Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to work? A moss and mold roof treatment normally takes around 20 weeks to remove the moss and mold from your roof. It will also keep it clean for up to 2 years post-treatment. The entire roof is saturated as the roof treatment is applied, and it immediately begins to work to kill unsightly growths.
How is the Roof Treatment applied? Our roof treatment is applied by a commercial spray machine. As a result of natural weathering from rain and wind, the dead growths are gradually removed and flushed away without damaging the surface.
Do you need to walk on my roof? No, the majority of roofs are sprayed from the gutter line. If your house has difficult to access areas, then we might be required to spray the upper levels from the lower level. In this case, we take all possible precautions to ensure that your roofing material is not harmed.
Can the Roof Treatment be applied in wet weather? No, we require a dry surface for the treatment to work correctly, light rain 3-4 hours after the application is acceptable.
How do I know that it's working? The lichen, mold, and moss will begin to turn red/purple then white or a light yellow colour. This indicates that it is dying away, and over the ensuing weeks, the wind and rain will wash or blow it off the roof.
Does The Roof Wash Guy guarantee their work? 100% we are extremely confident in our materials, methods and workmanship.
