Q: Can you clean algae off a metal roof?

• <div><p>It may require stronger cleansers or chemicals, higher-pressure spray, or scrubbing to completely remove algae from a metal roof. Start with a mild cleanser; if that doesn&rsquo;t work and you're comfortable doing so, use a stronger mix of ⅓ cup of laundry detergent, 1 quart of bleach, and 3 quarts of water to gently scrub the algae with a soft-bristled brush. If algae is present across large portions of your roof, doesn&rsquo;t come off with gentle scrubbing and cleansers, or is in hard-to-reach areas, this may be a job better left to a pro.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if wet paint drips on my roof?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-steps-painting-your-homes-exterior.htm">painting your home</a> or monitoring a job as it&rsquo;s being completed, squash the issue ASAP if you notice paint is getting onto the roof. Keeping it clean is one of the keys to extending your roof&rsquo;s life.</p><p>Removing latex paint before it dries is much easier and lowers the risk of damaging your shingles (more on that below). Simply spray the spot with a hose for one to two minutes to clear away the drying paint. In general, this is a good way to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-roof-cleaning-methods-ugly-stains.htm">remove ugly stains from your roof</a> without using chemicals.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance does flat roofing require?

• <div><p>Inspect for debris, clean drains, and regularly check for punctures or cracks to maintain performance.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to clean a roof?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-does-roof-cleaning-cost.htm">cost to clean a roof</a> is around <b>$500</b>, but prices can fall between <b>$150 to $1,000 or more</b>. The size and complexity of your roof are the most significant cost factors, as larger roofs and those with various bump-outs and gables will increase your cost. Your roof material will also make a difference. An asphalt roof will require more labor, as your professional will need to be careful not to damage the shingles. A metal roof can stand up to more intense scrubbing and shouldn&rsquo;t take as long to clean.</p></div>

Q: Can pros remove tough stains and mildew?

• <div><p>Yes, pros use specialized solutions and pressure settings tailored to surface sensitivity.</p></div>
