Have you cleaned your roof recently? Did you know that you should get it cleaned on a regular basis? A roof that hasn't been cleaned can have small problems that end up being a bigger problem and require getting a whole new roof. If you can't think of why a roof should be cleaned, Dunrite Roofing would like to share their experience and knowledge why you should clean yours.
Whether you have an investment property that you need to rent or trying to sell your home, a clean roof will make the property look good all over. First impressions are everything and a clean roof will give your prospective buyer or tenant a good first impression. This can often make the difference in a sale by getting the price you want.
The dirt, grim, leaves, limbs and moss that build up over time on a roof will just sit there and rot. That rot sitting there will eventually start affecting the shingles on your roof. By giving your roof a good cleaning yourself or hire a professional, you could probably prolong the life of your roof another 10 years more than the manufacturer warranties.
