Those black streaks are likely gloeocapsa magma, a type of algae common in our area due to humidity. While DIY cleaning is possible, improper methods can damage shingles. We use professional, low-pressure cleaning solutions specifically formulated to safely eliminate algae and include a zinc or copper-based treatment at the ridge to inhibit future growth, protecting your roof's appearance and lifespan.

Corrosion is a frequent issue here due to temperature fluctuations, moisture, and salt from winter road treatments. We inspect your flashing for pitting and weakness. Our solution involves removing the corroded material and installing new, high-quality flashing—often using more durable metals or coated options—and ensuring it's properly sealed and integrated with your roof system to prevent leaks and future corrosion.

It depends on the extent of the corrosion. During our inspection, we assess whether the damage is localized or widespread. For minor, isolated corrosion, a skilled repair and resealing might be sufficient. However, if the corrosion is advanced or widespread, a full section replacement is more reliable and cost-effective in the long run to ensure a watertight seal. We'll always explain the best option for your specific situation.
