Q: What’s the big deal with a little moss, algae, or lichen?
A: Here’s what most folks don’t realize. That stuff ain’t just making your house, roof, concrete, or pavers look dirty.
It’s alive, it’s growing, and some of it—especially lichen—can produce natural acids that slowly work on the surface underneath it. On top of that, moss and other growth hold moisture and can work their way down into little cracks, pores, and joints.
Now, is it gonna destroy your property tomorrow? No.
But let it sit there wet and growing year after year, and it can start staining, etching, and breaking down certain surfaces. Once that starts happening, you ain’t always talking about a simple cleaning anymore. Now you may be talking about repairing or restoring something.
That’s why we’re big on maintenance.
Take care of it while it’s still a cleaning problem instead of waiting until it becomes a repair problem.
