Zinc Strip Installation
After a roof cleaning, appropriately installed zinc strips near the roof ridge can help slow the return of moss and algae. Rainwater carries trace amounts of zinc down over portions of the roof below the strip, creating conditions less favorable to biological growth. ABCC Services installs zinc strips for homeowners in Boston, Lowell, Middlesex County, Nashua, and Southern New Hampshire.
Zinc strips are a practical follow-up to roof cleaning. As rain flows over the strip, it picks up small amounts of zinc and distributes them across the roof surface below. This can help reduce regrowth in areas the runoff reaches, though coverage depends on roof design, pitch, and rainfall patterns. Zinc strips reduce regrowth but do not guarantee permanent prevention — periodic inspection and maintenance remain important.
