    When it comes to your roof, Canadian homeowners have enough issues to deal with at ground level. Why not let us handle your Sudbury roof cleaning and moss removal?

    The roof of homes or businesses are often overlooked simply because it is out of view. If you are one of these property owners – don’t worry, it is never too late.

    No one could blame Surrey residents for being pre-occupied with tasks outside of the home. With so many cultural activities happening in the city and surrounding area, there aren’t enough hours in the day! Routine maintenance on your home can save you time (and money) on the long run!

    Consistent levels of moisture and humidity throughout the year in Sudbury makes it the perfect place for plant life to grow. Most notably on the roofs of properties is the moss than can attach itself to surfaces and shingles.

    Sudbury Roof Cleaning and Moss Removal: Protecting Your Property

    Once moss takes hold on shingles it will continue to spread, growing across the roof of your property and doing damage in the process. Shingles can be deteriorated or pulled up as the moss makes its way around and under these materials. This process leaves pieces of your roof exposed to the outside elements and can even lead to leaks inside your home.

    Without proper roof cleaning and moss removal, organic debris falls from surrounding areas and rests on top of your property. These items break down in the humidity and begin to rot, right over your head! Without anywhere else to go, leaves, sticks, and needles will more than likely stay put or find their way into your gutter system, causing a host of other issues.

    Beginning a routine of twice a year maintenance with Sudbury roof cleaning and moss removal limits the amount of damage that your roof suffers from and prolongs the life of the most important defensive weapon your home has against the elements.

    Our Gorillas will do the work so you can enjoy Sudbury’s many festivals, museums and galleries. We will make the most out of your home so you can make the most of your hometown.

    Common questions

    Roof Cleaning — answered

    Why is moss growth common on rooftops in Northern Ontario?

    The region experiences extended periods of moisture, high humidity, and long winters, which create an ideal breeding ground for moss, algae, and lichen. Shaded roof sections, especially north-facing sides or areas beneath overhanging tree branches, retain dampness longer, accelerating organic growth that can compromise shingles.

    How does moss damage asphalt shingles?

    Moss acts like a sponge, trapping water against the surface of your roof. As the moisture freezes and thaws, the roots expand and lift or crack the shingles. This process degrades the protective asphalt granules, shortens the lifespan of the material by up to 40%, and eventually leads to rot and structural leaks.

    What is the safest method for removing moss from a roof?

    The safest approach is a non-abrasive manual removal of large patches combined with a low-pressure chemical treatment, often referred to as soft washing. This method eliminates the invasive growth and treats the remaining microscopic spores without eroding the shingle granules or breaking the structural seals of the roof.

    Can you use a pressure washer to clean an asphalt shingle roof?

    No, you should never use a high-pressure washer on asphalt shingles. The intense force of the water strips away the protective mineral granules, weakens the adhesive tabs, and can force water underneath the shingles, causing immediate background leaks and premature roof failure.

    Are the cleaning solutions used safe for landscaping and pets?

    Professional exterior cleaning utilizes eco-friendly, biodegradable solutions that target organic growth like moss and algae while remaining safe for surrounding environments. Technicians pre-wet nearby plants and rinse the area thoroughly during the process to ensure the protection of your landscaping, pets, and property.

    How often should a roof be inspected and cleaned?

    It is best practice to have your roof inspected and cleared of debris twice a year, typically in the spring and autumn. Regular maintenance ensures that fallen leaves, needles, and branches are removed before they can rot and create the damp conditions necessary for moss spores to take root.

    Do technicians use proper safety gear while working on steep slopes?

    Safety is a primary priority for professional crews. Every technician is fully trained in fall-arrest protocols and wears certified safety harnesses and tie-offs before stepping onto a rooftop. Companies carry full liability insurance and local workers’ compensation coverage to protect both the staff and your property.

    Does removing debris from the roof help the gutter system?

    Yes, clearing organic debris, branches, and needles from the peaks and valleys prevents that material from washing down into your eavestroughs. Keeping the roof surface clean prevents severe gutter blockages, downspout clogs, and basement flooding caused by water overflowing the edge of the house.

    Will professional roof cleaning improve home resale value?

    Curb appeal has a direct impact on property value and buyer first impressions. Home inspectors routinely flag heavy moss and algae growth as a liability or a sign of neglect. A clean, well-maintained rooftop reassures prospective buyers that the home envelope is secure and well-cared for.

    How can I get an accurate cost estimate for my property?

    Quotes are completely free and are calculated based on three specific factors: the total square footage of the roof surface, the pitch or steepness of the slope, and the overall density of the debris or moss buildup. Estimates can be requested online or over the phone, and local crews typically follow up within the same business day.
