Questions and Answers
How does moss on my Shamokin roof cause damage, and how do you fix it?
Moss holds moisture against your roof shingles, which can lead to premature rotting, granule loss, and leaks, especially in our area's humid climate. At Searls Ed Contracting, we perform a professional roof cleaning using safe, effective methods to remove the moss without damaging your shingles. We can then apply preventive treatments and recommend solutions like installing zinc strips to inhibit future growth, protecting your investment.
My gutters overflow every time it rains hard in Shamokin. What's the best solution?
Frequent gutter overflow is a common sign of clogs, improper pitch, or undersized gutters for our region's heavy downpours. Our expert team will inspect your system, clear any blockages from debris, and ensure it's pitched correctly for optimal flow. If needed, we can install larger-capacity gutters or add more downspouts to handle Shamokin's stormwater volume, effectively solving the overflow problem and protecting your home's foundation and siding.
Can you handle both the moss on my roof and my clogged gutters in one service visit?
Absolutely. We often find these two issues are connected, as moss debris can wash into and clog gutters. For our Shamokin neighbors, we offer combined service visits to efficiently address the whole system. We'll safely clean the roof surface to remove moss, then thoroughly clean and inspect all gutters and downspouts to ensure everything is functioning properly. This comprehensive approach saves you time and provides complete protection for your home.
