Roof Cleaning Services Combe Common

Professional roof cleaning offers homeowners a budget-friendly approach to instantly boosting their property’s visual appeal and increasing the lifespan of the roof itself. The thorough cleaning method targets and eliminates algae, lichen, moss, and stubborn black stains, leaving the roof looking immaculate.
After cleaning, roofs previously discoloured and stained by years of exposure to the elements will regain their true colour, often appearing rejuvenated and nearly new.
Most people turn to expert Roof Cleaning Companies in Combe Common because they want their homes to look their best. However, aside from appearance, it's vital to remove substantial moss growth, which, left untreated, can weaken roof tiles and allow moisture to penetrate into the property.

Roof Moss Removal Combe Common

Questioning the necessity of roof cleaning services? The key benefit is its unmatched effectiveness in moss removal and prevention lasting multiple years. Optimal roof performance requires clear water pathways from surface to gutters to downspouts, directing moisture away from your property. Moss buildup interferes with this process through three mechanisms:

  • Behaves as a water absorbing sponge, holding moisture against roofing materials
  • Creates tile damage when water-filled moss undergoes freeze-thaw expansion
  • Restricts normal rainwater flow

Professional moss removal in the UK employs two established methods. High-pressure washing eliminates moss and surface deposits while restoring original tile beauty. Alternatively, chemical treatment covers the complete roof area with solutions designed to kill all organic matter including moss, algae, and lichen, removing stains and achieving a revitalized appearance.

UpClean provides both cleaning services across Combe Common - high-pressure and softwash cleaning options. Method selection is based on roof condition analysis and individual customer preferences.

Restore the Look of Your Roof
Our proven roof cleaning method will completely transform the look of an old and dirty roof into one that appears freshly installed. Through the removal of all the moss, muck, and residue, we bring back the true finish and clean lines of the slates or shingles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Having a build-up of moss on a roof can gradually harm the roof surface and even let water in by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof can stop future issues.
Prevent Regrowth
Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to prevent the reappearance of algae, moss, or lichen. This protective layer helps protect the roof and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Combe Common

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

Cleaning roofs in Combe Common with a pressure washer is an environmentally friendly approach because it uses nothing but water (H₂O) to effectively remove moss, lichen, dirt, and grime. This natural method is about as eco-friendly as roof cleaning can get.

While there have been some concerns about potential roof damage from pressure washing, these risks are greatly reduced when the process is performed by skilled professionals. A trained, experienced, and insured cleaning specialist with proper equipment ensures that the cleaning is both safe and highly effective.

Pressure washing isn't limited to patios and driveways—it's highly effective in removing moss, algae, and lichen from roof tiles and slates, restoring their original appearance without harsh chemicals. After cleaning, a biocide is typically applied to keep moss and algae away long-term. Before starting any work, an inspection is conducted, and if tiles seem fragile, a gentler soft-washing method is recommended instead.

UpClean Roof Cleaners – What to Expect from our Service in Combe Common

At UpClean, we know how to remove moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing great results and delivering a clean, professional result for every customer.

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

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a visual record. We’ll also advise you 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 cracked slates.

Customer Liaise

We’ll let you know how long the job should take to complete the work and explain our processes.

Preparation

Ahead of any Roof Cleaning or moss treatment, a protective sheet is laid down over any vulnerable plants if a softwash solution is being used.

Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage 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 apply a strong biocide over the full roof area to stop the return of any organic matter like algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

The entire area is then cleaned up, including the gutters, and any debris is either composted or hauled off.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, we take pictures of the completed work, and the customer gives final approval only when 100% pleased with the outcome.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We use a soft wash approach to clean rendered walls. Once those black or green stains are removed—the ones that make buildings look neglected—the render regains its original look.

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

Gutter Cleaning

Regular gutter maintenance is important to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if not resolved, can lead to serious damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can service and maintain your gutters for residential and commercial properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

A lot of effort and money goes into improving the appearance of their outdoor spaces using York stone. These hardscapes, like most that are subject to the changeable British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

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

Cladding Cleaning

Whether it’s glass, external cladding tend to accumulate dirt over time and can even become stained if not maintained.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only strip away buildup, but also bring it back to as close to its initial appearance as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Over time, UPVC tends to fade or stain, mostly due to green algae growth. Our UPVC Cleaning method clears away the staining, bringing the finish back to its fresh, clean state.

Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after spending a lot on building a conservatory, it’s a shame to see it look aged and tired due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques wash off discolouration and buildup, bringing your conservatory to its fresh appearance.

Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One uses a Hypo-based solution, while the alternative is a environmentally conscious treatment. The approach we take depends on the material being cleaned and the environment.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a more intensive and eco-friendly cleaning method is required.

Areas we cover

We proudly serve Combe Common and Chiddingfold, Ramsnest Common, Highstreet Green, Wormley, Sandhills
