Q: What does professional roof cleaning typically cost?

• <div><p>The cost depends on roof size, pitch, accessibility, and contamination extent. A steep roof or extensive moss growth may raise the price.</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: How do you prevent moss from growing on a roof?

• <div><p>You may become so frustrated with the look of moss on your roof that you contemplate whether to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-reasons-clean-your-roof-instead-replacing-it.htm">clean or replace your roof</a>. Fortunately, you don&rsquo;t have to go as far as replacing it. After cleaning the moss, you can use a chemical solution to keep it away. For further protection, trim branches that overhang the roof, as fallen seed pods and leaves on the roof allow moisture to collect, encouraging moss growth. Consider adding zinc-coated flashing to the roof, too. As rain washes across the zinc, it leaves zinc particles behind that inhibit moss growth.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain a sealed roof?

• <div><p>Inspect annually for damage, clean debris, and reapply sealant to maintain protection.</p></div>

We recently bought our home, and the home inspector completely missed that the roof was in utter disrepair. We literally had a leak not 8 hours after closing. We took several bids for a new roof from different roofing companies. After speaking with Jack, the owner I was sold on Carlon. He is the...

WORST Inspection EVER!!! The guy literally told us (in front of the homeowners) that there were only three things that he found. A window in the garage (we'd likely never use) needed the spring fixed to ensure it stayed open, the hand rail on the deck was too big to consider "graspable", and the...

He comes every year. He's the only one that has ever cleaned it and he's the only one that I'd ever called. I'm assuming they are pretty good. He's been doing it for the last 15 years.

It was a long process, but David Sugg kept everything running smoothly. Since it was such a large project, there were several steps that involved many skilled workers from concrete and bricklayers, electricians, roofers and siding professionals. For the most part (weather permitting) there...

The roof was put on quickly, but old roof was supposed to be removed first, which it was not. There is water damage on the ceiling in 3 rooms that he said he would fix. I have called him 6 times and emailed without a response. This is now December and I have not heard back from him.

"My handrails had been dinged from the hailstorm in May. This pro came to see what needed to be done, gave me an estimate of the cost to redo these by sanding, spray painting with primer, and the material cost. When he showed up as promised, he covered all the exposed portions of the porch with plastic and cardboard to avoid unwanted paint smears. The handrails look almost new and that is amazing since they are original to the house and have been painted many times. Very professional."
