Roof Cleaning and Roof Moss Removal

Dangers of excessive roof moss.

Excessive Moss, and algae growing on your roof not only looks unsightly and denigrates the appearance of your home but it also has far worse consequences:

Because moss is a natural organic growth it has the ability to absorb and retain water this can add up to one tonne per metre cube (m3). Clearly this can add unnecessary weight and stress to the overall roofing structure and its vital supports.

A roof structures under a load that it was not designed for will eventually start to buckle and warp. This buckling and warping can be frequently observed on many homes and buildings with heavy moss growth.

During the winter months moss saturated with water will expand as it freezes ,this natural expansion can lift and displace roofing tiles and slates

The natural expansion of Frozen moss between or under roof tiles will cause them to move and possible crush up against each other causing them to come loss, crack, or break

Mortar joints on your roof can be widened, splinted, caused to lift and come unstable and creating leaky joints and seals

Moss forming and freezing in between ridge tiles, hip and bonnet tiles will cause them to become detached from the roofing structure.

Roof moss can form a grip between thawing snow slipping down your roof you're your roof tiles and slates allowing them to be dragged down with the melting snows.

This all means water penetrates the roof space and causes damage!

How we do are roof cleaning?

Well where not just another roof cleaning company, Where different

Most roof cleaning companies use a high pressure power washer to do their roof cleaning

However, we leant a long time ago that high pressure roof cleaning machine can sometimes leave the roof in a less stable condition than before it was cleaned.

So we don't use a standard high pressure washer for our roof cleaning service.

Because we like to know that when we leave your roof we don't only leave it squeaky clean and protected from further moss and algae invasions for man years to come, It is also important that we also leave it in a stable condition.

So we use are own tried and tested low - medium pressure washer roof cleaning techniques that guarantee to get rid of unwanted moss and algae the save and reliable way,and one we have done that then we get to work on keeping it away for years to come
