Will Copper Strips Keep Your Roof Clean ?

Published on by Apple Roof Cleaning

Roof cleaning measures such as pressure washing can remove or roughen the surface of the roofing material, reducing the intended productive life of the roof. At best it is a messy, temporary solution which would need to be repeated frequently. This sort of procedure also does nothing to kill the spores that created the Algae and Black Mold.  Plus, Pressure Washing will damage your roof!  will give more details. Look at some of the damage it can cause below.

Copper strips is a natural “solution” to roof moss, algae and mold problems.
We feel Copper Strips perform far better then Zinc Strips do here in the Tampa, Florida area.
When fitted on a clean roof, by experts about whose contact information you can find here, the Copper Strip will HELP, but not totally prevent plant growth on your Florida Roof by exposure to air and water which causes the copper to oxidise, creating Copper Sulphate which runs down the length of your roof in the rain water. Gutter Cleaning helps to minimise unnecessary weight on the roof that can affect its integrity and longevity. 1 OAK Roofing is just what you need.

This is deadly to roof plant spores and will therefore HELP keep your roof free from Algae. This effect is obvious under copper vent pipes or lead flashing’s under chimneys. Mind you, that flat roofs are easier to maintain and keep clean.

Copper Strips —the low cost, natural alternative to repetitive roof cleaning, HELPS put an end to moss, algae and Mold on your Tampa Florida roof. It is also widely used by most Denver commercial roofing companies. If you require any help with the replacement or repairs of your roof, contact us today.

I feel the Copper Strips work, to a degree.

Plus, the Copper Strips look FAR better in our opinion, taking on a nice Copper Patina over time.

 Aside from aesthetics, shingle roof cleaning is necessary here in Tampa, to assure that you get the proper life from your roof, keep your A/C expenses lower, and for health reasons. 

The culprit causing your roof to discolor here in Tampa and look so bad is algae, and it WILL shorten the life of your shingle roof, it WILL make your roof darker and thus hotter from the sun’s rays.  This will make your home hotter, as well as speed the deterioration of your shingles. 

After reading review of the best gasoline petrol pressure washer, we use only ARMA (Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association) approved roof cleaning solutions, as well as specialized roof cleaning equipment designed to clean your shingle roof, while keeping it safe from damage.  Click here to read ARMA’s suggestions and cautions against using pressure washing equipment on your roof. 

Hello from a dirty shingle roof in Tampa Palms!

We do not use any type of pressure washer on your roof.  We do not use damaging shingle roof cleaning products that require pressurized water to complete the cleaning, such as sodium hydroxide. 

 We take every precaution necessary to protect your plants and the exterior of your home.  Unlike most of our “competitors”, we employ the use of a dedicated ground person to keep the house and foliage well rinsed before, during, and after the shingle roof is treated with our Apple Sauce.  This will assure that your plants will not die, your house will not be damaged, and no one will be injured during the cleaning process.  Do you really want some inexperienced part time pressure washing contractor falling off your roof while you’re at work, and then blaming you for his lack of experience and safety?

 We have seen it many times, an inexperienced part time pressure washer on a customer’s shingle roof in Tampa, blasting away at full pressure, using little or no cleaning chemicals or algaecides, and causing damage to a roof that likely won’t be noticed for years.  Don’t be a victim of inexperience.  With Apple Roof Cleaning Of Tampa, you can “Experience the Difference, Because the Difference is Experience!” 

 Ask about our annual maintenance program!  Our cleaning system will keep your roof algae free for quite some time, but nothing will stop the algae from eventually beginning to grow again in your roof’s surface, long before it becomes visible to the eye.  By that time, the algae is well rooted into the surface of your shingle, and has already been degrading the integrity of your shingles for months or years.  After your initial cleaning, we can apply, at a significant discount,  an annual re-treatment to kill the algae that has already begun to grow back.  This will assure that your roof will last as long as possible.
