When was the last time your roof tiles were cleaned? Okay, we get it. You used to believe that your roof didn't need major cleaning. You are not the only one. Many homeowners neglect to clean their roof shingles.

The roof, like all other structures in your house needs to be maintained. Roof maintenance is an important part of your exterior. If your guests visit a house that is unappetizing, they will form an opinion about it.
We have made it clear why roof shingles should be maintained. Here is a simple guide on how to clean your home. It is important that you have your roof checked before you start cleaning. This will ensure that there are no leaks or other damage. Here's a step-by, illustrated guide on how to clean your roof shingles.
Although it may sound difficult, this is actually quite simple. Mix hot water, bleach, and detergent in a large container. The soap granules will dissolve in the hot water. Next, pour the mixture into a garden sprayer. Be careful when cleaning. You should clean them on a cool, dry day to ensure that the cleaning solution doesn't dry out as quickly as it is applied to the shingles.
After the cleaner has settled in the sprayer you can take it up to your roof. Spray cleaner on a small section of roof. Be careful not to spray the entire roof at once. The ideal size for the chosen section should be at least 3 feet high and 10 feet wide. You can then soak the area in cleaner and let it sit for 15 minutes.
Roof cleaning can lead to slippery surfaces. To avoid serious injury, it is best to start cleaning from the lower portion of your roof.
After about 15 minutes, scrub the area with a broom. While you scrub, keep the area moistened. Spray the cleaner again if it seems dry.
