GOT ROOF STREAKS?

If you are a homeowner then you know how important preventative maintenance can be when it comes to keeping costs down.  If you own a home with an asphalt shingle roof you may have noticed that after a few years "black streaks" start to form.  If untreated those "streaks" eventually multiply until the entire roof appears to be much darker
The black streaks are a mold/algae called Gleocapsa Magma.  They feed off the roof shingle and are usually most prominent on the North side of the roof where there is less sunlight and more dampness.  The growth of the algae can cause damage and reduce the lifespan of the roof.  In addition it can increase the cost of cooling your home in the summer months.  There are tons of in-depth articles on the internet that one can read and become well-versed on this subject. The most important point is, once you see the streaks,  the mold has already been living in your roof surface for a while and it is time to have it professionally removed.
