Shingle Manufacturer Approved Process.
Do you remember the first time you looked up at
your roof and noticed those black stains appearing on your shingles?
Do
you remember how you felt when you saw it slowly spreading across your
roof? Have
you ever wondered how this could be happening and
what could be causing it?
Well, you are not alone. This is a common
problem found in the Southeast. In the South’s hot and humid climate, it
seems inevitable that a
fungus
will actually begin to grow on your shingles leaving behind those ugly
stains. Like all
fungi,
they multiply by microscopic spores that float through the air. After
landing on a hospitable surface they begin to germinate. The spores that
settle on the northern exposure of the roof typically stand a better
chance of survival because it is normally the last part of the roof to
dry after rain or morning dew. Once the sun heats the roof, the moisture
trapped around the base of the ceramic granules begins evaporating. This
raises the humidity on the surface of the shingles, thus creating a
perfect breeding environment for
fungi.
The tar used in the manufacture of asphalt shingles is fossilized, dead
organic matter. This is the specific food source needed to support
saprophytic
fungus.
These
fungi
feed on dead organic matter
decomposing and
destroying
the host they are living on.

Rid of the
STAINS

the
