Reduce your energy bill

The presence of dark-colored moss, lichen, and Gloeocapsa Magma (cyanobacteria algae) makes your roof much hotter than it was designed to handle, 50+ degrees in some cases! As your ceiling fans, and A/C units work overtime to compensate for the heat build up, the biggest impact of all is on your energy bill.

The additional heat not only makes your home feel like an oven, but causes petroleum based asphalt shingles and other roof surfaces to dry out and crack, leaking in moisture and leaking out your bank account to pay for the inevitable roof replacement and other repairs!

Protect your Roof

The added heat isn’t the only culprit. Roots from organic growth burrow deep into your roof substrate. As time goes by the organic growth will naturally grow and expand with rain and sun. Over time this can eventually cause cracks and fissures in your roof, allowing water in and causing damage to your attic space and more.

The dark streaks on your roof are unsightly to look at and a strong indication that the organic growth is getting out of control.
Leaving organic growth unchecked can lead to damaged shingles, leaks, premature roof replacements, higher energy costs, lowered property values, and higher premiums on your homeowner’s insurance!

Save Money!

Our #1 goal is to SAVE YOU MONEY on your energy costs, and prevent an early roof replacement from the damaging effects of long term organic growth. Roofs are designed to have a 25-30 year useful life, but that reduces significantly with the presence of dark-colored organic growth. So instead of giving HECO more of your money, consider getting your roof Professionally cleaned to instantly cool your house, save money on your energy bill, and prevent an expensive roof replacement!
