Removing moss from a roof in Vancouver requires a specialized approach due to our unique wet climate, where annual rainfall often exceeds 1,200 mm. To protect your home’s structural integrity, we follow a professional process that avoids damaging your shingles or voiding manufacturer warranties.
Our professional removal methods include:
- Comprehensive Inspection: We begin with a complimentary assessment to evaluate moss severity and check for underlying issues like shingle damage or rot.
- Manual Scraping and Low-Pressure Washing: We manually clear moss and use gentle, low-pressure cleaning techniques. This ensures the moss is removed without the harsh force that can strip away protective granules.
- Drainage Clearing: We ensure gutters and downspouts are clear, as clogged drainage traps the moisture moss needs to thrive.
- Preventative Treatments: To stop moss from returning, we recommend installing zinc or copper strips along the ridge and maintaining proper roof ventilation.
Because Vancouver and Surrey are high-severity areas for moss growth, swift action is essential to prevent water infiltration. We provide transparent estimates and serve communities across the Lower Mainland, from Richmond to Abbotsford.
