Jr & Sr's Home Repair | Roofing Services in Harrisburg, PA 17112

Harrisburg's humid summers and seasonal temperature fluctuations create the perfect environment for moss growth on north-facing or shaded roofs. This moisture retention, combined with freeze-thaw cycles, also causes asphalt shingles to dry out, become brittle, and curl at the edges. Left unaddressed, these issues can lead to leaks and significant roof damage.

We start with a safe, professional cleaning to remove all moss and debris. Crucially, we don't just power wash, as that can damage shingles. We then apply a treatment to inhibit future moss growth. Finally, we inspect for any underlying moisture damage the moss may have caused and make necessary repairs to your roof's structure or shingles.

It depends on the extent of the damage. For isolated curling, we can often secure or replace individual shingles. However, widespread curling across the roof surface is a sign of aging and weathering, indicating that a roof replacement may be the most cost-effective and reliable long-term solution to protect your Harrisburg home.
