Roof Cleaning Services Ewhurst

Professional roof cleaning is an economical way to instantly boost the curb appeal of your home and preserve the integrity of your roofing. A thorough cleaning removes troublesome moss, algae, lichen, and unattractive dark staining.

The results of a professional clean are striking. Tiles that were previously weather-beaten and darkened with age will noticeably brighten, often appearing refreshed and nearly new.

Many homeowners in Ewhurst rely on specialist roof cleaning services primarily to restore their home's exterior attractiveness. Additionally, addressing significant moss growth is essential, as untreated moss can damage roofing tiles and lead to water entering the property.

Roof Moss Removal Ewhurst

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 Ewhurst - 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 appearance of an aged and stained roof into one that resembles a brand-new surface. Through the removal of all the built-up filth and staining, we restore the original colour and fresh look of the roof tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even let water in by compromising tiles. Removing moss from the roof can stop water-related problems.
Prevent Regrowth
Following the roof cleaning process, it is treated with a biocide to stop the reappearance of algae, moss, or lichen. This final treatment adds an extra layer of defence and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Ewhurst

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.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Ewhurst 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 Ewhurst

Through our experienced contractors, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing great results and delivering a spotless roof for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our core services for domestic homes. We also understand that when servicing residential clients, it’s essential to act thoughtfully at all times.

Here’s what we aim to deliver each time:

Site Survey

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, documenting with pictures for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also let you know if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll meet you and provide a copy of our insurance, confirming that we’re fully insured in case of any accident, such as broken roof tiles.

Customer Liaise

We’ll let you know about the expected timeframe to complete the work and walk you through our procedures.

Preparation

Before Roof Cleaning and moss removal, cover sheeting is set up over any delicate garden areas if a softwash solution is being used.

Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts 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 clean off roof lichen, remove built-up moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

Once roof-washing is finished, we apply a powerful biocide over the full roof area to prevent the return of any organic matter like algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

The entire area is then cleaned up, including the guttering, and any organic waste is either recycled where possible or taken away.

Satisfied Customer

To wrap up, images are captured of the final outcome, and the customer signs off on the job only when 100% pleased with the results.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean rendered walls. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that cause homes to appear run-down—the render regains its original look.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the transformation is dramatic.

Gutter Cleaning

Regular gutter maintenance is essential to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even get inside through roof joints—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

Many property owners spend good money enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using York stone. 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 high-powered cleaning and soft washing to bring back the natural finish of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

From UPVC, external cladding naturally collect grime over time and can even suffer staining if left unwashed.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only strip away buildup, but also revive it to as close to its former state 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, returning it to its fresh, clean state.

Conservatory Cleaning

As with UPVC surfaces, after putting money into a new conservatory, it’s a shame to see it get dirty and dull due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, returning your conservatory to its original state.

Soft Washing

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. The first method applies Hypo, while the other relies on a more eco-friendly treatment. The approach we take depends on the type of surface and the environment.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a stronger and environmentally safe cleaning method is needed.
