Roof Cleaning

It has been three years since our homes had their roofs cleaned in the winter of 2020. The work was completed by Trafford Pressure. At that point in time, the Masters HOA was responsible for contracting with a company and paying for the cleaning.

In 2021, we voted as a community to no longer have the HOA hold that responsibility.

Several homes have been cited by the Pelican Sound Architectural Review Committee as having dirty roofs. When a homeowner receives a citation, it is the homeowner`s responsibility to respond to Denise Williams, executive assistant with PSGRC, the plan to rectify the situation. An exemption can be made if the roof has been cleaned in the past three years or if the roof is less than three years old.

Therefore, Frankly Coastal and ARC chairman, Celeste Eaton, solicited bids from two companies, Trafford Pressure and Aquaman, with the purpose of obtaining a discount rate if a number of homeowners from the Masters would contract for roof cleaning at the same time. The board chose to accept the bid from Trafford Pressure. The cost for each home is based on Trafford Pressures prior experience in the Masters, relative to the square footage of the roofs.

For the Grand Cypress, Ridgewood and Sabel model roofs will cost $324 if 1 to 10 homes request cleaning. If over 10 homes request cleaning, the price will drop to $316.

For the Greenbriars and Tammarron model roofs will cost $384 if 1 to 10 homes request cleaning. If over 10 homes request cleaning, the price will drop to $373.

The above prices are contingent on the number of homes that contract for roof cleaning.

To sign up for this offer, each homeowner needs to communicate with Trafford Pressure directly. Their number is 239-593-0640.

Trafford asks that you call them prior to November 15.

Trafford Pressure will begin the cleaning process in December.

The Masters Board and Frankly Coastal have no responsibility or liability in the process with Trafford.

Each homeowner is responsible for communicating with Trafford and is solely responsible for the payment to Trafford involving the service rendered to their home.
