Keeping your rain gutters free of debris and flowing properly is vital to the overall well‐being of your home and should be done twice a year, especially if you live around a wooded area with many trees. Clogged gutters full of rainwater can cause a number of problems, including mold, foundation leaks and cracks, basement flooding, damage to your wood siding/vinyl siding and winter ice dam build‐up ‐ all of which could cost you thousands of dollars in repairs. Stagnant water sitting in your gutters is also a breeding ground for a multitude of bugs and insects that carry potentially dangerous diseases like West Nile Virus.
Many people have began to install composite decks because they are supposed to be “maintenance-free”, however, as you have probably discovered, like wooden decks, they too accumulate dirt, mold, algae and grime. This results in a dull and faded appearance.
You care about your home looking its best. If your driveway, walkway or other surfaces are dirty, your curb appeal will suffer. Even worse than that, your unprotected concrete is much more likely to get stained and damaged. This damage can happen in the winter when water moisture gets into the pores of the unsealed surface of the concrete. The moisture then freezes and expands and cracks your concrete apart. In the spring you are then left with cracked and damaged concrete that needs to be replaced. Have Stay Clean Power Washing clean and seal your concrete for you to prevent costly future repairs. We specialize in cleaning all concrete surfaces from driveways, patios, and walkways, to front porches and more.

Dirt, stains, mildew, algae and environmental debris build up on a home, gradually dulling and fading the exterior. This leaves the finish dull and tired-looking. Cleaning the exterior discourages the growth of mold and mildew, both of which can cause allergic reactions and respiratory problems as well as deterioration of the surfaces that they live on creating hefty repair bills.

Roof cleaning is about more than just having a clean LOOKING roof. It is also about attending to the overall health of your roof and home. Roof mold, lichen and algae can be dangerous as they stealthily creep and grow underneath your shingles and act like a sponge soaking up water that can lead to leaks, shingle damage and costly repairs.
The black streaks that you see on your roof are a result of a certain type of blue-green algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. If not treated in a timely manner, this algae will eventually begin to compromise the integrity of your shingles and lead to unexpected and costly roof repairs.
The process typically begins as the algae spores land and attach to your roof from over hanging trees, birds, and or wind. The algae consumes the limestone filler found in your shingle granules. The limestone filler acts as a food source for the algae allowing the algae to grow and eventually cover larger and larger sections of your roof.
As the algae spreads it is literally eating your shingles! If this is allowed to continue untreated, the algae will cause a loss of roof granules which are vital to the reflective properties of your roof. The loss of these granules leads to greater heat build up and roof leaks. This guarantees higher energy costs to and hefty repair bills for you.
Deteriorating shingles can take years off of the life of your roof. A new roof can cost anywhere between $6,000 and $20,000 today.
