Your Local Roofing Contractor in Shoreview
Total Home Exteriors serves Shoreview, MN, a Ramsey County suburb known for its lakes and heavily wooded, established neighbourhoods. The combination of water and dense tree canopy is the practical factor here: shaded roof slopes stay damp and are prone to moss and algae, gutters load heavily every autumn, and homes near open water take wind more directly than sheltered interior streets. Shoreview's housing is established rather than new, so most homes are on at least their second roof. We handle roofing, siding, windows, insulation, gutters, ice dam steaming, and storm and hail damage restoration across the city.
Why is moss growing on my Shoreview roof?
Shade and moisture. Heavily wooded lots keep north-facing slopes from ever drying properly, and moss and algae take hold in exactly those conditions. The growth holds water against the shingle surface, which shortens its life.
Do not pressure wash it off — that strips granules and drives water under the shingles. Algae-resistant shingles at the next replacement, plus trimming limbs back to let light and air onto the slope, is the durable answer.
Do lakeside homes need anything different?
Mainly attention to wind and drainage. Wind crossing open water hits a lakeside roof harder, so edge fastening at rakes and ridges matters more than it does inland.
At ground level, gutters and downspouts have to actually move water away from the foundation rather than discharging beside it — a point that matters more on properties where the water table is already high.
