Why Algae Growth Is a Problem

Algae and moss hold moisture. Over time this can stain surfaces, weaken mortar, and contribute to drainage issues. Cleaning helps protect your roof and keeps the property looking its best.

  • Causes stains and discoloration
  • Can gradually deteriorate tiles and mortar
  • Creates slippery surfaces when wet
  • May contribute to blocked gutters and water overflow

Roof underlayment and flashing

ROOF PROTECTION SYSTEM

Roof Underlayment & Flashing

Roof underlayment and flashing are essential parts of a roofing system. Together, they help protect your property from leaks, moisture damage, and long-term structural issues.

Why They Matter

A roofing system is more than just tiles or shingles. Underlayment adds an extra protective layer beneath the outer roofing material, while flashing seals vulnerable areas such as chimneys, skylights, roof edges, and valleys.

Proper underlayment and flashing are essential for preventing leaks, water damage, and premature roof deterioration.

When installed correctly, these components improve weather resistance, help manage moisture, and extend the life of the roof.
