Cedar Roof Cleaning

Sullivan Roof Cleaning is incredible, well, Mr. Sullivan is actually. We were hopeful that he would be able to bring life back to our roof, but I had no idea how great a job he would ultimately do.

Mr. Sullivan used his proprietary mix of fungicide, moldicide to renew the roof to nearly new condition. Watching him work, I can confirm he uses low pressure to sluff off all the black mold and moss growing on cedar. Many people have stopped by to tell us how great the job turned out.

Having been a builder, I can write it is rare to find an honest person in home repair, but Mr. Sullivan is the real deal.

If you have a cedar roof or siding, by all means take the time and small expense to breathe new life into it by having Mr. Sullivan clean it for you. I couldn’t be happier with the results and the fact that he raised the property value without my having to spend many thousands of dollars to install a new roof.

Put simply, you can’t afford not to call Sullivan Roof Cleaning for your house.

Testimonials

What can I say? Bruce and Keith provided an exceptional service, and they are really nice guys too. Found out at the last minute they were in Minneapolis, and they fit me in for a cedar shake roof cleaning the next evening after their regular job was done. Even cleaned up my gutters, small fence, and small deck at no charge. The place looks outstanding! Highly recommended.

I highly recommend this business. Due to the work performed we are going to get another 10-14 years out of our cedar shake roof. We were told by some roofing companies that the roof should be replaced in 2 years. I lucked out and found Sullivan Roof Cleaning while researching companies that perform this service, and was pleased to learn that the company does work outside of Iowa. If you need your cedar shakes cleaned, go with Sullivan Roof Cleaning.

Bruce did a great job cleaning the whole exterior of my house. The roof has new life! It looks practically brand new. All the mold and moss on the roof, on the gutters, under the eaves, completely gone. He exceeded all our expectations. When he tells you what he can do for your house, you can believe and trust him. Great guy, great service.
