Imagine you had just pressure cleaned your old, unattractive roof that contained dirt and algae.  Then a few months down the road, you notice the beautiful roof you just had cleaned, starts to build up that dirty look again.   The unsightly algae and fungus has started to grow (which can eventually cause damage).

Now that we have you thinking, what if there was a product that is safe for your plants, your pets and will hinder the algae formation on your roof while protecting the breakdown of tile and wear and tear of the continued need of cleaning your roof? 

Luckily, there is a product available in South West Florida that is environmentally friendly, EPA approved AND approved by the tile and shingle manufacturers’ and does such a thing.  Imagine that right?  Roof-A-Cide ®is available by Hoover Pressure Cleaning, and we service Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte and Lee Counties.  This includes the cities of Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Sarasota, Nokomis, Osprey, Venice, Englewood (Cape Haze/Placida), North Port, Port Charlotte & Punta Gorda.

1.       Environmentally Safe

Roof-A-Cide ®is available through Hoover Pressure Cleaning – “The Plant Friendly People”.  Roof-A-Cide® is a proprietary mixture of cleaning agents and EPA approved algaecides that are extremely effective in controlling recurring discoloration on tile and asphalt shingle roof surfaces. It is applied to the roof surface and will keep it clean for at least 2 years! When applied every two years, the unsightly stains will NEVER return – GUARANTEED!   NO MORE CLEANING!

2.       Prevention

Nasty fungus, algae and mold grow on dirt and may cause costly damage to your roof.  Not only do these organisms have an undesirable look to your home or business, but they can cause damage by breaking down the tiles or shingles on your roof over time and may cause problems.   The algae and fungus attach to dirt on your home and will make its way to the surface of the shingle.  Once it has adhered itself to the shingle it starts to break it down by feeding on the dead organic matter used in the construction process of the shingle.  Protective granules then begin to fall off and early corrosion of the shingles occur.  Algae loves to bind into the tile making it difficult to remove.  Roof-A-Cide® has been preventing roof algae for nearly 20 years and is proven and serving over 12 algae growing states.

3.        Warranty and Guarantee

It is guaranteed that Roof-A-Cide® will protect the roof surface against recurring algae, mold, mildew and fungus for a period of 2 full years.  In the unlikely event of a recurrence of growth within the time frame, the discolored area will be cleaned and/or treated at no additional cost to the customer.  What does this mean to you?  It means not only do you have the full 2 year guarantee from the manufacturer of Roof-A-Cide®, but you also have a full 2 year warranty from Hoover Pressure Cleaning, the Authorized Applicator. 

With a preventative treatment every two years, the roof will remain free and clear of algae, mold, mildew and fungus for the life of the roof – Guaranteed.

Hoover Pressure Cleaning Pool Cage Cleaning

Investing in your home by purchasing a lanai, pool cage or screen enclosure can be an expensive transaction.
Which is why getting the longest life out of your purchase is very important!

Regular cleaning and maintenance of your lanai, pool cage and screened enclosures will prolong their life.  Hoover Pressure Cleaning, located in Southwest Florida, has trained technicians and expert equipment to carry out any pressure cleaning project you may have.

Not only will power washing your commercial or residential property add curb appeal, but it will also help keep the extrusion safe from deterioration.

Algae prospers in humid and warm climates, when algae is found on your aluminum framework, it is important to get the algae removed as soon as possible as it is working to compromise the aluminum as well as break down the crucial protective barriers of the metal and its coating.  If the fungus are left on cage framework too long, it will deteriorate the paint or coatings on the metal.

For screens, it will speed up deterioration causing them to become brittle, reduce the life expectancy and make the enclosure very unattractive.  The charcoal screen can become colored with fungus or show algae attached to it.  The outside barrier or the screen will be weakened and “eaten” away. As this happens you will find the fiberglass yarn turning white or silver and it is coming off the metal that makes the screen.

Not only does this make the screen unsightly, but also mold will reduce the strength of the screen and eventually you will notice the discoloration.  Various panels may even need to be replaced due to rips and tear- outs at the spine.

Therefore, proper pressure cleaning on a regular basis is
imperative to extending the life of your screen enclosures and making them look
beautiful and back to new!

Fungus is serious and many people think it is a visual issue only.  But fungus breaks down ALL protective surfaces, and should be cleaned on a regular basis to prevent corrosion.  Since algae spread very easily, you will notice it will be more prominently in areas where the humidity is increased, usually where there is prominent shade and where water collects.  Algae will spread rapidly and since it is transmitted by wind and wild life, you will find it will cover a wide range of
buildings in the same area or neighborhood.

The simplest way to get rid of the fungus on your lanai, pool cage or screen enclosure and to prolong the life of the structure is to pressure clean with proper techniques.

Hoover Pressure Cleaning in Southwest Florida specifically serving Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte and Lee Counties.

Depending on your structures, there are different spray techniques and pressures available to thoroughly clean and to protect your homes outdoor living area and maintain your wonderful investment.

Tile Roof Cleaning by Hoover Pressure Cleaning

Have you ever noticed the green or black stains on your roof?  The stains and streaks you see running down your roof is not dirt!  It is Algae, Moss, Fungus or other organisms, which have taken root in your roof.  These nasty organisms grow and bind into your roof and will cause devastating effects on your roof if it is not cleaned and maintained.  Not only do these elements have a negative appearance on your home or business in Southwest Florida, but can drastically reduce the life of your roof by breaking down the tile and shingles potentially causing problems with leaks and moisture penetration and shortening the life of your roof.  Not only is it unsightly, but also it can become very costly to repair the damage the roof algae have caused. 

Ever wonder how the algae break down the shingles?  The process can spread at different rates depending on the elements around your home.  Once roof algae attaches to a shingle roof, it breaks down the shingles by feeding on the dead organic matter used in the manufacturing process of the shingle.  During this process, the granules protecting the surface of the shingles begin to loosen and eventually may fall off.  This causes premature deterioration and weakens the roof’s abilities to reflect the heat rays, when this process occurs, it will can your cooling expenses.  For your tile, you also have energy efficiency issues along with premature deterioration of the mortar joints and well as the tile themselves.
