If you’re a homeowner or business owner, taking care of your roof should be a top priority. Right next to dusting the cobwebs out of your bookshelf, keeping your roof clear of any debris or stains is the first roof cleaning solution to keep in mind.
To preserve the life of your roof, you should have it cleaned annually or as needed. If moss and lichen have started to grow or if tree limbs have fallen on your roof, it’s recommended to clean your roof immediately so that further damage doesn’t occur.
Why You Should Clean Your Houston Roof
Your roof is exposed to many elements throughout the year. From strong winds to extreme downpours, your asphalt shingles can deteriorate over time without proper cleaning. Extra moisture in the air can create the perfect environment for mold and algae to grow on your roof shingles, which is not only unattractive but damaging. Whether you decided to do it yourself or hire a professional, regular cleaning is the primary way to extend the life of your roof.
The Best Time to Clean Your Roof
While your circumstances might change, it’s usually best to clean your roof during the summer months when there is an adequate amount of sunshine and minimal rain. That being said, if your roof starts to show signs of needing a roof wash or has suffered damage, it’s best to not delay. Keeping an eye on your roof’s condition and scheduling yearly inspections will ensure that your roof is maintained properly.
Pro Tip: Installing gutters will minimize damages caused by mold and mildew. A gutter system will ensure that rainwater drains properly and keeps exterior surfaces dry.
Cleaning Your Roof
When the time comes for you to clean your roof, it’s important to not use harsh chemicals or other cleaning products that will end up damaging your shingles. Be sure to clear limbs and leaves before using a cleaning solution to remove stains and kill mildew. With a garden hose or light water sprayer, wash the roof before applying a preventative treatment. NEVER use a pressure washer for composite shingles; the high pressure is strong enough to remove shingles and will result in costly roof repairs.
Conclusion
When’s the last time you cleaned your roof? If you own a home or business, it’s important to add roof cleaning to your yearly home maintenance. You’ll save money by guarding against a roof replacement and keep your roof looking like new by removing the stains.

If you’re looking to buy a new home or are a seasoned homeowner, knowing the condition of your roof is critical. Hiring and scheduling an inspector to come look at your roof is the first step, but what happens after that? What should you expect the next time someone comes to inspect your roof?
Day of Inspection
Without proper home maintenance, you might have to have your roof repaired or replaced. Problems ranging from leaky roofs to curled shingles could be a sign of a bigger issue. Whether you’re thinking about scheduling a roof inspection or want to see if you can do it on your own, there are important features to check.
- Introduction
- Interior roof review
- Exterior roof review
- Details discussed
- Recommendations
1) Introduction
A roof inspection usually starts with an introduction between the inspector and the homeowner. If you’ve never worked with the roofing company before, this meeting will most likely be your first impression of their quality and service. As a homeowner, you should have a list of questions prepared to ask to ensure they have the experience and qualifications to perform a roof inspection.
2) Interior roof review
After you’re able to meet the inspector, he or she will ask for permission to enter your attic. Inspecting the roof from the inside identifies potential problems that might be caused by the roof. The inspector will ensure that there is proper ventilation and that the insulation hasn’t been compromised in any way. If water stains are present, he might report that there is moisture or mold growing.
3) Exterior roof review
The next step will have the roof inspector go outside. He will walk around the house to check for a proper gutter system and roofing problems that can be seen from the ground. Next, he’ll use a ladder to go up on the roof to check for weathering and water damage. Issues ranging from leaks, ice dams, the condition of the asphalt shingles, proper flashing, and the chimney quality will all be reviewed.
Pro Tip: Installing a comprehensive gutter system not only increases the longevity of your roof but can greatly improve the water buildup around your home.
4) Details discussed
After the inspection from the ground and on top of the roof have been completed, the inspector will review his findings with you. If there is an issue that is discovered, he will most likely create a course of action to protect your home and provide an immediate solution.
5) Recommendations
Once you’ve been able to review the inspector’s report, the inspection will likely end with a recommendation. If you’re selling your home, the findings could be sent to the new owners so that they’re aware of the roof’s condition. If you’re interested in repair or replacement, the recommendations can be forwarded to a roofing contractor for consideration.

With winter around the corner, it’s time to get your house ready to withstand the colder temperatures. Getting your house prepared starts with your roof, especially since it’s what keeps your home warm and dry inside. Don’t neglect this important step this season; winterize your roof–your family and pocketbook will thank you!
Winterize Now, Keep Warm Later
We’re starting to get a taste of cooler weather, which means the chance of snow and ice is increasing. This is the time to winterize your roof. Without proper preparation, your roof could collapse and end up ruining your winter vacation. Focus on these ways to protect the roof of your home this season.
- Inspect your Houston roof
- Trim the tree limbs
- Empty the gutters
- Replace caulking
- Watch out for pests
1) Inspect your Houston roof
The first step of getting prepared is to perform a roof inspection.
- On the exterior, check for damaged shingles, mold, or rotted wood that could worsen with cooler weather. If you have a chimney, schedule a cleaning and ensure that it has proper ventilation.
- After you’ve checked the outside of the house, don’t forget to inspect the inside. Subtle leaks in the ceiling or problems with the attic insulation could be a sign of a bigger problem from the roof.
2) Trim the tree limbs
The next step is to look at the trees that might surround your house. In the case of a severe storm, overhanging trees can snap and the tree branches might land on your roof. Without taking this step beforehand, your house might be exposed to the wind and rain.
3) Empty the gutters
You should be cleaning your gutters throughout the year, but it’s important to ensure they’re empty and working properly as you’re winterizing your roof. If you have clogged gutters, melting snow and ice won’t have a place to drain and will end up causing water damage.
Pro Tip: Avoiding damage to your home’s exterior starts with a gutter system. It’s a good idea to clean them every 3 months to keep your foundation and roof in the best shape.
4) Replace caulking
If you’re a homeowner, you’re probably familiar with caulk. It’s used to seal joints, seams, and every other corner imaginable. As the temperatures start to drop outside, it’s important to make sure the caulk throughout your house hasn’t become wrinkled or cracked. Replacing the caulk will prevent air leaks and improve your energy efficiency.
5) Watch out for pests
As the winter season approaches, be aware that pests might build nests or create holes in your roof to stay warm. From squirrels to birds to rats, you’ll have stay on watch throughout the season. Consider hiring a pest control expert to help you look for signs of damage before your roof needs repair.
Have you winterized your Woodlands home yet?
If you don’t have the time or resources available for preparation, consider hiring a professional service to inspect and clean your roof. There shouldn’t be any reason your home isn’t ready for the cold weather. The longevity and durability of your roof depend on it.
