Roof Cleaning Services Compton

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 Compton, 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 Compton

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 Compton 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

The way we clean roofs will dramatically improve the appearance of an tired, discoloured roof into one that looks almost new. By removing all the moss, muck, and residue, we restore the original colour and crisp appearance of the roof tiles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

Having a build-up of moss on a roof can gradually harm the roof surface and even allow moisture to seep through by compromising tiles. Clearing away moss from the roof helps prevent water-related problems.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to stop the reappearance of algae, moss, or lichen. This protective layer boosts long-term protection and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Compton

We have years of experience in Soft washing a roof & this is what it involves. Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning approach, often known as a "wet and forget" method. It utilises chemicals such as sodium hypochlorite to eliminate moss, algae, lichen, and accumulated dirt from roofing materials like tiles and slates.

Unlike pressure washing, this gentle method avoids potential damage to delicate or ageing roof surfaces. Although the visual transformation isn't immediate, within several weeks the chemical agents will have thoroughly cleansed your roof, revealing a significantly cleaner look.

The technique is similarly effective for K-Rend cleaning and other rendered wall surfaces. Once cleaning is complete, a biocide treatment is applied to inhibit future moss and algae growth.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Pressure washing your roof is among the most environmentally responsible cleaning techniques available in Compton. Since this method exclusively uses water (H₂O), it naturally and effectively clears away moss, algae, dirt, and lichen without chemicals.

Despite occasional reports of roof damage from high-pressure methods, the risk is minimised by hiring experienced, professionally trained, and insured cleaners who use the correct equipment to ensure optimal outcomes.

Apart from cleaning patios and driveways, pressure washing provides superior results for roofs by effectively removing moss, algae, lichen, and other growths, revitalising tiles or slates to their original appearance. To prevent regrowth of moss and algae, a biocide is usually applied after cleaning. A detailed inspection precedes any cleaning, and if roof tiles are found to be older or fragile, professionals will opt for a safer, softer cleaning method.

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

Through our experienced contractors, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re always working toward 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 important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:



Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll conduct a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also let you know if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

When we arrive, we’ll introduce ourselves and present a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re fully insured in case of any incident, such as cracked slates.



Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed about the expected timeframe to complete the work and go over our processes.



Preparation

Ahead of any Roof Cleaning or moss treatment, ground sheeting is placed over any vulnerable plants if a softwash solution is being used.



Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to prevent runoff from clogging the drains, especially when performing a moss removal service. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we remove lichen from the roof, remove built-up 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 powerful biocide to the whole surface to prevent the return of any organic matter like algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

All surrounding areas are thoroughly cleaned, including the guttering, and any waste material is either disposed of responsibly or taken away.



Satisfied Customer

To wrap up, photos are taken of the finished results, and the customer gives final approval only when completely satisfied with the results.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean render surfaces. 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 change is like night and day.



Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is important to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes clogged, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even enter through the roofline—all of which, if left untreated, 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 making their gardens, driveways, and patios look great using premium materials like York stone or paving blocks. These hardscapes, like most that are constantly exposed to the changeable British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

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



Cladding Cleaning

From stainless steel, building cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even become stained if left unwashed.

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



UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to green algae growth. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, restoring the material 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 remove stains and surface filth, returning your conservatory to its fresh appearance.



Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. The first method applies Hypo, while the alternative is a more eco-friendly treatment. The method used depends on the material being cleaned and the location.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a robust and chemical-free cleaning method is needed.
