Roof Cleaning

Moss on a roof is not only a look. It holds water against the tile, lifts at the edges in frost, and ends up in the gutter as the silt that blocks it. We clear it by pressure wash or soft wash, depending on the tile, because old clay and concrete tiles need a gentler hand than a modern roof.

What you get

Taking moss off a roof is cheaper than the damage it does.

A tile under a moss mat stays wet. Through a cold snap that water freezes, expands and works at the tile from the surface in. Clearing it is ordinary maintenance; letting it go for another decade is a re-roof.

  • Moss and lichen cleared from tiles and ridges
  • Pressure washing or soft washing, chosen to suit the tile
  • Gutters cleared afterwards, because the debris ends up in them
  • Flat roofs and garage roofs washed down
  • Any slipped or cracked tiles reported with photographs

Service overview

Pressure wash or soft wash? We match it to the roof.

High pressure takes moss off a roof very quickly, but on older tiles it can take the weathered surface with it. On concrete tiles that surface is what stops them soaking up water. So we look at the tile first, set the pressure to suit, and soft wash where the roof needs a gentler touch.

Pressure needs care at the laps

Tiles are designed to shed water running downwards. A lance aimed upwards can force it under the overlap and into the roof space, so we work with the laps, not against them.

Soft washing lasts longer

Treating the roof kills what is left behind rather than just removing what is visible, so it stays clear for years rather than months.

Nobody needs to walk the roof

Walking tiles cracks them. We work from a ladder and poles wherever the roof allows it.

How we do it

Roof Cleaning in Enfield, start to finish.

  1. 1

    We assess from the ground and above

    We look at the tile type and the state of the ridge before quoting, because a clay roof and a modern concrete one are not the same job.

  2. 2

    We clear, then soft wash

    The bulk of the moss comes off mechanically. What is left is treated so the spores do not simply start again next spring.

  3. 3

    We clear up after ourselves

    Moss off a roof lands in the gutters and on the drive. Both get cleared before we leave, and that is part of the price.

Choosing the right option

Options that suit your property.

Every property is different. We tell you which of these actually suits yours, and say so when the cheaper option is the sensible one.

Moss clear and soft wash

Best for: Tiled pitched roofs

The full job: moss off, treatment on, gutters cleared afterwards.

Flat roof wash

Best for: Extensions and garage roofs

Felt and fibreglass roofs washed down, with any standing debris and silt cleared out of the outlets.

Roof and gutters together

Best for: Most houses

The two are related jobs. Doing them together is cheaper and means the debris we take off the roof does not sit in the gutter.

Yes. We pressure wash roofs, and soft wash where the tiles need a gentler touch. We look at the tile type and its condition first so the method suits the roof, then clear the gutters of what comes down.
