Roof Cleaning

Moss-covered roof cleaned and refreshed before the customer put the house up for sale

The moss was cleared from the tiles, the roof surface was cleaned down carefully, and the customer was given an honest view on what a biocide treatment would and would not do.

The job

What needed doing

The customer had noticed thick moss building up across the roof tiles, and it was starting to make the whole house look tired from the road. With a sale coming up, they wanted the roof cleaned up so it looked cared for, plus a straight answer on whether it was worth treating to slow the moss coming back.

The roof looked noticeably cleaner and better kept for viewings, and the customer understood that moss can return over time and a treatment slows it rather than stopping it for good.

Work completed

Planned safe access and checked the roof and tiles before starting
Removed the moss build-up from the tiles by hand and brush rather than heavy pressure
Cleaned down the roof surface and cleared loosened debris from the gutters below
Applied an optional biocide treatment to help slow regrowth and explained what to expect

Customer benefits

Freshens a tired-looking roof and lifts overall kerb appeal
Removes moss that traps damp against the tiles
Optional biocide helps slow how quickly the moss returns

Worth dealing with early

Thick moss holds moisture against tiles and can shorten their life
Loose moss washes into gutters and downpipes and blocks drainage
Left long enough, a mossy roof looks neglected and can put buyers off
