Guide To Roof Cleaners

Having a roof that leaks and in non working order is no fun. We are here to help you get that roof repaired or go through your renovation with you. This is a site dedicated to all of your roofing needs, and we always have the best information. We hope that you will find the article below about roof cleaners, as useful as we do.

Cleaning your roof can give you many benefits. Not only will the roof look better once stains are removed, but it will also increase your property value, lengthen the life of your roof, and increase energy efficiency. There are several products out there that can clean your roof with varying degrees of success and dangers.

1. Chlorine and water is the cheaper cleaning solution that has been around for many years. However, chlorine is toxic to plants and animals so precautions need to be used to protect landscaping and people that may be affected by runoff or spray. Chlorine generally works faster and takes less rinsing, so it saves wear on the roof shingles.

2. Sodium hydroxide cleaners are somewhat safer than chlorine for the plants, but it is still toxic to people and animals. This particular chemical is good for cutting grease, which may damage asphalt shingles if used in too high of a concentration or left on too long.

3. Kleanco Inc. offers a roof cleaning concentrate that will not harm plants or animals and does not need high pressure washers that could damage shingles if used improperly. This roof cleaner is water-based. It does not contain harmful chemicals such as bleach, acids, solvents, or phosphates. Mixed with 7 gallons of water, one gallon of cleaner will clean approximately 200 square feet of roof. This roof cleaner will remove the fungus that causes stains on asphalt/fiberglass shingles. It can also be used to clean brick or concrete as well as wood fences or wood shingles. Once applied with the sprayer, the cleaner is rinsed off with water using the pressure of a typical water hose.
