CertainTeed Shingles

Streak Fighter Protection

Take a look around at the roofs in your neighborhood.  Are there dark streaks or discolored patches on the shingles?  What you are looking at isn’t dirt.  It won’t wash off.  Nor is it moss or fungus.  It’s airborne algae.  Blue-green algae, which is commonly incorrectly called “fungus” can create unsightly streaking on shingles.  It appears on roofing surfaces throughout the U.S. and Canada and once it’s on your roof, getting it off is no easy matter.

Protect Your Roof

Now you can stamp out unsightly black algae roof stains before they have a chance to ruin your roof’s appearance thanks to CertainTeed’s line of algae-resistant shingles with StreakFighter protection.

The Advantage

Your roof maintains its natural luster and beauty free of unsightly splotches while providing you with the unparalleled level of performance you’d expect from a CertainTeed roof – today and for decades to come.

How Does Streak Fighter Protection Work?

To make shingles resistant to algae, a unique layer of copper oxide, an ingredient with proven algicidal properties, is placed between the mineral core and the ceramic pigment coating.  These copper-containing granules are uniformly dispersed throughout the shingle’s exposed surface.  The copper leaches gradually over time, providing reliable, long-term protection to the shingle against algae attack.

Need a Roof Repair or Roof Replacement?

This is the question that homeowners often face when it comes to roofing problems. While repairs can extend the life of your roof, they’ll only take you so far. Here are some tips and things to think about when you are giving your roof a self-evaluation. This will help give you an idea if you should get a roof repair or a roof replacement. Your roof is the first line of defense against the elements, which is why you need a healthy roof.

When was the last time your roof was evaluated?

Signs of damage usually start small, but when ignored for a long period of time, serious structural damage to your property can occur. If you do not know the last time you had a professional contractor inspect your roof, we suggest you have someone at Woods Roofing come to your home or business to give you a free estimate and inspection for your new roof! We will be able to determine if there is storm damage or natural wear and tear to your roof that makes it vulnerable to South Dakota weather conditions. Hail, high winds, heavy rain, snow, and other elements from Mother Nature are all things that can cause damage to your roof such as granule loss, shingle bruising, lifted or blown-off shingles, leaky roofs, and damaged gutters to name a few.

​If you do not want to have someone come out to evaluate and inspect your roof for you, you can do it yourself with a few simple questions: Roof Evaluation Guide.
