FAQ

Even while cedar has some inherent resistance to unwanted visitors, frequent washing and cleaning will make sure that moss, mould, and mildew do not establish a foothold on your roof. During cleanings, it’s a good idea to visually check the roof to make sure no dirt is accumulating on top of it. Let Insured Roofs Services handle the dirty labour for you as we provide non-toxic roof cleaning!
