Pressure washing in Glocester, RI

Glocester is trees. West of Chepachet the road runs through state forest and the cover barely lets up until you are into Connecticut. Up around Durfee Hill it closes in tighter still. That canopy is the reason most calls from this town start with the roof rather than the siding.

Shade holds moisture on an asphalt shingle roof, and moisture feeds the black streaking homeowners notice on the north slope first. ARMA recommends soft washing for asphalt shingle algae, and that is what we do. Low pressure and a biodegradable detergent that does the work chemically instead of by force. We never put high pressure on a roof or on siding. Concrete and hardscape are the only places it comes out.

Gutters fill fast under oak and maple, and a backed-up downspout will stain the wall below it. Text photos to (860) 553-9326 and we will quote the roof and the gutters together.

Glocester runs about 35 minutes from us, so we group it with our other Rhode Island days rather than dropping in on short notice. Give us a week of lead time and we can usually put you on a route that already exists, which is easier on everybody's schedule.
