Common Questions
How often should I have my roof cleaned?+
Every 3–5 years typically; properties with overhanging trees may need more frequent attention.
Will cleaning damage my tiles?+
No, we use safe soft-wash methods suited to tile or slate, and controlled pressure only where appropriate.
Does moss damage a roof?+
Yes. Moss retains moisture and can lift tiles or cause cracking over time if left untreated.
How long does a roof clean take?+
A typical three-bedroom house takes a day; larger properties may take longer depending on access and condition.
Will the moss grow back after treatment?+
Biocide significantly inhibits regrowth; occasional maintenance will keep the roof clear.
