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: Can moss damage my roof?

• <div><p>Yes, moss can be dangerous for your roof if left in place to grow without treatment. The moss soaks up and holds moisture. Having a constantly damp roof could lead to problems with rot for the parts of the roof that consist of wood. Additionally, a patch of thick moss may draw insects and birds, which could damage the roof. Thick moss could block the roof&rsquo;s drainage system. Water then may back up after a rainstorm and cause further damage that could eventually lead to roof repair expenses or the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-roof-replacement-cost.htm">cost of roof replacement</a>.</p></div>

Q: How do you hang Christmas lights on a roof without gutters?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have gutters, you can hang <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-hang-christmas-lights-tile-roof.htm">Christmas lights on your tile roof</a> or shingles with the right kind of roof clips. Again, you should avoid using nails or staples, as they could damage your roof&rsquo;s material. Adhesive light-hanging clips are best for hanging lights on a roof.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Should I clean a green roof?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-green-roof.htm">green roof</a> is a roof design that includes a thin layer of vegetation on the roof surface. It&rsquo;s an environmentally friendly option. Some green roofs may look like they have moss or algae on them, causing neighbors to suggest that you clean the roof. However, you should never try to clean a green roof, as any cleaning methods you deploy will likely kill the vegetation.</p></div>

They did a free safety check and gave us a couple of things we needed to update. We did some but Mr. Electric did put GFI outlet on our kitchen. They followed all the safety rules, cleaned up after themselves and were very efficient!
