As a professional Roof Cleaning St. Louis company, it amazes me to see how many roof cleaners are starting to clean roofs in the St. Louis area. And what amazes me even more is they are tearing up roofs in the process when roof cleaning St. Louis. This article is going to discuss some of the myths about roof cleaning St. Louis company.

The First myth is using a pressure washer on a roof. There is NEVER a need to use a pressure washer on the roof. A lot of new companies have pictures of a guy up on a roof, blasting away at the shingles, removing the algae and removing the granules along with it. Now instead of saving you thousands of dollars in replacement cost, you will be out the high cost of replacement of your roof because some guy that claims he is a roof cleaning St. Louis company just tore up your shingles.

The Second myth is some roof cleaning St. Louis companies are telling homeowners they have to brush the shingles using a stiff bristled brush to remove the algae. The same thing happens here. When brushing the shingles, you are causing the granules to loosen from the shingles as well, causing the shingle to fail faster than what it needs to. So now, your out thousands again because the roof cleaning St. Louis company chose a ill effective way to clean your roof.

The third Myth is some roof cleaning St. Louis companies will tell you they will treat your roof, but then wait on the rain to wash everything off. Your paying for a roof cleaning right? You want it cleaned, not just treated then left. That would be like soaping up in the shower and waiting until it rains to wash the soap off. This is one of the most ridiculous things we hear as a professional roof cleaning St. Louis company. So many guys that claim they are a professional roof cleaning St. Louis company want to hurry up too fast and collect a check for a ½ job and get out of there. That is nonsense. Make sure your roof also gets rinsed off after the roof cleaning St. Louis detergent is put down. And make sure they are not using a pressure washer to rinse off your roof either.

In the above statement, there is one exception. There are lichens that sometimes attach themselves to the roof. When the roof cleaning solution is applied, it will kill these lichens, but they have roots that are attached to the shingles. It usually takes 4-6 weeks for these to fall off on their own without doing damage to the shingles.
