A quick blast with a pressure washer looks better for a month then grows straight back, and it can crack the tiles and strip the surface. We do it properly: scrape the moss off by hand, work safely from scaffolding rather than ladders, and finish with a biocide treatment that kills the spores so the roof stays clear for years, not weeks. It is one of our most common jobs on the older estate homes and the tree-lined roads around the patch.
We put up scaffolding so the roof is worked safely, then scrape the moss off the tiles by hand. No pressure washing that cracks tiles or strips the surface.
The scraped moss comes down, the gutters are cleared of the debris, and the ground is left clean. You see the roof before and after.
A biocide is applied to kill the remaining spores. This is the step that keeps the roof clear, and it is why our cleans last rather than greening up again by next winter.
Roof cleaning is priced on the size and pitch of the roof and how much scaffolding it needs, so we give you a fixed price up front, usually from a few photos without a site visit. As a guide:
Because the biocide does the long-term work, keeping a roof clear costs far less than the first clean. Once it is done, a periodic top-up treatment holds it.
The roof is worked from proper scaffolding, safely and thoroughly, not from a ladder balanced against the gutter.
The biocide kills the spores, so the roof stays clear for years. A pressure-wash-only job is green again within a season.
You get a firm number up front, most of the time without a site visit. No surprises once the scaffold is up.

It depends on the size and pitch of the roof and the scaffolding needed. You get a fixed price up front, usually from a few photos without a site visit.
Not for a long time, because we finish with a biocide that kills the spores. That is the difference between our clean and a pressure-wash-only job, which greens up again within a season. When a roof does eventually need a refresh, a re-treatment costs a fraction of the first clean.
No. High-pressure washing can crack tiles and strip the protective surface, which shortens the life of the roof. We scrape the moss off by hand from scaffolding, then treat with biocide. It is safer for the roof and the result lasts far longer.
We work from proper scaffolding, not ladders leaned against the gutter, so the job is done safely and thoroughly. We are fully insured with £5m public liability cover.
