    Researching property maintenance services is not a favourite pass-time for most Canadians. If you find yourself searching for roof tips, chances are that you are in need of our Medicine Hat roof cleaning and moss removal. Whether it is standard issue clutter or getting rid of moss, our Gorillas can get the job done.

    A Keen Eye & A Clear View

    When it comes to your roof, it can be difficult to properly assess their condition, when you can’t see its surface. That is why it is so important to remove clutter. Leaves, sticks and other debris can take up a lot of visual real estate and prevent your from seeing what is happening underneath. What could possibly be happening on your roof, you ask? Moss! Moss happens!
    Getting rid of roof clutter is more than moving it from one place to another. Your Medicine Hat roof clearing and moss removal includes not only a cleaning service but help with disposal as well. You never have to worry about junk simply being moved from your roof to your yard and left there. Once the surface of your roof is clear, it is time for assessment and treatment.

    Medicine Hat Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal: Keeping You Involved

    Knowing what is happening on your roof can be difficult without getting up there yourself. This can be a problem for both personal and safety reasons. If you are not eager to make the climb yourself, our Gorillas can put your concerns to bed. Each of our technicians comes equipped with smart phone that enable them to take before and after photos, keeping you involved every step of the way.
    If moss is found on your property, there are particular treatment methods that you should enlist and avoid. For example, tackling a growing moss problem with a hard wire brush can do more damage than good. Moss retains moisture, growing and creeping under shingles and even toward the decking. This can lead to unnecessary wear and tear on the structural makeup of your space.

    When you want your roof cleared of clutter and your moss handled right, our Medicine Hat roof cleaning and moss removal is only a phone call away!

    Common questions

    Roof Cleaning — answered

    Why do shaded sections of my roof have algae?

    Shaded roof sections grow algae for the same reason as north slopes: less sun means they hold moisture longer, and algae thrives on damp surfaces. Overhanging tree canopy is the main contributor, both casting shade and dropping organic debris that feeds growth.

    How long does roof cleaning take?

    For a typical Medicine Hat home, roof cleaning usually takes 2 to 4 hours. Larger or steeper roofs with more complex layouts can run longer, since access and surface area drive the timeline. We confirm an estimate when we assess the property.

    How can I extend the time between cleanings?

    The single biggest factor is shade and moisture. A roof that stays damp under heavy tree cover grows moss fastest, so opening the canopy and improving airflow buys the most time. Metal ridge strips help by releasing trace ions that suppress regrowth when it rains.

    Is the chemistry safe?

    Yes, at controlled dilution and with proper application. We pre-rinse landscaping before we start, rinse down runoff areas afterward, and the solution naturally breaks down within days rather than lingering. Handled this way, it cleans the roof effectively while protecting plants and surroundings.

    Will you provide a service report?

    The report is more than a receipt. Its photos and findings give you a documented record of the roof’s condition, useful for insurance, a future sale, or simply tracking how fast moss returns between cleanings. Emailed after every visit.

    What causes black streaks on roofs?

    Black streaks are caused by algae growth, specifically Gloeocapsa magma, which feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles. The streaks are most common in damp climates and on shaded sections of the roof where moisture lingers and the algae can establish itself.

    Can you clean rubber roofs?

    Yes, rubber EPDM commercial flat roofs clean with an appropriate technique suited to single-ply membranes. This is specialty work rather than standard residential cleaning, using low-pressure methods that lift contamination and growth without harming the membrane or its seams.

    Will the chemistry smell?

    Yes, but it is mild and temporary. The chlorine odour comes from the sodium hypochlorite working on the growth and is strongest during application, fading within hours as surfaces dry. There is no lingering smell once the roof has dried out.

    Are your crews certified?

    Yes. Our crews are trained on safety protocols, proper chemistry handling, and roof-type assessment before they work on your home. The training follows industry-standard certification programs, so the people on your roof understand both the cleaning method and how to do it safely.
