Writing For A Roof Cleaning Website
Permalink  
 


A roof cleaning website must be found in a roof cleaning search to be effective.
This material was originally written by my good friend Mike Sullivan, owner of Pressure Washing Pro, a  North Carolina Roof Cleaning Company.
I copied it, and ran it through my optimizer program, and added some keywords.'
THIS is an example of how to write a roof cleaning webpage that will get found.

Mike did 90 percent of the work, I just fine tuned it a bit


Tampa Roof Cleaning By Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa 813 655 8777
What you should know about cleaning your Tampa roof...

Your house is most likely your biggest investment and your roof is one of the most expensive parts of your house. It is extremely important to have the utmost in confidence in your decision before hiring a qualified Tampa Roof Cleaning Contractor.

Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa only use chemicals approved by the ARMA* Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association and does not use pressure on your roof shingles. We also provide our roof cleaning customers with a technical bulletin directly from Asphaltroofing.org to prove that our roof cleaning procedures and chemicals are properly formulated for roof cleaning. Our chemicals provide enough cleaning power to remove all roof mold, mildew, and black streaks on your roof...without any pressure washing or heavy rinsing. We guarantee your Tampa Roof will look brand new after cleaning.

Pressure washing is never recommended to clean a roof in Tampa because it will remove a large amount of the ceramic coated granules from your  shingles, which will void the roofing warranty. Even low pressure will cause roof granule loss and shorten the life of your roofing shingles. If you have ever cleaned out the inside of your gutters you will notice dislodhed roofing granules in them just from the rain taking them off. Think what any additional pressure would do to your roof. For instance, you see someone cleaning a roof in Tampa with pressure and it appears they have done a good roof cleaning job just because the black streaks and roof discoloration are gone, but guess what? So is a large amount of the roofs protective ceramic coated granules which insure your shingle's warranty. Nobody wants to replace a prematurely failed roof in Tampa due to an incompetent roof cleaning contractor, and you shouldn't have to.

Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa offer an Unconditional 1 year clean roof warranty against any streaks reappearing on your shingles.

Always use a 'chemical only' cleaning process for your roof. Roof Cleaning is a completely different trade from pressure washing, requiring different pumps, plumbing, hoses, nozzles, valves, chemicals, caution, knowledge, experience, skill, and insurance. Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa has all of the necessary tools, and we have taught the roof cleaning trade to others.

Make sure you know what kind of roof cleaning chemicals are being applied on your property. Do not accept "it's biodegradable" for an answer. Even uranium is biodegradable over 50,000 years or so. Our roof cleaning chemicals do all of the work to remove black streaks and Algae discoloration from your roof and require no pressure or heavy rinsing. Because we do not have to rinse, your roof will stay cleaner longer than our competitors. Leaving the  chemicals on the roof creates a roof treatment or a hostile environment for future algae growth. Each time it rains, a small amount of roof cleaning chemical is washed off to help re-clean your roof over and over again.


Concerned about your plants, pets, and landscaping?

We only spray the roof, not your plants. We always bag the ends of your downspouts and collect all the chemical run-off from the roof and dispose of them away from your landscaping. After the roof cleaning chemical biodegrades and evaporates from the roof, the dried crystals and surfactant act as a roof treatment and keep the roof cleaner longer as it rains.

Great information Chris.I like the way that was worded. Sometimes it's difficult to express the importance of leaving the Roof Cleaning chemicals on the Roof verses rinsing it off to the customer. This is a pefect way to explain it to them. 2 thumbs up on the Roof Cleaning explanation!!!

Some roof cleaning customers are unable to grasp the concept of treating a roof.

I had a few people last season actually ask me about preventive spraying. I think that is something I'm gonna start pushing a little this year. If you can get HOA's and any other type of developments interested that could get "contagious" real fast I think. Educating the potential customer is the key. Fortunately for us, the proof that the problem exists is before their very eyes. By the way Chris, I used a couple of things from the write up you put up here for my website, if it's a problem let me know.

Do any of you guys have a door hanger that you use like on the neighbors houses after you do a job that I could take a look at please?

I bought a box of blank door hangers and I want to try out different messages to see if they would work but have not thought of anything to put on them yet.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

 Any time you can incorporate picture into roof cleaning advertisements is a BIG plus. I am just now getting a website done, simply because pictures are what sells my service more than anything else. So, I will be doing door hangers this year also,...and I think I will be directing potential customers to my website more than anything else. I can't believe I've been doing this for so long and am just now getting a site up.

Oh NO, no problem Jeff, use what you like.
Sometimes I get lazy, and borrow too, we all do.
It's all good, just like an all PA Super Bowl

Actually, I feel sorry for Andy Reid, and all the personal problems with his kids he has had.
And, I  would like to see the Eagles vs the Steelers here in Tampa ?
Tampa will be full of Pennsylvania License Plates if that happens.

As a customer I would expect  and deserve the plain simple truth.  There isn't any reason to hide anything,...what were doing is legit and recommended by shingle maunfacturers. I suggest you keep the ARMA bulletin in your vehichles at all times,...this will smooth things over real quick if there is an issue with your product. I have never run into anyone questioning me,.. they just want results.  If you start being "secretive" then they will think something IS wrong.

Here's another shingle manufacturer print out.

The more proof you have the better.

Also tell customers if your competitors do not show them any evidence that their chemicals are approved by shingle manufacturers, which is pretty much all the time, then they most likely will cause more harm than good.
