Algae Removal Services Fayetteville NC
The green algae and mildew found growing on homes throughout Fayetteville can actually begin to deteriorate the surface it's growing on if not removed in a timely manner. It can sometimes be very difficult to remove (especially if it's been left for a long time) and makes your home look very dirty. This unsightly algae growth is especially prevalent in areas where there is lots of moisture, little sunlight or sometimes, just enough sunlight to encourage it's growth.
Think about the morning dew on your siding… Are there areas that are shaded for a good part of the day? These areas are likely to develop algae growth first because the conditions are just right. Exterior walls on the north facing side of your property are also usually where the algae and mildew will begin to form first.
Another factor for algae growth around the exterior of your building is from the naturally occurring sugars that are commonly found in tree sap. If there are large trees or bushes near your house then you've likely noticed the algae seems to build up in those areas the most. It's not a coincidence, it's just science!
Algae and mildew growth can actually damage and deteriorate surfaces made of wood, vinyl and even metal. They can permanently "etch" the surface.
It's not something that happens instantly, but over many years of neglect the algae can eat away at the outer layers and after a good power washing, while the algae is removed it often exposes the damage they have done to the siding material in the form of etched, dull and failing surfaces. If you stay on top of it and don't let the algae build up over a period of many years then you can mitigate the damage.

Algae On Your Roof?
Please Remember ANY type of pressure on your roofing material isn't a very good idea and can void your warranty and drastically reduce the lifespan of your shingles. We all know that rain and hail can come down fierce and hard when pounded by the wind but it's no match for the concentrated jets of water from a power washing machine, especially with inexperienced hands operating it. You can literally destroy an entire section of your roof in just a few quick seconds. Stop anyone who is about to use a power washer on your roof and call a professional.
