 Here I would like to share a potential concern for homeowners with asphalt shingle roofs. Many homeowners feel pride when they see the rich textures and precise colors of a beautifully-installed new roof. But as time goes by, their roof will have some black, dark streaks or discolored patches show up, which makes the roof look old. 

At present, for homeowners who have installed asphalt tile roofs, we can usually use the following two methods.

One is to use tools to manually remove algae. This method will cause relatively little damage to roof tiles in the case of severe algae, but it requires a lot of labor costs.

The second is to spray algae with bleach mixed with water, which is relatively time-saving, but it needs to be removed regularly by the homeowner. Long-term use of bleach may cause the roof tiles to lose their original beautiful color. It is only applicable Perform regular spraying to remove algae when the early algae are not serious.

The best way to prevent this unsightly problem is by reinstalling Sangobuild® algae-resistant shingles. Featuring copper-infused surface granules that possess natural anti-algae properties, it prevents algae from taking hold on shingles - helping roofs maintain their beauty and color, and helping homeowners avoid expensive algae cleaning or time-consuming roof maintenance.
