| Description: | Portland is known for rain and if you need anything to grow moss it is rain!
There are three main ingredients to grow moss on a roof, which are: Rain, Shade, and a Cool Climate. Portland has these exact and perfect moss growing conditions about 9 months out of the year.
Here is a list of some areas where you should be on the lookout for roof moss growth:
Regions of your roof that don’t get sunlight
Under tree branches that grow over your roof
In roof valleys
Around chimneys, skylights
Near pipes and vents
Even if you see your roof everyday, moss can go undetected for quite sometime. It can grow under and behind areas that aren’t easily seen from the ground, which makes it harder to detect. That is why we highly recommend routine inspections by an experienced roof cleaner.
It is common to not be able to identify Portland roof moss growth by sight from the ground. Unless there are huge growth that has been going for a while it is common to think of minor growth as nothing hazardous. But just because there isn’t big green mounds doesn’t mean there is no need to be alarmed. There are many species of greenery that can grow on your roof and they all can equally cause major damages to your residential or commercial roof.
