Those black streaks are typically algae growth, often Gloeocapsa magma, which thrives in our warm, humid Florida climate. It's not just cosmetic; it can retain moisture and degrade roofing materials over time. Yes, we can fix it. We use specialized, low-pressure cleaning solutions that safely eliminate the algae without damaging your shingles, restoring your roof's appearance and health.

Finding some granules, especially after a new roof installation, is normal. However, excessive granule loss is a serious sign of advanced shingle wear, often accelerated by our intense South Florida sun and storms. Those granules protect the asphalt from UV rays. We recommend a professional inspection to assess the extent of the loss and determine if repairs or a replacement are needed to prevent leaks and further damage.

For our specific climate, we recommend impact-resistant shingles rated for high winds and algae-resistant shingles. Algae-resistant shingles have copper or zinc granules that inhibit stain-causing growth, a common issue here. Impact-resistant options better withstand hail and debris from storms. During a consultation, we can review all durable material options that offer the best long-term protection and value for your home.
