WHY MOSS DAMAGES GUTTERS & RAIN CHAINS
THE HIDDEN DANGERS OF MOSS GROWTH
Understanding how moss damages your gutter system helps explain why regular treatment is essential for protecting your home:
MOSS DAMAGE TO GUTTERS
- Water Blockage - Moss growth restricts water flow, causing overflow and water damage
- Added Weight - Moss retains water, adding significant weight to gutters
- Accelerated Corrosion - Trapped moisture speeds up metal deterioration
- Joint Separation - Extra weight can pull gutters away from fascia boards
- Ice Dam Formation - Moss creates barriers that promote ice dam formation in winter
"Moss in gutters is the leading cause of premature gutter system failure that we see in the Pacific Northwest." - Professional Gutter Installer
MOSS DAMAGE TO RAIN CHAINS
Decorative rain chains are particularly vulnerable to moss damage:
- Aesthetic Degradation - Moss growth obscures the beautiful design of rain chains
- Water Flow Disruption - Moss blocks the channels that guide water down the chain
- Patina Interference - Prevents natural patina development on copper rain chains
- Increased Maintenance - Requires frequent cleaning to maintain appearance
- Reduced Lifespan - Accelerates wear on chain links and decorative elements
PREVENTATIVE SOLUTION
Step 1: Initial Application
Apply Roof & Gutter Moss Eliminator at a rate of 1 pound per 100 square feet of roof surface. Focus on areas where moss is visible and ensure even coverage across the roof, gutters, and around rain chain installations.
Step 2: Activation Period
Allow 2-3 weeks for the product to work as rain naturally distributes the treatment across your roof and gutter system. The zinc-based formula gradually eliminates moss without requiring scrubbing or pressure washing.
Step 3: Maintenance Schedule
For ongoing protection, apply every 6-12 months depending on your local climate. Properties in heavily wooded or rainy areas may require more frequent application. Regular treatment prevents moss from returning and protects your entire drainage system.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I remove moss from my roof and gutters?
To remove moss from your roof and gutters: 1) Apply Roof & Gutter Moss Eliminator according to directions, using 1 pound per 100 square feet of roof surface; 2) Allow the product to work for 2-3 weeks as rain naturally rinses it through the affected areas; 3) For heavy moss buildup, a second application may be necessary; 4) For preventative maintenance, apply once every 6-12 months depending on your climate. The zinc-based formula works gradually to eliminate moss without damaging your roofing materials or gutters.
What causes moss growth on roofs and in gutters?
Moss grows on roofs and in gutters due to several factors: 1) Moisture retention in shaded areas; 2) Organic debris like leaves and twigs that collect and decompose; 3) North-facing roof sections that receive less sunlight; 4) Humid climates with frequent rainfall; 5) Overhanging trees that block sunlight and drop debris; 6) Porous roofing materials that trap moisture. Moss becomes problematic because it absorbs water like a sponge, leading to water damage, rot, and potential leaks as it lifts shingles and blocks water flow in gutters.
Is moss eliminator safe for rain chains and metal gutters?
Yes, our Roof & Gutter Moss Eliminator is specifically formulated to be safe for all gutter systems, including metal gutters, aluminum gutters, copper gutters, and decorative rain chains. The zinc-based formula works effectively against moss without causing corrosion or discoloration to metal components. It's also safe for use with asphalt shingles, cedar shakes, clay tiles, and most roofing materials. Always follow the application instructions and rinse decorative elements like copper rain chains with clean water after treatment for best results and to maintain their appearance.
How often should I apply moss eliminator to my roof and gutters?
Application frequency depends on your local climate and conditions: 1) For preventative maintenance in moderate climates, apply once per year, typically in early spring; 2) In heavily wooded or humid areas prone to moss growth, apply every 6 months; 3) After initial moss removal, maintain with applications every 6-12 months; 4) For properties in rainy, Pacific Northwest regions, quarterly applications may be necessary; 5) Monitor north-facing roof sections and shaded areas more frequently. One 16-pound container treats approximately 1,600 square feet of roof surface and provides long-lasting protection against moss regrowth.
Will moss eliminator prevent gutter clogs and water damage?
Yes, Roof & Gutter Moss Eliminator helps prevent gutter clogs and water damage in several ways: 1) It eliminates moss that can block water flow in gutters; 2) It prevents moss from lifting shingles and creating entry points for water; 3) It reduces organic buildup that contributes to clogging; 4) It extends the life of your gutter system by preventing corrosion and damage from standing water; 5) It helps maintain proper water flow through downspouts and rain chains. Regular application as part of your home maintenance routine significantly reduces the risk of water damage and costly repairs.
CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
I installed beautiful copper cup rain chains last year and was devastated when I noticed moss starting to grow on them. After using this product, the moss disappeared within weeks without damaging the copper. Six months later and my rain chains still look beautiful with no moss in sight. I now apply it twice a year as preventative maintenance.
Jennifer D.

As a professional gutter installer, I recommend this product to all my customers, especially those who choose decorative rain chains. It's the most effective moss prevention product I've found that's safe for all gutter materials. I include a container with every rain chain installation as part of my service package. My callbacks for moss-related issues have dropped to almost zero.

Our home is surrounded by tall trees that constantly drop debris onto our roof. We were having serious moss problems in our gutters and on our decorative aluminum rain chains. After using this product, the difference was remarkable. Application was simple, and we've seen no negative effects on our rain chains or gutters. Now we apply it every spring and fall as part of our regular home maintenance.
