Zinc strips are supposed to help keep moss in check, but they are not permanent protection.
This roof was a good reminder of why the parts homeowners cannot easily see still matter. The zinc had lifted and separated while moss kept growing underneath and around it. From the ground, you would never know.
That is why we look at the whole roof, not just the green patches.
If your roof has zinc strips and you are still seeing moss, send us a photo. We will tell you what we see.
