Why Roof Cleaning Matters: Expert Tips from AdelCo Home Services

Your roof is more than just a shield from the elements — it’s one of the most important (and expensive) parts of your home. But many homeowners in Metro Vancouver, Fraser Valley, and the Tri-Cities overlook one critical part of roof maintenance: regular roof cleaning.
At AdelCo Home Services, we’ve seen firsthand how routine roof cleaning can extend a roof’s life, improve curb appeal, and even lower energy costs. Here’s what every homeowner should know.
What Is Roof Cleaning?
Roof cleaning is the process of removing algae, moss, lichen, debris, and other buildup from your roof’s surface. In BC’s damp climate, moss and algae can grow rapidly — not only making your roof look dirty but also damaging your shingles and underlying structure over time.
Why You Shouldn’t Ignore It
Prevents Costly Repairs
Moss and algae hold moisture against your shingles, which can lead to rot, leaks, and even structural damage. A clean roof helps prevent long-term wear and tear.Extends Roof Life
Your roof is a major investment. Regular cleaning can add years of life to it by removing elements that accelerate deterioration.Improves Curb Appeal
A dirty, moss-covered roof can drag down your home's appearance. Professional cleaning restores its look and adds instant value — especially important if you're thinking of selling.Protects Your Family’s Health
Mold and mildew from roof buildup can make their way into your attic and indoor air, triggering allergies or respiratory issues. Cleaning your roof helps maintain a healthy home environment.
