Algae Resistant Shingles

In places with lots of rain and snow like Minnesota, algae-resistant roof shingles are an important roofing material to have to keep your roof in good condition. Back 40 Roofing, northern Minnesota’s trusted local roofing company, offers high-quality Atlas shingles featuring Scotchgard protection against algae and mold growth.

Why Choose Algae Resistant Roof Shingles by Back 40 Roofing

Not only do the black streaks of algae look bad and lower property values, but these kinds of growth can actually damage roof materials. You want your new roof to look good and protect your home against weather, and the best way to do that is with premium roof shingles with algae-resistant properties.

  • What are the dangers of algae growth on your roof?

    Algae and mold growth damage your roof over time by breaking down the integrity of your shingles. Mold and vegetation add weight to your roof and hold water. High moisture affects roof decking and other important roofing materials and eventually causes leaks.

  • What are algae-resistant shingles?

    These roof shingles are just like premium asphalt shingles, only with additives and coatings that resist the growth of algae and mold. The algae-resistant properties can come from copper particles and special protective coatings.

  • How do these premium roof shingles work?

    Just like asphalt shingles, these roof shingles are made of layers of fiberglass matting, adhesives, and mineral granules. Copper particles are mixed in with mineral granules because of copper’s natural antimicrobial properties. Atlas Algae-Resistant Roof Shingles also have a protective coating made of specialized polymers from trusted manufacturer 3M.
