About This Service

Cleaned Properly, Without Wrecking The Tiles

We clean roofs the safe way: inspect first, remove loose growth by hand or soft wash, then apply a biocide that kills the algae, lichen and moss at the root so it doesn't just grow straight back. Gutters get cleared of the debris as part of the job.

What we don't do is blast a roof with a high-pressure jet. Pressure washing can erode the tile surface, strip its protective granules and force water underneath, and it only gives a short-term result. As roofers, not just cleaners, we treat your roof gently and flag any defects we find.

What It Involves

How We Clean A Roof

A careful, roof-safe process, not a quick blast that looks good for a month and damages the tiles.

Inspection FirstWe check the covering, flashings and ridges before we start, because cleaning can expose pre-existing faults.
Low-Pressure Soft WashLoose growth removed gently, without the tile-stripping force of a high-pressure jet.
Biocide TreatmentA fungicidal wash that kills algae, lichen and moss at the root, so it's slower to return.
Gutter & Downpipe ClearLoosened debris cleared from gutters and downpipes so it doesn't wash down and block them.
Debris & Run-Off ControlWe protect drains and planting and manage the run-off, rather than letting it go everywhere.
Honest On CoatingsWe won't hard-sell a roof coating you don't need. A coating is not a substitute for repairs or a clean.

Good To Know

Soft Wash, Not Pressure Wash

There's a reason we don't jet-wash roofs. High pressure can crack and erode tiles, strip the protective surface, and drive water under the covering, and once the spores are still there, the green comes back fast. Soft washing plus a biocide is gentler and lasts longer.

You'll also hear a lot about roof coatings after a clean. Sometimes they have a place; often they're oversold as a cure-all. We'll give you a straight answer about whether your roof actually needs one, rather than a pitch, and we'll always start with the roof's condition.

Cleaning is cosmetic and protective in equal measure, and it is not the same job as moss removal: one is a wash, the other saves tiles. Both go wrong when someone reaches for a pressure washer.

Roof Cleaning Questions, Answered

Not the way we do it. Low-pressure soft washing is gentle on tiles. It's high-pressure jet-washing that risks cracking tiles, stripping the surface and forcing water underneath, which is exactly why we don't do it. We also inspect for defects first.

Yes, that's our standard method. We use low-pressure soft washing and a biocide rather than a high-pressure jet, because it's safer for the roof and the results last longer.

Because a biocide kills the growth at the root rather than just blasting off the surface, a soft-wash clean stays looking better for longer. In shaded, wooded spots the growth returns more slowly with a biocide than without.

Coatings can have a place on some roofs, but they're often oversold as a cure-all and are no substitute for repairs. We'll give you an honest view of whether yours needs one, starting from the roof's actual condition, not a sales script.

Yes. Clearing the gutters and downpipes of the loosened debris is part of the job, otherwise it just washes down and blocks the drainage.
