cleaning soot of roof | Ask The Experts Forum

Guest User 8/16/2016	Hi. I have a fin al metal roof and after 25 years there seems to be a build up of soot from the wood stove chimney. I would like to know how to clean this as it is restricting the ability of snow to slide off the roof. Thanks for your consideration on this matter.
