Chemical Roof Cleaning
After our years of experience in
roof cleaning, we recommend chemical cleaning processes for most types of roofing materials. This is a controversial topic among roofing companies and roof cleaners, who find fault with the chemicals used. The problem isn’t the chemicals, however. The problem with
chemical roof cleaning is when people perform it carelessly. At OCD Power Cleaning, we make sure to do it right so that you get all the benefits without the downsides.
The benefits of chemical roof cleaning derive from the lack of high pressure, which can erode the color, finish, and strength of tile roofs. Additionally, the chemical cleaning process provides a longer-lasting clean by killing the mold and mildew living deep in the microscopic pores of clay, concrete, mortar stucco mix, coated concrete, or even painted elastomeric coating roofing elements. High pressure washes, on the other hand, widen and deepen these pores and actually given mold and mildew a better stronghold in your roof.
Those who condemn chemical cleaning are concerned about the corrosive nature of these chemicals, which can eat through your roof and cause leaks if left on the roof. This is a valid concern, but that only happens when lazy power washing companies spray the chemicals on your roof and then leave them behind. At OCD Power Cleaning, we employ a careful process that dilutes the chemicals to a neutralized state. After applying the chemical treatment, we stick around and rinse the roof with light power washing or no-
pressure washing for another 30 minutes or more, taking care that the draining water lands safely on tarps and continues to be diluted before even reaching the ground, safeguarding not only your roof but also your lawn and plants. We give the chemical just enough time to kill whatever growths may be in the roofing pores, but not enough time to harm the roof itself. We value your roof, and we want it to remain solid, clean, and growth-free long after we leave.
