Do heated roof cables prevent ice damming?

• <div><p>Yes, and they do it exceptionally well. Heated roof cables have two purposes: melting snow and preventing ice buildup. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-causes-ice-dams.htm">Ice damming</a> <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-prevent-ice-dams.htm">happens when ice forms on the roof</a> (usually where the roof meets the gutter) and melts stubbornly slowly, causing moisture to enter the roof itself and, therefore, the home. </p></div>

Q: What surfaces benefit most from power washing?

• <div><p>Decks, driveways, siding, and patios are common areas that see improved appearance.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a PVC roof?

• <div><p>To keep your PVC roof in top condition, keep it clear of debris, ensure drainage systems are working properly, and inspect it for damage regularly. Keeping the roof clear of ponding water, sharp debris, and other hazards will prevent damage. Have your roof inspected by a professional once a year to ensure the seams aren&rsquo;t damaged or separated&mdash;faulty seams can lead to destructive water intrusion. </p></div>

Q: Does algae hurt roof shingles?

• <div><p>While spotting a bit of algae on your roof may not bother you at first glance, it is certainly bothering your roof shingles. The presence of algae can cause decay and shorten the lifespan of your roof&rsquo;s shingles, which can lead to much bigger problems down the road. While this issue may seem cosmetic at first glance, it goes much deeper than that.</p></div>

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>

We paid Absolute Roofing out of Elkhorn Nebraska just under $17,000.00 for tear off, new sheathing, and shingles. They finished our roof in two days as we have a very small bungalow built in 1930. Our original soffit lasted 85 years before Absolute Roofing worked on our home. As of now it is...

Outstanding service all the way around. When Jonathan was finished with the carpet cleaning, the heavily soiled foot traffic areas were just as clean as the rest of the carpet. This company is very easy to work with and performs quality work. I highly recommend Pro Care Cleaning.
