Protecting Your Investment: Why Professional Moss Removal Services Are Essential for Your Home


Moss growing on the roof is a common sight in the temperate rainforest climate of Victoria. Should you leave it up there or have it cleaned? Should you do it yourself or hire a professional? This blog will provide insight into what you should do if there’s moss growing on your roof.


Why You Should Remove Moss from Your Home


If you have moss growing on your roof, you might be content to just leave it there. After all, it’s green and looks nice – what harm could it do?

 

Moss growing on your roof can cause a lot more damage than you might initially think. It doesn’t degrade the materials, but rather, it can lift the shingles up, which allows water to seep in through the new gaps.

 

Additionally, moss is very good at retaining moisture. Do you know what else comes along with moisture? Mould, rot, and decay – things you do not want to be associated with your roof.

 

All in all, having moss growing on your roof can greatly reduce its lifespan and cost you a lot of money in repairs or replacements.

 

Benefits of Calling a Professional


Getting up on your roof and removing the moss yourself sounds like an easy job, but you should call a professional instead. Hiring a professional for moss removal offers several benefits over DIY, such as:


Safety


As previously mentioned, moss retains moisture, which makes it quite slippery. Cleaning your roof yourself can be quite dangerous in these circumstances. A professional will have all the necessary safety tools and equipment for moss removal in Victoria.


Expertise


A professional service will be able to choose the correct method of moss removal. Different methods of removal are appropriate for different types of roofs and materials. There is also a delicate balance between removing moss and damaging your shingles. If you don’t have the know-how, you can cause further damage to your roof, which means you’re spending money on repairs anyway.


Efficiency


A professional moss removal service has the experience necessary to get the job done more quickly and more effectively. Doing it yourself, you might not be able to work as quickly as a professional. You may also not do the job quite as thoroughly, leaving pieces of moss that can quickly grow back and recolonize your roof. A professional moss removal service saves you time and ensures the moss has been thoroughly removed and won’t come back immediately.

Other Services


Many professional moss removal services will also offer additional services, such as roof inspections and gutter cleaning. This means they may be able to address multiple maintenance needs in one go.
