Algae growth on roofs can cause several significant issues. First. and foremost, the most recognizable issue is the unsightly dark streaks on the roof's surface. These streaks will eventually lead to damaging moss growth and the need for costly premature replacement long before your roof is ready. It's been said that over 70% of roofs in the United States are replaced too early.
Secondly, algae retain moisture, which can lead to the growth of moss and lichen mentioned previously. This additional growth keeps shingles damp, further deteriorating them. Damp shingles are more prone to damage and can lead to structural issues over time. Moss grows underneath the shingles and lifts them from the roof surface exposing areas susceptible to water leaks.
Thirdly, algae can slowly degrade shingles by causing them to lose their granules. These granules are crucial for protecting the roof from UV rays and weather elements. Without them, shingles are less effective and more susceptible to damage, tearing, cracking and curling.
Finally, the presence of algae and the associated moisture plus degradation can significantly shorten the lifespan of asphalt shingles. This shortening of life leads to more frequent repairs, replacements, and increasing long-term maintenance costs.

I couldn’t be happier with Buckeye Roof Rejuvenate! Nick and the team were friendly, professional, on time, and incredibly thorough. They removed years of moss and dirt making the roof look brand new again. Communication was smooth from start to finish. They also took great care to protect the landscaping and items around our house. I highly recommend this company if you’re looking for reliable, high-quality roof cleaning!
We recently had our home soft washed with Nick and his team. The communication we received before and after the service was timely and comprehensive. Our home looks wonderful and Nick took the time to follow up and make certain we were satisfied. We would recommend and continue to use Buckeye Roof Cleaning without hesitation!
Alec and his team did a fine job cleaning the vinyl siding on the front of our house, and for a reasonable price, too. We would gladly use Buckeye Roof Cleaning in the future.
