    In Edmonton, nature is king. Alberta might be associated with the great outdoors but while residents are exploring these spaces, nature is creeping in a little closer to home. Moss coverings on trees can be very beautiful but having it spread across your property is another story all together. Lucky for you, our Edmonton roof cleaning and moss removal is only one call away. Regular treatments are able to extend the life span of your roof, all while improving curb appeal.

    The Danger of Roof Moss & Clutter

    Alberta is known for a harsh climate. Definitive seasons, full of snow, frost and rainfall put your roof through a lot. Every roof is designed to lead water out and away from sensitive areas but what about clutter? Heavy wind and rain dislodge organics from surrounding trees and plant life and, with nowhere else to go, these items collect on rooftops. This debris can be large, like a branch or small, like pine needles. This clutter leaves roofs looking awful but it also traps moisture against surfaces. Organic foundations and access to moisture paves the way for roof moss to grow and thrive. This invasive growth climbs over the surface of your roof, spreading underneath shingles and pulling them free from the roof itself. These openings allow sitting moisture to move into the structural component of your property.

    Local moss removal services understand the importance of the condition of your roof. If left to sit over long time periods, moss thickens and grows, wearing down materials such as asphalt shingles. Fixing or replacing materials is part of being a property owner but professional roof care can delay this process, giving you the full life-expectancy of your roof. Depending on the materials used in your roofs construction, you can expect anywhere from 15 to 30 years on average but without proper maintenance, this number can be significantly less.

    Our Gorillas have been thoroughly trained to not only perform your roof cleaning services and  kill moss, but to spot problem areas, and taking photos in order to discuss these potential issues with our clients. Book your appointments online or by phone with one of our highly-trained Gorillas.

    Common questions

    Roof Cleaning — answered

    Will your cleaning affect my well water?

    No. Properly applied roof chemistry does not reach groundwater at meaningful levels, because it is diluted, breaks down quickly, and stays at the surface. On properties with shallow water tables, our crews add extra rinse protocols as a further precaution around the well.

    Will the chemistry damage my shrubs?

    No, properly diluted chemistry with rinse protocols is safe for shrubs. Crews pre-rinse plants before cleaning and post-rinse afterward, which dilutes any residue that reaches them. Direct concentrated application can stress sensitive species, so the rinse routine is what keeps shrubs protected.

    Will the chemistry damage my deck?

    The safeguard for decks isn’t avoiding chemistry, it’s bracketing it with water. We saturate the deck before any roof solution is applied, so diluted runoff can’t soak into dry wood, then rinse it again once the roof work is done. Properly handled, the deck is unaffected.

    What are zinc strips?

    A zinc strip is a preventive measure, not a cleaner. Mounted at the ridge, it leaches small amounts of zinc each time it rains, and that runoff suppresses moss and algae downhill of it. It works passively, but only on the surface rainwater carries it across.

    Can you clean roofs after wildfire smoke?

    Wildfire smoke is not ordinary dirt. The residue is fine and oily, so it needs specific chemistry rather than a plain wash to remove without smearing it across the roof. Because severity varies widely, each job is quoted by the area and condition.

    Why is pressure washing bad for roofs?

    In Edmonton, pressure washing is one of the most common causes of premature roof replacement. The force strips granules, cracks tile, and damages flashing, aging the roof years faster than it should. The damage often is not obvious until it is costly.

    How will I know if you found roof problems?

    On Edmonton roofs, any problem our crews find is itemized in the service report with a photo of the spot. Moss intrusion, cracked shingles, or worn flashing all get noted, with recommendations so nothing comes as a surprise.

    Do you offer ongoing roof inspection?

    Yes, and pairing it with cleaning makes the most sense. Since the roof is clear and crews are already on it, an annual inspection adds little time but a lot of value, flagging small problems while they are cheap to fix rather than after a leak appears.

    Can you clean my roof if my pets are outside?

    We ask that pets stay indoors while we work. Our crews are pet-aware, but soft-wash roof chemistry is not appropriate for direct contact, and runoff or overspray can reach the yard. Keeping animals inside until the treated areas have rinsed and dried keeps them safe.
