A roof is one of the most distinguishable features of a building, and can heavily influence its style and overall appearance. Aside from maintaining its look, roof cleaning serves to maintain its functions, so that you get the most out of your roof, and avoid future damage. Additionally, there are many things that are not recognized as debris that can be harmful to your roof, such as moss - moss contains a large amount of water and moisture which can spread to the cement work of your roof, and cause lasting damage to ridge tiles and valleys.
There are many different kinds of debris, dirt and flora that can influence the state of your roof, uncluding rain/hail, moss/algae, leaves and wind-swept debris. The most affected parts of a roof from dirt and debris are usually the gutters and shingles, yet if ignored for too long, other parts can also be affected and become damaged.

Tiles and shingles are the most exterior part of a roof, and therefore, the most exposed to nature’s damaging effects.
