How Often Should I Clean My Roof?
The best practice for homeowners is to have their roofs professionally cleaned each year. Regular cleaning helps maintain the roof's appearance and functionality, preventing the build-up of debris, moss, and algae, which can cause long-term damage.
Melbourne homeowners typically get their roofs professionally cleaned and inspected for leaks at least once every 1-2 years, depending on whether you have a metal or terracotta tile roof. This schedule is often sufficient to address potential issues and keep the roof in good condition.
What Happens If You Don't Clean Your Roof?
Neglecting regular roof cleaning can lead to a variety of problems that go beyond mere aesthetics. Over time, roofs accumulate dirt, black mould, lichen, moss, and algae. These unwanted elements not only make your roof look unattractive but can also cause significant damage.
Structural Damage
Moss and lichen can grow in your roof's small crevices and gaps, causing tile deterioration. This compromises the structural integrity of your roof and can lead to leaks and water damage inside your home. Algae and mould can also deteriorate roofing materials, reducing their lifespan.
Reduced Lifespan
Moss, lichen, and algae can trap moisture against your roof, accelerating wear and tear. This constant exposure to moisture can lead to rot and weaken the roof's structure, ultimately reducing its lifespan.
Increased Energy Costs
A dirty roof can affect your home's energy efficiency. The growth of algae and moss can make your roof darker, absorbing more heat from the sun. This can increase the temperature inside your home, leading to higher cooling costs during warmer months.
Health Hazards
Mould and algae growth on your roof can pose health risks to you and your family. Spores from these organisms can become airborne and enter your home, potentially causing respiratory issues and allergic reactions.
Decreased Property Value
An unclean and deteriorated roof can significantly reduce your property's curb appeal and market value. Potential buyers may view a dirty roof as a sign of neglect, raising concerns about the home's overall maintenance.
Pest Infestation
A roof covered in debris and organic matter can attract pests such as insects, birds, and rodents. These pests can damage the roof further and find their way into your home, creating additional problems.
What Causes Roof Lichen & Dirt build-up on Homes?
Environmental elements such as rain, wind, and organic growth are the primary culprits. Black mould and lichen thrive in moist conditions. At the same time, dirt and debris accumulate from your surroundings due to seasonal changes. Over time, these elements create a thick layer of growth on your roof, blocking water channels, leading to poor water flow from the roof and can cause leaks into your home.
Build-up can lead to severe roof damage if left unaddressed. The worst-case scenario can result in roof leaks, structural deterioration, and even the need for a complete roof replacement. Such extensive damage can be costly and disruptive to your daily life.
