When to Clean a Cedar Roof?
Perhaps the best reason to clean your cedar roof is so it can last the intended lifespan of 30-60 years.
Cedar shake and cedar shingles are typically 4 times the cost of ordinary asphalt shingles. In our experience, most homeowners aren’t aware of high replacement costs of cedar until it is too late. Once this happens, it’s common to replace cedar with ordinary asphalt shingles because of the high-cost difference and resistance from insurance carriers regarding roof damage claims.
Cedar is very resistant to insects and handle wind conditions extremely well if installed properly. However, Cedar is more susceptible to water retention from rain and shade coverage, which in turn cause mildew, mold, and rotting. Tree sap and debris from overhanging trees also encourage bacteria growth which shortens the life of the cedar considerably.
If you see mildew, mold or other organic material growing on your cedar roof, it’s time to get it cleaned. The safest, most effective, and long-lasting method is SoftWash low-pressure power washing.
How Do You Clean a Cedar Roof?
Cedar shake and cedar shingle roofs are typically NOT walked on because of splitting, cracking or being dislodged. However, there are special shoes for cedar roof walking, but using those depends on the condition of the cedar. Right Way cedar roof treatment is done by ladder access typically along the gutter level, specialized extension pole, chicken ladder, or by using an articulating boom.
How Often Should You Clean Your Cedar Shake or Cedar Shingle Roof?
Cedar roof cleanings range between 5-10 years, but every roof has its own unique challenges such as slope, shading, debris, existing damage, etc. which can impact the cleaning schedule.
