tile . It could damage the roof . We can review your roof and determine if pressure washing is the best option .
It ’ s completely fine to pressure wash in the rain . While rain can affect some repairs and roof maintenance projects , it won ’ t affect a pressure washing project . You are already putting large amounts of pressurized water on your roof , just view the rain as a little extra rinse .
Leave pressure washing to a professional . Pressure washing isn ’ t as simple as it seems . For best results , you should always have a professional pressure wash your roof . Not contracting an experienced professional can leave uneven strokes causing highlights on your roof , zebra stripes or broken tiles / shakes on your home . Your best bet is to always go with a professional .
Pressure washing is messy . While the end result may be a beautifully clean roof , the process is not so beautiful . The moss , debris and dirt that ’ s on your roof must go somewhere when it ’ s mixed with water and coming off your roof . Our crews will put tarps down below the roof line to catch as much of the dirty water as we can , but it will never catch it all . Some mud and water will still get on anything below the roof line , such as plants , furniture , or walkways . We clean up as much of the mess that lands at ground level , outside of the tarps
There are things you can do to help minimize the mess . Move vehicles out of the driveway and out of the way . Make sure all windows are closed . Move any potted plants or patio furniture 20 feet away from the roof line .
If you have a skylight and are pressure washing your home , there ’ s a chance water will leak in . You need to prepare the area below your skylight properly . Due to the high pressure and direction of the water flow , sometimes water will leak in through the seams of a skylight during a pressure washing .
Ask questions prior to pressure washing . Communicate any concerns prior to pressure washing your roof . If you have fears or concerns , get answers before any problems become reality . Most companies , including Northwest Roof Maintenance , would rather alleviate fears and set expectations before completing a job than have an upset customer afterwards .
