Keeping your house clean is a never-ending job. So, it\u2019s not surprising that maintaining the roof is not foremost on your mind. The general rule applies – <\/span>Out of sight, out of mind.\u201d <\/i><\/b>Most people only think about the roof when there is a leak or damage, but if you want to extend its life, it\u2019s essential to keep it clean and well-maintained.<\/span><\/p>

Pressure washing your roof has recently become a popular option. It is fast, efficient, and more affordable. However, before you decide to go this route, here are three things you should consider.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Is Pressure Washing Right For Your Home?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Pressure washing uses powerful water jets to blast away any dirt from the roof. Before you decide, make sure that your roof is strong enough to stand up to that kind of force. While roofing materials are designed to <\/span>withstand the pressures<\/span><\/a> of rain and wind, the power from an intensely concentrated stream of water could cause damage or even loosen tiles. In the end, you may find you\u2019ve done more harm than good.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Consider Soft Pressure<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

If you decide to use a pressure washer, consider using the soft or low-pressure method. This method streams the water at a lower pressure to reduce the risk of damage to the roof. You can flush away much of the dirt and debris accumulated and still have a clean roof with the proper cleaning solution.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t

Use the Right Angle<\/h3>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

When using the pressure washer, make sure that you always aim the stream down onto the roof. This practice will prevent the chance of forcing jets of water underneath the tiles and loosening them, which could lead to further problems later.<\/span><\/p>

Cleaning a roof can be a tough job, and the risk of damage is extremely high. If you\u2019re not experienced in handling a pressure washer or unsure if your roof can hold up to it, you should consider seeking <\/span>professional help<\/span><\/a>. Professionals also have access to more robust cleaning solutions and equipment to get the job done the right way without causing any damage.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
