Roof Cleaning in Northwich

What we see on Northwich roof cleaning jobs

Northwich is a river-valley town, and the roofs never quite dry out. The Weaver and the Dane meet here, the flashes and meres left by the old salt workings sit either side of the town, and the mist that hangs over them in autumn and winter settles on every roof from the terraces around Castle and Leftwich to the estates at Rudheath and Lostock Gralam. Add the mature trees that Northwich is known for — the avenues of Hartford and Davenham, the woodland edge at Marbury and toward Anderton — and you have shaded, damp slopes where moss thickens along every course. On the concrete tiles of the post-war and 1970s semis it forms fat cushions that hold water against the tile and drop into the gutters in lumps; on the older slate and clay roofs it collects in the valleys and behind chimneys. Our roof cleaning in Northwich is done by hand from the ridge — scrapers and brushes, never a pressure washer, which would lift tiles and drive water beneath them — followed by a full clear of the gutters and downpipes and, where you want it, a biocide treatment so a roof clean lasts on a roof that will always be damp.
