HOW K&N SOFT WASH ROOF CLEANING WORKS
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 its longevity. K&N Soft Wash It 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 the 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 no 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 that can be found with the bacteria include mold, fungi, algae, mildew, lichen, and moss. All of these microorganisms 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 where 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 a 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.
K&N SOFT WASH uses soft washing to restore the quality of your roofing. It's the safest way to rid a roof of these microorganisms along with dirt and other contaminants from each and every shingle. Combining effective cleaning solutions with our detail-oriented soft washing method, our team will restore your roof and help the roof to live up to its life expectancy.
WHAT IS SOFT WASHING?
Soft washing is a cleaning method using low pressure and specialized solutions to safely remove mildew, bacteria, algae and other organic stains from roofs and other building exteriors. Manufacturers Association recommends low-pressure washing as the preferred method for cleaning asphalt roofs in order to prevent damage to the shingles.
Soft washing is using an electric agricultural sprayer to apply a water-based, biodegradable disinfecting cleaning solution to kill the mold, mildew, bacteria, algae, fungus, moss, and more on exterior home and building surfaces. While the roof is affected, it begins to lose its ability to reflect UV rays and eventually rots the shingles. This has been said to affect roofs severely and can take up to 10 years off the life of a roof. Soft washing is the only way to effectively remove this alga without damaging the shingles and voiding any warranty.
