Roof Cleaning Services Burntcommon

Having your roof professionally cleaned is an affordable solution to significantly enhance your home's appearance while extending the roof's lifespan. Thorough roof cleaning eliminates unsightly moss, algae, and lichen growth, along with any persistent dark stains that spoil your roof’s appearance.
Once professionally cleaned, the transformation of your roof can be remarkable—weather-worn and discoloured tiles will regain their original vibrant shade, often appearing almost brand-new again.
Many property owners opt for a specialist external cleaning or roof restoration service in Burntcommon, usually to improve the visual appeal of their home. However, a heavy moss accumulation can eventually damage tiles or slates, leading to leaks and internal water issues.

Roof Moss Removal Burntcommon

The primary advantage of professional roof cleaning lies in its ability to effectively remove moss buildup and prevent its return for years to come. For your roof to function correctly, rainwater must flow unobstructed from the surface through gutters and downspouts, directing water safely away from your property. This is why roof cleaning is essential.

Moss accumulation creates three significant problems:

  • Functions as a water-absorbing material, holding moisture against the roof
  • When moss between tiles absorbs water and subsequently freezes, it can lead to tile damage and cracking
  • Blocks the natural drainage of rainwater across the roof surface.

Professional roof cleaners in Burntcommon employ two primary moss removal techniques. The first involves high-pressure washing to eliminate moss and debris, restoring tiles to their original appearance. The second method uses specialized chemical treatments applied across the entire roof surface to eliminate moss, algae, and lichen while removing stains and returning the roof to a like-new condition.

UpClean provides both roof cleaning methodologies across the UK - high-pressure cleaning and gentle softwash treatments. Our service selection depends on your roof's current state and your personal preferences.

Restore the Look of Your Roof
Our proven roof cleaning method will revive the look of an aged and stained roof into one that appears freshly installed. Once we eliminate all the moss, muck, and residue, we reveal the natural shade and fresh look of the tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
When moss gathers on a roof can gradually harm the roof surface and even let water in by compromising tiles. Removing moss from the roof can stop long-term damage.
Prevent Regrowth
Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to discourage the regrowth of any organic growth. This step boosts long-term protection and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Burntcommon

What exactly is roof soft washing? Roof cleaning using the soft wash technique is essentially a "wet and forget" method, leveraging chemical solutions such as sodium hypochlorite. This method effectively eliminates moss, algae, lichen, and dirt from roof tiles or slates without using high-pressure water.

While the immediate results might not be instantly noticeable, within a few weeks, as the chemicals fully penetrate and cleanse the roof, you'll see a striking improvement. This gradual approach is ideal for delicate or aged roofing materials, helping them remain intact.

Additionally, the soft wash method is commonly used to clean K-Rend and various other rendered surfaces. After rinsing off the solution, a biocide treatment is applied to prevent future growth of moss and algae.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Burntcommon is an eco-friendly and highly effective approach. Because it relies solely on water (H₂O), it's essentially a chemical-free way to naturally remove moss, lichen, and accumulated grime from roofs.

While pressure washing roofs has sometimes been associated with causing damage, engaging a professional and fully insured cleaning service with the proper skills and equipment significantly mitigates these risks, ensuring excellent results.

Not just for driveways and patios, pressure washing is highly beneficial for roofs, removing moss and other unsightly growth like algae and lichen, bringing tiles and slates back to life without using potentially harmful chemicals. Afterward, applying a biocide helps to prevent moss and algae regrowth for years. Each roof is individually inspected, and if tiles appear fragile, soft washing is recommended instead.

UpClean Roof Cleaners – What to Expect from our Service in Burntcommon

At UpClean, we know how to remove moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing great results and delivering a fantastic finish for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our specialist services for domestic homes. We also are aware that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a clear transformation reference. We’ll also let you know if any issues should be addressed before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll introduce ourselves and present a copy of our insurance, confirming that we’re properly protected in case of any incident, such as broken roof tiles.

Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed on the estimated duration to complete the work and explain our steps.

Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, cover sheeting is set up over any vulnerable plants in preparation for the Soft Wash Cleaning Process.

Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

At this point we remove lichen from the roof, eliminate roof moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

After the roof has been washed, we treat the surface with a high-grade biocide over the full roof area to prevent the return of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

The entire area is then cleaned up, including the gutters, and any organic waste is either disposed of responsibly or removed from site.

Satisfied Customer

Finally, we take pictures of the final outcome, and the customer gives final approval only when entirely happy with the quality of the job.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean render surfaces. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that cause homes to appear run-down—the render looks refreshed.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the change is like night and day.

Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is essential to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can overflow down the walls of the property and may even get inside through roof joints—all of which, if not resolved, can lead to thousands of pounds in property damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can unblock and wash your gutters for domestic and business properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Many property owners spend good money enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using block paving. These surfaces, like most that are out in the changeable British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both pressure washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to restore the original appearance of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

From UPVC, building cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even suffer staining if not maintained.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only clean the surface, but also restore it to as close to its initial appearance as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Over time, UPVC tends to fade or stain, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, bringing the finish back to its original condition.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after putting money into a new conservatory, it’s a shame to see it lose its shine due to grime and staining.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, returning your conservatory to its like-new condition.

Soft Washing

Our team offers two forms of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the alternative is a greener treatment. The choice depends on the type of surface and the environment.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a stronger and chemical-free cleaning method is the best option.
