Yes, flashing separation is very common here due to our seasonal temperature swings and wind. We fix it by carefully removing the compromised flashing, inspecting the underlying deck for water damage, and installing new, high-quality flashing sealed with durable, weather-resistant caulking to create a watertight barrier that will last.

Those streaks are Gloeocapsa magma algae, which thrives in La Grange's humid climate. We use a specialized, low-pressure soft wash system with a biodegradable cleaning solution. This method safely eliminates the algae and organic stains without the high pressure that can damage shingle granules, effectively restoring your roof's appearance.

We apply a preventative zinc or copper-based treatment after cleaning. These strips or solutions create a protective barrier that inhibits new algae growth for years. We also recommend keeping nearby tree branches trimmed to reduce shade and moisture retention on the roof, which are prime conditions for algae in our local environment.
