Roof Cleaning – Selecting A Contractor – Top Items – #Soft Washing

 

 

Roof Cleaning, when done correctly, provides immediate benefits to residential buildings, including remarkably improving the building’s appearance and making the roof last longer.

You should carefully consider what cleaning methods you use when cleaning your roof because failure to clean it properly will result in damage.

Here are the Top Items to consider when selecting a roof cleaning contractor:

    1. Methods to be used – Soft Washing is the safest and most effective method.
    2. Chemistry – What products are they going to use ? Check out this project that went sideways because they used “Tide Laundry Detergent”  https://www.macleans.ca/news/tide-roof-moss-abbotsford-bc/
    3. Health and Safety – Company culture is important
    4. Track Record – Have they successfully completed Roof Cleaning Projects
    5. Site Management – Roof cleaning is done at height and a complete site specific fall protection plan needs to be in place

We hope these items help also please check out below for some more resources. If you have a building that needs some roof cleaning please reach out and your account manager can swing by and start the process.
