Roof Cleaning Services Chobham

Investing in roof cleaning is a highly effective method to both enhance the curb appeal of your property and extend the life of your roofing materials. The cleaning process involves thoroughly removing growths such as algae, moss, and lichens, as well as unsightly black streaks and stains.
The difference a professional roof clean makes is dramatic; dull, weather-stained tiles that have darkened over time will typically be restored to their original vibrant colour, creating a striking before-and-after effect.

Homeowners frequently choose to engage a professional Roof Cleaning or External Property Cleaning service in Chobham, primarily to improve their home's aesthetics. But beyond appearances, removing thick moss deposits is essential to prevent potential damage and water ingress into the home.

Roof Moss Removal Chobham

Wondering about the importance of roof maintenance? Roof cleaning stands out as the most effective method for moss removal and long-term prevention. Proper roof drainage requires unimpeded water flow from surface to gutters to downspouts, ensuring water moves away from your building.

  • Moss growth disrupts this system in three critical ways:
  • Creates a moisture-retaining barrier on your roof
  • Causes potential tile fractures when moss-trapped water expands during freezing
  • Disrupts natural water drainage

Roof cleaning professionals utilise two proven approaches for moss elimination. Power washing removes moss and surface contaminants while revitalising the tile appearance. Chemical application involves treating the entire roof with solutions that eliminate all organic growth including moss, algae, and lichen, while addressing discoloration to achieve a refreshed look. UpClean delivers both cleaning solutions for Chobham properties. These are power washing for roofs and softwash cleaning. We determine the most suitable approach based on roof condition assessment and customer requirements.

Restore the Look of Your Roof
The way we clean roofs will revive the look of an old and dirty roof into one that resembles a brand-new surface. Through the removal of all the moss, muck, and residue, we bring back the natural shade and clean lines of the tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even allow moisture to seep through by compromising tiles. Clearing away moss from the roof reduces the risk of water-related problems.
Prevent Regrowth
Following the roof cleaning process, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to discourage the return of moss, lichen, and algae. This protective layer boosts long-term protection and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Chobham

Curious about soft wash roof cleaning? This method employs a chemical-based "wet and forget" approach, primarily using sodium hypochlorite to remove moss, algae, lichen, and grime from roof tiles or slates.

Unlike traditional high-pressure methods, soft washing gently treats your roof, significantly reducing the risk of damage, especially important for older or fragile roofing materials. The cleaning results become fully visible after a few weeks as the chemical solution continues its work.

Soft washing is also beneficial for cleaning K-Rend and similar types of render on walls. Following the cleaning and rinse-off stage, professionals apply a biocide treatment to ensure your roof remains free from future moss and algae growth.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Chobham 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 Chobham

At UpClean, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing outstanding service 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 servicing residential clients, it’s our job to be considerate at all times.

Here’s how we approach it:

Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, documenting with pictures for a visual record. We’ll also advise you if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

As we get to your property, we’ll meet you and provide a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re properly protected in case of any unforeseen damage, such as tile breakage.

Customer Liaise

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

Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, ground sheeting is placed over any sensitive vegetation when applying the softwash solution.

Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when performing a moss removal service. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we remove lichen from the roof, eliminate roof moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we apply a strong biocide over the full roof area to prevent the return of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the roof drainage system, and any debris is either recycled where possible or removed from site.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, images are captured of the final outcome, and the customer signs off on the job only when 100% pleased with the quality of the job.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We use a soft wash approach to clean exterior render, including K-Rend. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render regains its original look.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the difference is clear.

Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is essential to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if ignored, 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 home or workplace properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using premium materials like York stone or paving blocks. These areas, like most that are out in the unpredictable British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to bring back the natural finish of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

Be it glass, building cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even suffer staining if neglected for too long.

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

UPVC Cleaning

UPVC often becomes discoloured, 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 investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a shame to see it look aged and tired due to grime and staining.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, restoring your conservatory to its fresh appearance.

Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the second uses a more eco-friendly treatment. The choice depends on the type of surface and the location.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a more intensive and environmentally safe cleaning method is the best option.
