The Problem: Why Moss Destroys BC Roofs

BC's climate is perfect for moss growth—constant moisture, shade from trees, and moderate temperatures. But moss isn't just ugly; it's actively destroying your roof.

  • Root Penetration

    Moss roots penetrate shingles, breaking them apart and creating leaks.

  • Water Retention

    Moss holds moisture against your roof, accelerating rot and mold growth.

  • Structural Weight

    Heavy moss buildup adds weight that can stress your roof structure.
