The softwashing and biocide treatment method in detail
Low-pressure softwash and biocide treatment that keeps roofs cleaner for longer.
- Treatment is applied evenly across the whole pitch, including the areas that look clean, because untreated sections reseed the rest.
- Softwashing applies the cleaning solution at low pressure and lets the chemistry do the work, rather than relying on force.
- Planting and glazing protected before any solution is applied.

Questions we get asked
Can you do neighbouring properties on the same visit?
Usually, and it is worth asking. Once we are set up in a Stotfold street the additional cost of the house next door is much lower than a separate visit — the same applies across Arlesey, Letchworth and Baldock.
How does Stotfold compare with Ampthill for roof condition?
They are only about 14 miles apart, but local shade, aspect and tree cover matter far more than the distance between towns. The River Ivel runs through the town alongside old watercress beds and the Stotfold Mill nature reserve, and this low, wet ground keeps moss growth persistent on north-facing roofs close to the river corridor compared with the drier estates further from the water.
Which villages near Stotfold do you also cover?
Arlesey, Letchworth and Baldock all fall on the same run, and we regularly work outward from Stotfold Mill and Green Lanes shopping area.
Where do you park and set up in Stotfold?
Usually straightforward on A507 and A1 and tighter on the older terraces. Tell us the street and we will bring the right access kit for softwashing and biocide treatment.
How often should a roof be treated?
It depends entirely on shade and aspect. A sunny south-facing pitch stays clean much longer than a shaded north-facing one under trees.
Stotfold in one paragraph
The River Ivel runs through the town alongside old watercress beds and the Stotfold Mill nature reserve, and this low, wet ground keeps moss growth persistent on north-facing roofs close to the river corridor compared with the drier estates further from the water, and the local stock is stotfold's older core along brook street and the high street has victorian brick terraces with slate roofs. That combination is what shapes how we approach softwashing and biocide treatment here — hand work first, treatment second, honest advice about intervals third.
