Roof Cleaning in San Marcos, California

The wind and the shade work on the San Marcos roofs, and the algae grows on the shaded slopes. Roof cleaning in San Marcos removes the dust, the growth, and the debris and restores the roof.

Signs Your San Marcos Roof Needs Cleaning

• The dust covering the roof — the Santa Ana wind blows the dust onto the surface
• The dark streaks on the roof — the algae is growing on the shaded slopes
• The green patches on the roof — the moss is growing in the damp areas
• The debris on the roof — the leaves and the debris are covering the surface
• The shingles are lifting from the moss — the moss is growing under the shingles

Why San Marcos Roofs Need Cleaning

The wind and the shade create the conditions for the buildup. The dust from the Santa Ana wind traps the moisture and the shaded slopes grow the algae and the moss.

The buildup traps the moisture and degrades the shingles. The cleaning removes the dust, the growth, and the debris and the roof lasts longer.

Preventing Roof Problems in San Marcos

• Trim the branches over the roof — the shade feeds the algae and the moss
• Clean the roof every 2 to 3 years — the regular cleaning prevents the buildup
• Check the north-facing slopes — the shaded slopes grow the algae first
• Clear the dust regularly — the Santa Ana wind blows the dust onto the roof

Expert tip: in San Marcos, the soft washing is the right method. The pressure washing forces the water under the shingles and strips the granules. The soft washing kills the algae and rinses the dust and the debris without the damage.
