My Roof is Unmaintainable. Do I Need to Re-Roof?
If you’ve been told by someone in town that your roof is shot and you need to re-roof, give Roof Life of Oregon a call for a second opinion. You could save yourself thousands of dollars just by waiting a few years.
We know there are some folks out there that want to take advantage of people. They’re going to tell you to put a new roof on your house just because they know you really don’t know the difference. But we’re not those folks. We’re a roof maintenance company that replaces roofs when they finally wear out.
If we come out to your home for a well-care checkup and find that your roof is unmaintainable, that doesn’t mean we’re going to tell you to replace it right away. You might be able to wait two to five years without doing anything. Sometimes working on a roof when it’s close to a shot could send it backward, forcing you into re-roofing prematurely. So you might just get to wait it out without doing any maintenance at all. In a few years, whenever the roof is completely worn out and you feel good about it, call the office, let the front office know that we were there a couple of years ago, and get on our replacement specialist’s schedule. We’ll then do a full attic inspection and quote you any roof you’d like.
We look at about thirty roofs a day and they are all at different degrees of degradation. Some are completely worn out, some have a few years left, and some just need a good well-care program to that they can look beautiful and stay healthy for years to come.

Portland Area Roof Cleaning
Don’t worry, we’ll do the dirty work! Cleaning and protecting a roof is a dangerous job. One of our Portland roof cleaning technicians will be happy to do the difficult work for you.
First, if there are any pre-existing conditions present, such as missing shakes, shingles, or tiles; a hole; soft spots; or leaks, we will suggest a preliminary repair. We will then get to work thoroughly cleaning your roof using quality products and time-tested techniques to help maintain your roof and lengthen its lifespan.
During our cleaning services, we will also thoroughly clean your gutters and remove any moss we find. This can help prevent heavy puddles and leaks, maintain the structure of your roof, and prevent deterioration.
Our residential roof cleaning process includes:
- A Gentler Method: Roofs with heavy debris and moderate growth of moss and fungus can be maintained by compressed air that will blow off all tree debris. We will then repair any damage uncovered and apply a self-cleaning treatment.
- Self-Cleaning: Roofs that sit in the open may suffer from moss and fungus growth and direct sun exposure. Our exclusive products can help maintained your roof without pressure washing.
- The Dennco Difference: Our roofing company has the exclusive license for the Portland area to use Dennco Chemical Company’s patented shake, composition, and tile preservatives. These chemicals are non-toxic, environmentally-friendly, and highly effective at extending the life of your roof by killing moss and fungus and keeping them from coming back. Roof cleaning has never been easier than with Dennco!
How Often Do I Need a Roof Cleaning?
This is a common question from local homeowners. For asphalt and tile, you should schedule a cleaning every three years. Cedar should be cleaned every five years, depending on your home’s unique environment. Your home needs a sensible roof maintenance program, which is why we recommend a free well-care roof inspection every three to five years.
Roof Life of Oregon is happy to inspect your roof for potential maintenance problems at no cost or obligation to you. And we only recommend repairs or replacement when absolutely necessary.
If you live under and around trees, we will give you a yearly reminder to have the debris blown off of their roof and out of gutters. In between roof inspections, call us if you hear a thud on your roof, see something out of the ordinary, or find shakes or shingles in your yard.
