What our customers say
Our reputation around Glastonbury has been built on 5-star results, recommendations and repeat customers. Here are the latest reviews, straight from Google.
Residential & commercial
We clean stone cottages, period townhouses and 20th-century homes across Glastonbury, removing moss, algae and lichen with safe, non-damaging methods. Whether you want to restore the look of your roof, stop blocked gutters and damp, or lift kerb appeal before selling, full care and clean-up come included.
For landlords, letting agents, care homes, schools and business premises in and around Glastonbury. Every job is risk-assessed and fully insured up to £10 million, with before-and-after photos and minimal disruption.
Local roofs
Glastonbury has a high share of older stone homes with weathered clay tiles and natural slate. These tiles can be brittle, so we work from scaffold towers and favour softwash or very low pressure, letting the biocide do the long-term work.
Glastonbury has a high proportion of older homes with weathered clay tiles and natural slate, which need a gentler touch than modern concrete. We never walk on fragile roofs or attack them with a lance — the tower goes up, the pressure comes down, and the biocide does the long-term work.
We also clean roofs in the villages around Glastonbury, including Street, Baltonsborough, Meare, Butleigh.
Our methods
No single method suits every Glastonbury roof. We look at the tile type, age and level of growth, then explain whether a low-pressure clean, softwash or biocide treatment is best.
Our preferred method when suitable
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.
Best for light algae and staining
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.
Available on request
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.
What's included
What we remove
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.
