Lakeland roof cleaning is one of the most important forms of maintenance that you need to be doing for your home, as your roof is one of the largest structures of your home. If you’re already aware of this, then great. But if this is your first time looking for a roof cleaning professional for your home, then it can be easy to get confused with what roof cleaning option to go with for your own roof. There are two main forms of Lakeland roof cleaning: soft washing and pressure washing.
Here are 2020 SoftWash, we endorse the soft washing method of roof cleaning for your roof because of the numerous benefits to your roof. Of course, you might be wondering why other people would use pressure washing if soft washing is supposed to be so beneficial. There is no denying that pressure washing has its place in the roof cleaning industry, but soft washing is simply a much more effective form of roof cleaning.
The effectiveness of soft washing as a roof cleaning method lies in how it is being carried out. Soft washing relies on chemicals to remove the presence of algae and moss on the surface of a roof, followed up with a stream of water, nothing as strong as the kind that they use for pressure washing. At 2020 Soft Wash, we use environmentally-friendly chemicals, so your roof gets cleaned without your worrying about damaging your lawn and other plants in your home.
Soft washing, as the name suggests, is a much gentler cleaning method of roof cleaning, which is significantly beneficial for roofs with older roof times. Pressure washing older roofs usually ends up in damaged roof tiles which can stack up and end up costing you a lot in repairs. Not only that, but soft washing’s method of cleaning helps tackle the moss and algae problem from its root, as the chemicals destroy the root of the moss and algae without damaging the structure of your roof tiles.
Removing the root of the algae and moss helps guarantee that it will not reemerge for another few years, which saves you money and grief. With pressure washing, you end up removing the surface layer of dirt without touching the root, which is why roofs cleaned with pressure washing usually see a repeat incidence of algae and moss growth in a short span of time.
Here at 2020 SoftWash & Window Cleaning, we use the soft washing method of roof cleaning to make sure that your roof gets the careful cleaning that it needs to extend its lifespan and put your worries to rest.
