"We are trying to sell our house and our listing agent told us she highly recommended cleaning up our roof before we put it on the market. It's older but we know we still have good life on the roof. What do you think?"
This is a very common dialogue for us at Wash-Rite SoftWashing. When trying to sell your home it's no secret that the better it looks the faster it will go. It's just common sense. Think about it for a second. If an appraiser comes in and sees that your roof is littered with lichen, moss, mold, mildew and Gloeocapsa Magma (dark staining) he is going to put it in his report...The homeowner did not take good care of the roof it shows organic growth/staining and a new roof is going to be needed in the near future. This then gets flagged by the buyers real estate agent or even the buyer themselves. Now you have a negotiating point for a drop in price.
As we know, roof replacements aren’t cheap especially when you could have had it washed and looking spotless with no damage to the integrity of the shingle for just a fraction of the cost. Lesson to be learned here is sometimes it takes a little money spending to save or even make money. Call us the roof washing pros and let us clean your house up before putting it on the market. 203-7672134
