What We See on Roofs in Alachua
Around Alachua, mature oak and pine canopy drops leaves, needles and pollen onto roofs that already stay damp from morning dew. That debris holds moisture, and algae, moss and lichen move in, especially on shaded north-facing slopes.
Most roofs around Alachua do best with a cleaning every 12 to 24 months, depending on how much tree cover shades them. Waiting too long lets growth dig in and makes the eventual cleaning harder.
