Why clean your roof?

Moss is not just untidy — it is expensive

Your roof is your home's first line of defence, and also the most neglected part of it.

  • Moss holds water like a sponge, keeping tiles constantly damp and causing erosion, cracking and frost damage each winter.
  • As moss dries it detaches and falls into gutters, blocking them and causing overflow, damp patches and mould inside your home.
  • Growth spreads onto patios, conservatories and driveways, making the whole property look unkempt.
  • A clean roof transforms how a house looks from the street — especially in a row of houses or before a sale.
  • Regular maintenance extends the life of the roof and avoids the far higher cost of repairs or replacement.

Moss

The most common problem on UK tiled roofs. It thrives on damp, shaded, north-facing slopes, holds water like a sponge, causes frost damage, loosens tiles and blocks gutters as it falls.

Algae

Dark green or black streaks and stains, most often on concrete tiles and slate. It rarely damages tiles directly but ruins the look of a home and usually leads to moss if it is left.

Lichen

Hard crusty white, grey or orange patches. More stubborn than moss or algae, it grows slowly on older roofs and can etch into the tile surface if left untreated.

Grime & pollution

Dust, soot, bird droppings and traffic pollution build up on roadside and town properties, dulling the colour of the roof and speeding up staining.

Our methods

The best way to clean a roof in Somerset

Each method has its pros and cons. We assess your tiles and the level of growth, then recommend what is safest and most effective for your property.

Our preferred method when suitable

Low-pressure wash & biocide

When your tiles are suitable we use a flat surface cleaner rather than a lance, so the water pressure is spread evenly and gently. The only thing that touches your tiles is water, and the improvement is instant.

  • Gentler on tiles than scraping, with no metal tools on your roof
  • Cleaned from mobile scaffold towers at the correct angle, never from the ground
  • Fewer chemicals needed thanks to the immediate physical cleaning effect
  • Instant visual improvement, ideal before selling your home

Best for light algae and staining

Softwash chemical clean & biocide

A low-pressure chemical treatment that kills organic growth and lightens staining. Ideal for lightly soiled or more delicate roofs, or as follow-up maintenance after a full clean.

  • Very little physical strain on tiles
  • Treats algae, lichen and general discolouration
  • Applied with care to protect plants, paintwork and surrounding areas
  • Not the best choice on its own for very thick moss

Available on request

Scrape & biocide treatment

Moss is physically scraped off by hand and a biocide is then applied to kill the remaining spores. It is often seen as the safest option, but in our experience metal tools can crack or dislodge brittle and weathered tiles.

  • No water or chemicals during the initial removal
  • Effective at lifting thick visible layers of moss
  • Labour-intensive, so usually more expensive
  • Higher risk of tile damage on older roofs — we will always explain the options

What is biocide, and why do we use it?

Biocide is a professional-grade treatment that kills moss, algae and lichen at root level. It is applied after cleaning so any remaining spores are destroyed. We only use HSE-approved products, they keep working for up to 12 months, and they typically prevent regrowth for 2 to 5 years depending on shade and exposure.
