What Are The Black Stains On My Roof?

A type of algae, known as Gloeocapsa Magma, causes the damaging black stains on asphalt shingles. This type of algae thrives in the humidity that we have here in Arkansas. The algae feeds on the crushed limestone additive in asphalt shingles making your roof the perfect environment for the algae to grow. Rain spreads the algae down the roof causing the black streaks to spread at a rapid rate. These streaks not only hurt your homes curb appeal but ultimately will cause the shingles to fail prematurely by not allowing the shingles to reflect heat properly.
