What is covered

Roof cleaning services

Methods differ for tiles, slates and older roofs, so the covering decides the approach.

Roof moss removal

Clear heavy growth and reduce moss debris reaching gutters.

Manual moss removal

Use appropriate tools where suitable for the roof covering.

Roof tile cleaning

Address dirt and biological staining using material-appropriate methods.

Slate roof cleaning

Take extra care with fragile slates and fixings.

Roof soft washing

Use suitable low-pressure methods where appropriate.

Algae and lichen removal

Assess the roof material and the nature of the growth before treatment.

Biocide treatments

Suitable products may help control regrowth but cannot guarantee permanent prevention.

Gutter cleaning

Remove moss and leaf debris that may obstruct drainage.

Good to know

Cleaning can reveal problems too

Cleaning can improve appearance and reveal defects such as broken tiles or failed flashing. That is useful, but it also means a clean roof is a good moment to deal with any repairs it shows up.

Questions

Roof Moss Removal and Cleaning: common questions

Does moss damage tiles?

It can retain moisture and contribute to debris build-up, especially around gutters and valleys.

Should moss be removed?

Heavy growth may warrant removal, particularly near drainage.

Is pressure washing always safe?

No. It can damage certain roofing materials, which is why the method is matched to the roof.

Can slate roofs be cleaned?

Sometimes, using suitable methods and with extra care for fragile slates and fixings.

Can moss grow back?

Yes, particularly in shaded and damp areas. Treatments may help control regrowth but cannot guarantee it will not return.

Do you clean gutters?

Yes. Gutter cleaning is part of our roof cleaning service.

Can cleaning reveal damage?

Yes. It may uncover broken tiles or defective flashing that were hidden by growth.
