How can we clean your roof?
There are two approaches to roof cleaning. We can either pressure wash the roof (under low pressure) or scrape and softwash the roof.
Pressure wash
- First, we carry out a (Low pressure) pressure wash of the roof area. This is carried out at around 50 bar of pressure. We minimise the pressure when cleaning the roof to ensure water does not get into the roof space.
- Second, we empty the gutters and clear up all the moss and dirt.
- Last, we apply a biocide to kill the moss, lichen and algae spores. Keeping the roof cleaner for longer.
Scrape and Softwash
- First, we scrape the large moss and lichen from the roof area. This is carried out with profiled scrapers designed for your roof tiles to ensure as much moss is scraped off as possible.
- Second, we empty the gutters and clear up all the moss and dirt.
- Last, we apply a biocide to kill the moss, lichen and algae spores. Keeping the roof cleaner for longer and brightening the roof as they clean the tiles/slates. Once the biocide is applied the rain will improve the look of the roof and continue to clean it over a course of months.
