Roof Cleaning Olney MD – FAQ

Q. What are the stains actually up on your roof?

1. Most people will tell you it’s all from the trees, possibly from planes, and leaf stains. But, all of these assumptions are wrong. The ugly black streaks are blue-green algae known as Gloeocapsa Magma that is spread by airborne spores. These spores attack the lime that your shingles are made from.

Q. What is the best way to clean this Gloeocapsa Magma?

1. The absolute best way to clean an Asphalt roof and the only process that ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association) Suggests is our no pressure roof cleaning solution process. We use a specially formulated chemical combination to kill all the algae without the use of a pressure washer at all.

Q. Will the chemical kill or at least damage our plants, grass, etc?
