One small visit a year beats one big job every ten.
We built the maintenance plan around a simple idea: it is cheaper to keep moss off your roof than to let it come back and cost you years of roof life. Here is what a year on the plan actually looks like.
Moss does not take a year off. Neither should your roof.
Portland moss does not care that you had your roof cleaned last spring. It is already working back in — under branches, along shaded north slopes, in valleys that never fully dry out. One cleaning knocks it back. Treating it every year is what keeps it from coming back
Moss holds moisture against your shingles, breaks down granules, and works its way into fasteners and flashing over time — slow damage that adds up if nobody's checking on it. We have seen homeowners on a yearly plan get another 5–10 years of life out of a roof that would have otherwise needed replacing early.
The treatment itself is the same safe, USA-made product we use on every job — no zinc, no bleach, no peroxide — EPA-registered. We love it! It is amazing!
Our maintenance plan comes down to four things.
Every roof's schedule is pretty much the same. One treatment per year — kept simple on purpose, because that is what actually protects a roof.
Roof & Gutter Cleaning
The base of every visit — the roof treated and loose debris cleared off, with gutters and downspouts cleaned. and a roof check done.
Future Roof Maintenance
The long-term piece. Once you are on the plan, you are already on our list to come back before moss re-establishes, and we contact you before every visit — with a full inspection and photos emailed afterward. We like to stay organized, so that you do not have worry about it.
Roof Treatments
The same safe, USA-made treatment on every job — registered with the USDA and EPA-certified, no zinc, bleach, or peroxide. It is an eco friendly alternative.
Lifetime roof Repairs
We can do roof repairs as well. With 25 years in the roofing business, our crew can handle almost all roof repair jobs. We like the Lifetime pipe boots for replacement when a pipe boot is worn out. These are the number one cause of roof leaks.
Same four stages, every year you are on the plan.
Treat
We apply the treatment to the full roof, clear the gutters on most homes at the same visit, and let the product do its work.
Inspect & Photograph
While we are up there, we look past the moss — pipe vents, nail heads, shingle wear, anything that could turn into a leak — and photograph what we find.
Report
You get the photos and notes emailed straight to you. If something needs attention, we will say so plainly and quote it separately — nothing bundled in without you knowing.
Repeat Next Year
We will email you a year later as a head up to be back before moss has a chance to fully re-establish. Most roofs run on this yearly rhythm indefinitely.
An average, folks who are on the annual treatment/maintenance plan have the best results.
Been in the roofing business for over 25 years-
We have tested plenty of treatments over 25+ years.
Our background is maintaining and treating roofs, cleaning roofs, selling and installing new roofs, repairs, and gutter cleaning and repairs as well.
A cheap habit beats an expensive emergency.
An annual treatment costs a fraction of what a neglected roof eventually costs you — in an early roof replacement, in gutter damage, in a leak that started as a nail nobody spotted.
From Our original flyer — as true now as it was then.
"Roof preservation will save you money in the long run. Moss can and will deteriorate a roof."
The philosophy hasn't changed: protect your home — your most valuable possession.
We will match a fully legal competitor's price — and point you to one.
We've spent 25+ years watching how other moss cleaning outfits operate around Portland, and have built two policies around what we have seen.
Price matching, with a catch
Will match a competitor's price — but only if they are fully legal: active CCB registration, workers' comp insurance, and Oregon Department of Agriculture chemical-operator licensing to apply moss treatment. These licensing requirements are real and required — Oregon requires anyone applying moss prevention or treatment to be licensed for it, and it is worth checking before you hire anyone.
Beyond price, we keep the work itself honest and gentle — a USA-made treatment with no zinc, no bleach, and no peroxide, and a clear explanation of exactly what we would do, so you always know what you are paying for.
Get three bids, not one
We'll point you to two other companies we consider fully legal and legitimate, so you can get three bids total before deciding. Most contractors don't recommend their own competition. We would rather you make an informed choice than a rushed one.
