What roof maintenance do you do?

Asked by gondwanalon (22894points) June 11th, 2023 from iPhone

One roof cleaning company recommends cleaning the roof every 3 to 5 years and having a roof inspection every 2 years.

My roof is 20 years old and I think it’s in very good shape.
This roof is supposed to last 30 years.

This is what I do:
At least 3 times a year I clear off leaves and branches (Doug Fir, Ted Alder and Broad Leaf Maple) from the roof from surrounding trees.

Once or twice a year I put moss and algae control on the roof (which is a big problem here in the PNW).

I’m getting a free roof inspection tomorrow. If the conclusion is, “Your roof needs replacing” then I’ll need a second opinion because there are no leaks and the roof still looks very good.

What about you?
