b. Client understands that Company uses a cleaning solution designed to kill damaging growths such as algae, moss, or lichen. Results may vary based on the roof’s materials, age, location, and amount of build-up.

If traces do not fade within this timeframe, Client should contact Company to assess the situation. Any reapplication of the solution will be determined at that time, and touch-ups will not incur additional charges if deemed necessary for proper treatment as per the initial quote.
