Yes! cleaning your roof is important!

It seems like something many people don’t think about, but it is important to clean your roof regularly. It can be done by a homeowner or a professional cleaning service. 

Shingle roof – the most harmful thing to a shingle roof is moss. If you live in a damp place, it’s important to have your roof cleaned yearly to avoid moss buildup. Here in Arizona, moss isn’t too big of a concern, but long periods of no rain can cause a buildup of dirt and dust, so it is good to have your roof cleaned by a professional every few years. 

Tile roof – Regular cleaning can double the life of your tile roof. Tile roofs are super durable, but everything needs a good bath now and then. Like a shingle roof, cleaning your roof every few years will only help your roof stay in good condition. A tile roof is a huge investment, so why not protect it with regular cleanings? 

Metal roof – Deep cleanings aren’t necessary with a metal roof like other types of roofs; they are very low maintenance. Cleaning a metal roof is more about keeping it looking nice rather than helping with its longevity.
