Preventative Moss Treatment

Protect your investment with our preventative moss treatment application, designed for the Pacific Northwest's wet climate:

  • Annual Maintenance Plans: Regular inspections and reapplication to maintain protection year-round
  • Extended Roof Life: Preventative treatment helps extend your roof's lifespan by preventing moisture damage and deterioration

Why Moss Growth is Harmful to Your Roof

Moisture Retention

Moss acts like a sponge, holding moisture against shingles and accelerating deterioration and rot

Shingle Damage

Moss roots burrow under shingles, lifting edges and creating pathways for water infiltration

Reduced Lifespan

Untreated moss can reduce your roof's lifespan by 30-50%, leading to premature replacement
