Chuck Bergman No Pressure Roof Cleaning, also Pressure Washing in Englewood, Venice, Port Charlotte, Punta Gorda, Boca Grande and most of Charlotte and Sarasota Counties in Florida.
We specialize in the cleaning of roofs and offer the newest and only "approved" [ by the roofing association ] " NO PRESSURE " roof cleaning system. For asphalt shingle roofs, this system is a must and can add years to your expensive roof's life! Pressure cleaning a shingled roof removes a large percentage of the granules, that make up the surface and color of your roof. Even tile roofs benefit from our "NO PRESSURE" system, in that high pressure will send small pieces of tile and especially the cement holding your ridges in place, off into space! Also, if you have a finish on your roof, such as a solid paint coat or a glazing, high pressure can peel the paint or dull the glazing. Many Pressure Washers advertise "NO PRESSURE" but don't actually own the equipment. They simply use their pressure washing machine's chemical injector and end up using "SOME" pressure anyway and explaining [ if you see them do it ] that they turned the pressure way down. "SURE THEY DID!"
ANY pressure will remove much of your asphalt shingle granules! Click below to go to the roofing manufacturers association and read for yourself it's simple clear statement about pressure- "HIGH PRESSURE WASHING SYSTEMS FOR ALGAE REMOVAL SHOULD NOT BE USED" http://www.asphaltroofing.org/pdf/tb_217.pdf
Of course, we do have state of the art pressure washing equipment as well for houses, pool enclosures, decks, driveways etc. In fact, with our many years of experience, we have found that a pressure washer that puts out a larger flow of water [5.6 GPM] and less actual pressure 2000 - 2500 psi, gets the job done better than a higher blasting pressure [3000 to 4000 lbs is common] and lower water flow [4 GPM] or less. On occasion, very high pressure is needed, such as on some concrete and steel surfaces, so we also have a 3500 psi machine with us at all times to use as needed.
Another reason to hire us to clean your roof is:
WE COVER ALL OF YOUR PLANTS WITH TARPS, PERIOD AND/OR WATER THEM CONSTANTLY THROUGHOUT THE JOB. That's as "PLANT FRIENDLY" as it gets in this business! Because this offers the maximum protection! Then we also water plants too tall to cover and any areas we feel extra watering would benefit.
We will also, without charge, on most roofs, repair and realign cracked and slipped out tiles. { There is a reasonable limit to how many we will do for free.
My son has worked continuously with me since 1994 and is a licensed professional along with myself.
So, if you have a Black Algae on your Roof that needs removing, whether for:
#1. Health reasons [Those who suffer respiratory ailments are adversely affected by the airborne mold spores] #2. To stop the deterioration of the roof [ algae eats constantly] #3. Astetics [ many beautiful homes have their appearance spoiled by black, discolored roofs] #4. Because your homeowners association requires it.
Give us a call! You will be glad you did and your neighbors may thank you!
