With South Florida's intense heat, humidity and heavy rains, keeping your roof clean is a never ending challenge. Violation notices from property owners’ associations or from the city for the ugly black streaks and dirty appearance of your roof can be a headache. In addition to these two issues, the pressure of locating a reputable company with competitive prices and speedy results will certainly add to the stress of owning your very own home sweet home.

However, at Roof Treatment Inc., their goal is to provide customers with exactly the kind of quality service discerning homeowners expect. Located locally in Davie, this family owned and operated business is licensed and insured, and has serving south Florida for over ten years. "We have the best product on the market. We preserve roofs, we don't destroy roofs!" said Christina Miele, who co-owns Roof Treatment Inc. with brother, Frank Miele.

Roof Treatment Inc. is actually one of a few companies in the SoFlo area that uses a patented product called Roof-A-Cide.  Effective on all types of roofs, this innovative chemical is a 100% copper-based material that is the only EPA approved algaecide / fungicide on the market. Not only is it gentle on your roof, but it is safe for plants and shrubs as well.  Christina states that it is the most effective alternative to repetitive roof cleaning, which has been known to cause premature damage. "There's no chlorine, bleach, or harsh chemicals to deteriorate the roof.”

Traditional cleaning typically involves chlorine bleach or pressure cleaning – both of which have been known to cause unnecessary and sometimes extensive damage to the roof and surrounding property.  Also, these methods yield minimal results that typically last a mere 6-12 months. Roof-A-Cide, however, is guaranteed to last two years. Each customer receives a two year warranty backed by the applicator and manufacturer.  Less cleaning, and less people walking on your roof means greater durability. A properly cared for roof could last up to 25-30 years, even though many homeowners in Florida are forced to replace their roofs after only 12-15 years because of the damage caused by repeated cleaning.

Christina says Roof-A-Cide is a safe and effective method that permanently eradicates mold, unlike chlorine. Chlorine initially gets rid of the mold, but once the gas from the chlorine evaporates, it leaves behind a residue that becomes fertilizer for the next colony of mold to grow. It becomes an accelerator.  Consequently, repeated cleaning is needed much sooner. The natural erosion that occurs over time from the basic weather conditions is enough to bring most roofs to the point where annual inspections and minor repairs are a necessity to prevent significant repair costs. Along with repeated cleaning, concrete tiles are more likely to shift, slip, or break and asphalt shingles are more likely to become brittle and crack.  As these factors take their toll on the roof, there becomes a greater chance of damaging the roof simply by walking on it, or even worse, the roof becomes so compromised it caves under even minimal stress.

Roof-A-Cide eliminates the need for repeated and unnecessary pressure cleanings.  It will be the last time you clean your roof," Frank said.  Roof-A-Cide comes with an unconditional 2-year guarantee. Once your roof is cleaned, authorized applicators will treat your roof with Roof-A-Cide and will guarantee discoloration for two years.  Roof Treatment Inc, is currently offering a Summer Special through August.

When technicians return in two years, the roof does not need to be re-cleaned, just re-treated. "All we have to do is come back and give the roof a light spray every two years. It takes less time because we don't have to clean it again," he said. "And of course, It will expand the life of your roof because you don't have people walking on it every year, and you don't have water pressure or harsh chemicals beating it down," he said.

Something else to keep in mind, with water conservation becoming a rising concern, one Roof-A-Cide application takes about 30 gallons of water, equal to a 5 minutes shower, per two years in comparison to 1,000+  gallons of water needed to pressure clean per year on an average 3000 square foot roof to achieve the same results.  This along with EPA registration makes it an easy decision for homeowners to go green without paying too much green.
