Why choose hand cleaning?
High-pressure washing can strip protective coatings, dislodge tiles and force water into places it shouldn't go. A careful hand clean takes longer, but the results are more consistent and the risk to your roof is dramatically reduced.
We work methodically across the whole roof, paying particular attention to valleys, ridges and areas where moss has taken hold. When we're finished we clear down and leave the site tidy.
Our process
A careful, methodical approach designed to protect your roof and your property.
Inspection & set-up
We inspect the roof, agree the plan and set up safely with the right access before any work begins.
Manual moss removal
We clear moss and heavy debris from tiles and valleys by hand — carefully, tile by tile.
Softwash & biocide
We follow up with a gentle softwash and a professional biocide treatment to slow regrowth.
Frequently asked
Do you use pressure washers?
Not on the roof itself. Our roof service is hand-cleaned. High-pressure washing is generally unsuitable for delicate tiles and can cause damage.
How long does a roof clean take?
It depends on the size of the roof and how much moss is present, but most domestic roofs are completed in one to two days.
Will you make a mess of the garden?
We take care with sheeting and clearing debris. We leave the site tidy — that's a non-negotiable for us.
How often should a roof be cleaned?
Every few years is typical for most UK homes. A biocide top-up in between can extend the results.
