In Milford's climate, those black streaks are likely Gloeocapsa magma algae. The most effective method is a professional soft wash with a specialized, biodegradable cleaner. We avoid high-pressure washing, which can damage shingles. This treatment safely eliminates the algae and includes a zinc or copper strip installation at the roof's peak to prevent future growth, keeping your roof looking clean and functioning properly.

Yes, skylight leaks are frequent in our area due to temperature swings and heavy precipitation, which can degrade seals and flashings. Our repair process starts with a thorough inspection to pinpoint the failure—often the flashing or sealant. We then carefully remove the compromised materials, install new, weather-resistant flashing integrated with your roof system, and apply high-grade sealants. This precise approach ensures a watertight seal that withstands Milford's seasons.

We schedule work carefully around Milford's weather. Algae cleaning is best in mild, dry conditions, typically late spring through early fall. Emergency leak repairs, like for a skylight, are addressed as soon as safely possible, often with temporary measures in winter if a full repair must wait for warmer, drier weather. We always prioritize safety and the longevity of the repair, and will provide a clear timeline during our assessment.
