What Can Moss Do To My Roof If It’s Not Removed?
Moss removal isn’t a frivolous expense; it can literally save your roofing system. Demossing is a vital step for roof care, as are moss treatments. The goal is not just to remove existing lichen but prevent future growth. If ignored, moss can severely damage and compromise the structural integrity of your rooftop.
What Are Those Black Streaks On My Roof?
Although commonly mistaken for superficial dirt, the black streaks on your roof are a type of destructive algae - Gloeocapsa magma. As they accumulate over time, they develop this dark, hardened coating, and that’s the stains you see. This form of lichen feeds on the limestone, breaking down your shingles. Ignoring this developing problem can have dire consequences for your roof.
