Why does your Rotonda Home's Roof Look, Dirty, Blackened and Ugly? It's Infested With Algae!

Yes, many Rotonda West Florida homes have their beautiful appearance spoiled by allowing an algae infestation to flourish on their Tile or Shingled Roofs. Here at Chuck Bergman Roof Cleaning and Pressure Washing, we have been safely removing this dirty appearing, black growth for many years! My business started here 33981 in 1989. I started out just pressure washing roofs back then and they did come out looking clean. However, I saw the damage my pressure washer was doing to roofs, but knew of no other way to clean them, at that time. Obviously, on shingled roofs, a pressure cleaning method, blows the granules off the roof, as it cleans it. My estimate, is that you lose about 15% of your shingled roof granules per pressure washing. If you clean an older roof, for the 1st time [ say a 12 year old roof, that has been blackened with algae for a number of years, you could lose up to 50% of your granules in one power washing job! For many years now, I have learned to clean roofs according to the roofing manufacturers instructions, which is a gentle, totally Non-Pressure cleaning system. { WATCH THIS 2 MINUTE VIDEO OF US CLEANING THIS ROTONDA ROOF } http://www.tubechop.com/watch/474113 I am also [at the time of this writing] the only "Florida Certified" Roof Cleaner in Charlotte County Florida.

Over time mildew and black roof algae can breakdown the shingles or tile glazings and slurry coatings and dramatically shorten the life of your roof. An algae / mildew-covered roof also keeps attic temperatures much higher by prevented the reflective capabilities of the shingle granules or tiles from doing functioning as the manufacturer intended. Thus making your air conditioner work harder and longer, increasing your electric bills. Generally, the reason homeowners want their roofs cleaned in Rotonda West is to keep them looking clean and new.
