The Importance of Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles

Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles are a game-changer, when it comes to protecting your roof from discoloration and long-term damage,. Traditional asphalt shingles are prone to unsightly black streaks caused by airborne algae spores, particularly in humid and coastal climates. These streaks not only ruin a roof’s aesthetic but can also compromise its durability over time.

At LaxRee Roofing, our Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles are engineered with advanced technology to prevent algae growth, ensuring that your roof remains clean, durable, and visually appealing for years.

2️⃣ What Causes Roof Discoloration & Damage?

Roof discoloration is mainly caused by Gloeocapsa Magma, a type of blue-green algae that thrives in humid environments. This airborne algae settles on roofs, feeding on moisture and organic materials in shingles, leading to:

• Black streaks and stains that degrade curb appeal.
• Moisture retention, which accelerates shingle deterioration.
• Reduced energy efficiency, as dark stains absorb more heat.
• Shortened roof lifespan, leading to frequent replacements.

To combat this issue, Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles from LaxRee Roofing incorporate innovative granule technology that inhibits algae growth before it starts.

3️⃣ How Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles Work

LaxRee Roofing’s Algae-Resistant Asphalt Shingles are designed with copper-infused granules that actively prevent algae growth. Here’s how they work:

🔹 Copper-Infused Roofing Granules

• Embedded in the shingle surface to release copper ions over time.
• Creates an environment where algae spores cannot thrive.
• Prevents dark streaks, ensuring a clean and new-looking roof.

🔹 Water-Resistant & UV-Protected

• Reduces moisture absorption to prevent mold, mildew, and decay.
• Reflects UV rays to enhance durability and maintain energy efficiency.

🔹 Long-Lasting Performance

• Designed to withstand harsh weather conditions including rain, storms, and extreme sunlight.
• Backed by LaxRee Roofing’s premium warranties for lasting protection.
