Overview

Moss and Delta humidity

Moss likes damp air, and Walnut Grove has more of it than inland Sacramento. The town sits low behind the levees at the river junction, and its older river-town homes have had decades of that humidity working on their roofs. Newer construction outside the historic core usually carries far less growth.

Shade adds to it. The same damp, shaded conditions that put algae on siding near the levee let moss and lichen settle on the shaded parts of a roof.

Heavy, raised moss is brushed off by hand first, then the whole roof is treated so the rest dies at the root and blows off over the following two to three weeks. A pressure washer would strip the granules off older shingles, so it never comes near them.

Roofs across Walnut Grove, near Locke included, are in our service area.

What's included

In the price — and what isn't.

Included in every visit

  • Moss brushed off

    Heavy moss removed mechanically, with a brush.

  • Whole-roof treatment

    Kills lichen and small moss at the root.

  • Return visit

    Two to three weeks later, to check the result.

  • Clean-up below

    What comes off the roof is cleaned up, including on a neighbor's property when houses sit close.

Not included

  • Pressure washing the roof: it strips the protective granules off shingles and damages soft roofing
  • Roof repairs, replacement shingles and sealing: we clean, we do not re-roof
  • Gutter clearing, which is a separate service

Process

How we do Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal.

  1. Read the growth

    We look at what is growing up there, since heavy raised moss and flat lichen need different treatments, and a person replies with a starting price.

  2. Brush off moss

    Heavy moss is brushed off mechanically.

  3. Treat the roof

    The roof is sprayed with a treatment that kills the remaining growth at the root.

  4. Lichen dies off

    Over the following two to three weeks the lichen dies and blows off in the wind. Nothing more is needed from you.

  5. Return visit

    We come back in two to three weeks to see the result for ourselves.

The crew was right on time and did a thorough job, leaving everything in my place looking great and taking good care not to disturb anything. Marianna comes every Monday and turns our mess into a home—I wouldn’t give her up for the world.

Natalia showed up on time to our cleaning appointment. She was extremely respectful, soft demeanor, and very kind. It's always difficult trusting strangers in our homes, but I felt completely comfortable with having her here. She did an amazing job cleaning, and I will definitely request her return. Thank you so much!

FAQ

(279) 300-0830
Do older Walnut Grove roofs need more moss treatment?

Often, yes. Decades of humid river air have helped moss take hold on the older river-town roofs, more than on newer construction outside the historic core.

Do you do the follow-up visit for Walnut Grove roof jobs?

Yes. We come back two to three weeks after the treatment to check the result, the same as anywhere else we work, by which time the treated growth has died off.

Why not pressure wash a moss-covered roof in Walnut Grove?

Because it damages the roof. Pressure washing strips the protective granules off shingles, which an older roof can least afford. Heavy moss is brushed off instead, and a treatment kills what is left at the root.
