On the coast, every roof grows moss eventually — the north side first, in stripes you can spot from the street. Most homeowners look at it for a few years before anyone touches it.
The problem isn't how it looks. Moss soaks up the rain and holds it against the shingles, and over time it can work under the edges and lift them. And the quick fix is the worst one: the shingle manufacturers themselves warn never to put a pressure washer on an asphalt roof — it strips the protective surface off. A proper crew soft-washes, treats the moss so it dies at the root, and clears the gutters after.
And it's not just about how it looks from the street. Water damage is now the leading cause of home-insurance claims in Canada — Allstate Canada says it made up more than 40% of its home claims over the last five years, and Insurance Bureau of Canada data puts the average claim north of $23,000 — and a roof holding moisture under a mat of moss is one of the places it can start. It's why BC home inspectors flag mossy roofs, and why the smart move is dealing with it while it's still a cleaning job, not a roofing job.
