Moss Removal
Protocol.
Manual removal to maintain shingle integrity. We hand-brush the moss and treat the roots to prevent regrowth for 6-9 months.
The Lifecycle of Roof Moss
Moss doesn't just sit on your roof; it actively consumes it. Here is exactly what happens when you ignore the green fuzz.
1. Spore Colonization
Airborne spores land on your shaded shingles. Fueled by Washington rain, they anchor microscopic roots directly into the asphalt granules.
2. Shingle Separation
As the moss thickens, the rhizome roots physically lift the edges of your composite shingles, breaking the critical watertight seal.
3. Internal Water Rot
Trapped rainwater is driven under the lifted shingles by coastal winds, rotting the underlying plywood decking and causing attic leaks.
The Process
We hand brush off the moss to maintain the integrity of the shingles and not compromise the roof.
Moss Treatment is applied at the roof ridges and will spread throughout over time. This treatment takes 3-5 weeks to kill any active moss and prevents growth for up to 6 months thereafter".
This process provides maximum penetration of the root systems to minimize future moss growth, extending the life of your roof.

If the moss on the roof is too deep-rooted to be removed by hand brush without causing roof damage, we will remove as much moss as possible and apply extra moss treatment to kill the rest.
Dead moss may remain on the roof or be washed away by rainy weather. If you’d like to have the dead moss removed, we can schedule another Moss Removal service at least 6 weeks out from the original service date which allows enough time for the moss to die.

We discard debris in the following fashions:
