirt without the damage
5. Treat the north slope — the extra treatment for the algae-prone areas

Preventing Roof Stains in Kingman

• Trim the trees that shade the roof — the sun dries the roof and prevents the algae
• Rinse the roof after a dust storm — the water removes the dust before it settles
• Install the zinc strips on the north slope — the zinc prevents the algae growth
• Check the north-facing sections each spring — the early treatment stops the stains

The Kingman desert is not the moss capital, but the north-facing slopes still get the algae and the wind leaves the dirt. The soft wash cleaning every few years keeps the roof looking new.
