Roof cleaning in the Midwest is almost unheard of. Many homeowners see black stains on their roof and they instantly believe their shingles are failing and it is time for a roof replacement. This is simply not true.

Slowly but surely, many homeowners are becoming educated about roof cleaning, and are understanding their roofs can be cleaned with very low pressure and the right roof cleaning chemicals and detergents.

For example, in St. Louis roof cleaning by our company was up by over 300% from 2006 to 2007. This was simply because homeowners in the area just don’t know for a fraction of the cost their roof can safely and gently be cleaned instead of costly replacement.

Our goal at Marler’s is to help educate the Midwest, with Missouri being our first state. If we can start educating people about roof cleaning in Missouri, then we will be on our way to saving the homeowners in the Midwest thousands of dollars, if not millions.

Roof stains are just a form of algae that is growing on your roof. The algae is feeding off of the ingredients the shingle manufacture put in the shingle. If left untreated, the algae will just grow, and grow, and grow. Not only is it a huge eyesore, but it can cause your roof to fail prematurely.
