Is Moss Growth Bad For My Home?
Moss can severely damage the structural integrity of any type roof. Moss is a simple plant that does not produce flowers and grows in blankets in natural environments. You commonly see moss covering trees or in a landscape of a forest canopy, which can be beautiful depending on the circumstances. However, moss growing on your roof top is not considered lovely and should be deemed as a nemesis to your roof.
“Their thorough power washing of our heavily moss-covered roof, cleaning of our gutters, and careful attention to detail were professional throughout”
Moss commonly thrives in environments that are damp and shaded. Moss absorbs the moisture from the damp environment and establishes roots on your roof causing the beginning of roof degradation. The roots can lift up shingles and constant moisture can lead to bacteria and mold growth. This eventually can lead to holes in your roof and leaks into your home. It is also dangerous to walk on a moss covered roof because it makes surfaces very slippery when wet. It’s very important to monitor for moss growth and treat as needed.
