Homeowners in the area are being reminded of the importance of roof maintenance, as organic growth such as algae, moss, and lichen can lead to significant problems if left untreated.

According to local experts, dark streaks and organic growth on roofs can accelerate the need for costly roof replacement. The issue has become serious enough that some homeowners insurance companies are declining to renew policies for properties with organic growth in specific cases.

The consequences of ignoring roof maintenance extend beyond insurance concerns. Algae, moss, and lichen growth can cause granular loss, wood rot, increased utility costs, and reduced home value. In some cases, untreated roofs have resulted in insurance cancellation.

Prestige Home Solutions, a 5-star Google-rated company, offers professional roof washing services designed to address these issues before they become expensive problems. The service uses a specialized blend of algaecide, fungicide, and detergents to gently remove organic growth and staining from roofs.

“Roof washing is an affordable preventative measure that can save homeowners thousands of dollars in early roof replacement and costly home repairs,” according to the company.

Prestige Home Solutions is licensed, insured, and offers free, guaranteed quotes for interested homeowners. The company can be reached by calling or texting 423-463-0580.
