Preservation
Cedar roof treatment can greatly extend the life expectancy of your cedar roof. ZK Cedar Roof Coatings offers an all-encompassing preservation and maintenance program to keep your home looking its best as well as to alert you when repairs are necessary
ZK Ceder Roof Coatings’ highly trained staff professionally removes moss, mold, mildew, fungus, and debris from your cedar roof, restoring it to a clean natural wood color without damaging the structure of the roofing material. The thin layers of wood cells that have been pulverized by Ultra Violet rays (UV) are removed, revealing the true beauty of your cedar roof.
Once cleaned, the wood can then be treated to guard against mildew, mold, fungus, and UV Damage. In addition to inhibiting the growth of fungus, our product also protects and rejuvenates the lubricity and repellency lost due to weather and time, thus adding years to the life of your roof.
Preservation Process
Your roof will be thoroughly washed using product Cedar Wash, which is a 100% percent eco-friendly hydrogen peroxide-based formulation. Washing will remove any built up dirt, mold, mildew, and algae. After the wash, our experienced technicians will walk around your house to determine whether touch ups, such as recaulking the column bases, need to be done. We’ll check your house from the foundation and give recommendations in order to keep your roof looking fresh and new.
If during the wash process, we have discovered any compromised shingles, we’ll replace up to 20 at no additional cost to you.
However, sometimes in particular areas of the roof, some shingles can may be compromised. At this time, we’ll provide you with an estimate to replace any shingles that didn’t withstand the wash process due to their weakness.
Keep in mind, curled shingles don’t necessarily have to be replaced. If there are any curled shingles that you’d like us to replace for aesthetic purposes, please let us know.
Within a few days (depending on weather) we’ll return to hand apply* our preservation product. This product protects and enhances the integrity of new and old wood, as well as penetrates deeply into the wood – which highlights grain patterns with beautiful clarity. The product also repels water, stops UV damage, prevents wood rot, and eliminates mold and mildew.
*The hand application is necessary for the deepest product penetration
