The first thing a person sees of your home is the roof….the “curb appeal” in realtor’s language. A dirty or contaminated roof diminishes the value of your home. Nearly 50% of the initial impression a buyer makes is determined by the appearance of your roof. Even a well cared for property with a well manucured landscaping, can’t overcome this initial negative impression.
A roof with moss, algae or mildew immediately raises doubts about the integrity and overall maintenance of the property, and raises concerns about the life left in the roof.
Roof cleaning before listing is a fast and affordable way of adding thousands of dollars to the value. The results are visually dramatic and is one of the least expensive ways to enhance the the “saleability” of your home.
