Yes—we do. At L&L Roofing & Construction, we provide professional cleaning services for cedar shake and wood shingle roofs. Wood roofing is beautiful and durable, but in Georgia’s humid climate, it can develop moss, algae, or mildew over time. Regular cleaning helps your roof stay strong and attractive for decades.
Why Cleaning Matters for Wood Roofs
- Prevents Decay: Removes moss and algae that hold moisture against the wood.
- Restores Appearance: Brings back the natural beauty of cedar shakes or shingles.
- Extends Lifespan: Proper maintenance can add years to the roof’s service life.
- Protects Investment: Keeps warranties valid and your roof performing at its best.
Our Cleaning Approach
- Gentle Process: We never use harsh pressure washing that can damage wood fibers.
- Safe Solutions: Eco-friendly cleaners that remove growth without harming the roof.
- Full Inspection: Every cleaning includes a check for cracked, split, or damaged shakes.
- Ongoing Care: We can recommend a schedule based on your roof’s age and exposure.
FAQ: Do You Offer Cleaning Services for Wood Roofing?
Q: How often should my cedar roof be cleaned?
A: Every 3–5 years is typical in Gainesville, but shaded roofs may need more frequent service.
Q: Can I clean my wood roof myself?
A: We don’t recommend it. Using the wrong tools or chemicals can damage the cedar or shorten the roof’s life.
