A dark stained roof is ugly, and detracts from the beauty of your home. Your electric bills are higher because of hotter under roof temperatures. Heat increases the roofs expansion and contraction which dramatically reduces its life; and fungus spores growing on your roof can possibly contribute to the risk of the "Sick Building Syndrome" (a condition caused by increased levels of algae, mold, and fungus growing in the duct systems of buildings).

People who spend time inside a contaminated building begin to complain about allergic reactions, respiratory problems, and headaches. Experts say that the best way to combat this condition is to keep mold and algae spores away from both the inside and outside of the dwelling. How much fungus is growing on your roof? And what can be done to prevent it from ruining your shingles?

Fungus spores require three things to grow: nutrients, moisture, and sunlight (all of which are abundant in South Florida). The type of fungus that grows on an "Asphalt Fiberglass Shingle" is a living specialized plant, that feeds on and destroys your roof! Even the so-called "Fungus Resistant Shingles" are not fungus-proof.
