Q: How often do solar panels need to be cleaned?

• <div><p>You should clean your panels at least twice a year. It depends on your location. In dusty climates (think the Arizona desert), you may need to clean your panels more frequently. Dust can dramatically impact the electrical output. If you live in a climate with extreme weather, you may want to check your panels seasonally.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of roof cleaning?

• <div><p>Roof cleaning services provide a slew of benefits, the most significant of which is improved curb appeal. Roof cleaning can make a dirty and neglected roof look new again, potentially saving you from replacing your roof to improve its appearance. Roof cleaning will also remove algae and moss, the latter of which can eventually lead to roof leaks from trapped moisture and lifted shingles. In the long run, roof cleaning can prolong the useful life of your roof and prevent property damage, making it a great investment.</p></div>

Q: How much maintenance do tile roofs need?

• <div><p>Clay tile roofs require minimal maintenance, as they stand up very well to the elements and often won&rsquo;t fade in direct sunlight. They also don&rsquo;t need sealing. Concrete tiles are also relatively low maintenance, but you will need more maintenance than with clay. You&rsquo;ll need to seal concrete every few years to improve water resistance, and the color will fade a bit more quickly than with clay.</p></div>

Q: What time of year do you remove algae from a roof?

• <div><p>Ideally, you will tackle removing algae from your roof during spring or summer when the weather is drier and warmer. Because algae tends to grow during the colder and wetter months, you want to tackle this project before the temperature drops to hopefully keep it from coming back at all.</p></div>

Everything went well. They did painting on the balcony. Brushed off degree and some old paint. They put 2 coats of gray deck paint. Makes it easy and smooth to sweep and mop the balcony. I have left over paint to put 2 more coats. I would use them again.
