Discover the top 10 roof maintenance tips from VGRC, LLC to protect your Spokane County home. Learn how soft washing, gutter care, and roof blow-offs extend your roof’s life.

Protect Your Roof Like a Pro – The Roof Ninja Way

Roofs across Spokane County—from Spokane Valley to Cheney and Liberty Lake—face constant attacks from the elements. Rain, snow, moss, algae, and yes, even pine needles all take their toll. But homeowners are not powerless. With smart care and routine maintenance, your roof can remain strong and spotless for years.

At Veracity Gutter And Roof Cleaning, LLC (VGRC, LLC), we’ve mastered the art of roof protection. So today, The Roof Ninja 🥷 and KC, The Pine Needle Warrior 👷‍♀️🍃, are sharing our Top 10 Roof Tips to keep Spokane County homes clean, safe, and protected—365 days a year!

1. Remove Roof Algae & Moss With Annual Soft Washing

Those black streaks aren’t just ugly—they’re a warning. Gloeocapsa magma and moss thrive in Spokane’s moist environment, feeding on shingles and shortening your roof’s lifespan.

🔥 The Fix: VGRC’s annual soft washing eliminates harmful bacteria, moss, and algae—preserving your shingles and restoring your roof’s original appearance.

2. Clear Pine Needles With Routine Roof Blow-Offs

Pine needles trap moisture and block drainage, especially in neighborhoods like Otis Orchards and Medical Lake. That leads to moss growth, leaks, and roof rot.

🔥 The Fix: Our expert roof blow-offs clear pine buildup fast, keeping Spokane County homes safe from moisture damage.

3. Clean Gutters to Prevent Roof & Foundation Damage

Clogged gutters don’t just spill over—they force water beneath shingles and into foundations.

🔥 The Fix: VGRC’s seasonal gutter cleaning ensures proper drainage and prevents fascia board rot, water backup, and foundation issues.

4. Book Annual Roof Inspections to Catch Hidden Issues

Hidden leaks, loose shingles, and soft spots go unnoticed—until it’s too late.

🔥 The Fix: Schedule a yearly roof inspection with VGRC to detect minor problems before they become costly disasters.

5. Trim Back Trees to Minimize Roof GUNK

Overhanging branches drop moss, leaves, and needles—accelerating roof decay and inviting pests.

🔥 The Fix: Keep trees trimmed at least 6–10 feet from your roofline to limit moisture buildup and reduce storm damage.

6. Avoid DIY Roof Cleaning – It’s Risky & Damaging

Roof cleaning without the right tools or technique risks shingle damage and serious falls.

🔥 The Fix: Trust VGRC’s professional team to clean your roof safely using soft washing and routine maintenance.

7. Improve Attic Ventilation to Prevent Mold & Heat Damage

Poor attic ventilation leads to trapped heat and moisture, causing mold, rot, and higher energy bills.

🔥 The Fix: Ensure your attic is ventilated properly to keep your roof system healthy and energy-efficient.

8. Prevent Ice Dams Before They Start

Spokane winters bring heavy snow. When melted snow can’t drain, it refreezes and forces water under shingles.

🔥 The Fix: Keep gutters clear, use approved de-icing methods, and contact VGRC for pre-winter prep.

9. Choose the Right Roof Material for Spokane’s Weather

Not all roofing is equal. The wrong material can lead to faster wear, moss growth, and heat absorption.

🔥 The Fix: Consult VGRC before replacing your roof. We’ll help you choose materials built for Spokane County’s climate.

10. Protect Your Home With Routine Roof Maintenance

Waiting until there’s a problem is the problem.

🔥 The Fix: Sign up for VGRC’s routine maintenance plan. We handle roof blow-offs, inspections, soft washing, and gutter care throughout the year—keeping Spokane County roofs damage-free.
