The roof of any home is an investment. It adds to the home value and is quite expensive to replace. So it stands to reason that taking care of the existing roof is quite important to extend the longevity. K&N Soft Wash provides professional roof cleaning with the best customer service to ensure that your roof remains in the best shape possible.

Roof cleaning is a fairly new process that began in late '80s and early '90s. It really began to remove the black streaks that so many homes and businesses have primarily in the southern United States. As cleaning of roofs became more common it was realized that the black streaks were not stains or dirt but rather algae growing because of the high humidity and heat in these southern areas.
Gloeocapsa Magma is the culprit that causes black streaks. Other forms of microorganisms can be found with the bacteria, include mold, fungi, algae, mildew, lichen, and moss. All of these micoorganisms love heat and humidity. Welcome to South Louisiana.

Many of the roofing surfaces are made with materials that can be metabolized by these microorganisms, such as shingles that now contain limestone that algae, mildew, and bacteria will absorb their nutrients and feed off the shingles.

That same Cyanobacteria Gloeocapsa Magma found on roofs will grow on wood, concrete, siding, aluminum, and other surfaces as well. The good news is that through soft washing, these stains/microorganisms can be safely removed! If these microorganisms are left to live on shingles and roof materials for prolonged period of time some of them will turn to moss. The moss has a root system that can eventually cause leaky roofing over time.
