Roof Cleaning Services Farncombe

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 Farncombe, 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 Farncombe

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 Farncombe 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 cleaning process will completely transform the appearance of an old and dirty roof into one that resembles a brand-new surface. By removing all the dirt and grime, we bring back the true finish and clean lines of the roof tiles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even result in leaks by widening gaps. Removing moss from the roof helps prevent water-related problems.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is treated with a biocide to stop the return of algae, moss, or lichen. This final treatment boosts long-term protection and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Farncombe

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.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Cleaning roofs in Farncombe 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 Farncombe

With our team, we know how to remove moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing great results and delivering a fantastic finish for every customer.

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

Here’s how we approach it:



Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll carry out a detailed assessment 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

When we arrive, we’ll greet you and provide a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re fully insured in case of any incident, such as broken roof tiles.



Customer Liaise

We’ll let you know on the estimated duration to complete the work and walk you through our procedures.



Preparation

Before Roof Cleaning and moss removal, ground sheeting is placed over any sensitive vegetation if a softwash solution is being used.



Blockage Prevention

Drainpipes are briefly covered 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

At this point we carry out lichen removal, 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 apply a high-grade biocide to the whole surface to discourage the return of any organic matter like algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the guttering, and any debris is either composted or hauled off.



Satisfied Customer

Finally, we take pictures of the finished results, and the customer signs off on the job only when completely satisfied with the results.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean render surfaces. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that make buildings look neglected—the render looks refreshed.

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



Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is important to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even enter through the roofline—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 home or workplace properties.



Patio & Driveway cleaning

A lot of effort and money goes into enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using premium materials like York stone or paving blocks. These hardscapes, like most that are subject to the unpredictable British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to revive the clean look of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

Be it UPVC, cladding surfaces naturally collect grime over time and can even suffer staining if neglected for too long.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only strip away buildup, but also bring it back to as close to its original condition as possible.



UPVC Cleaning

UPVC often becomes discoloured, mostly due to green algae growth. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, bringing the finish back to its like-new look.



Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a pity to see it lose its shine due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques remove stains and surface filth, restoring your conservatory to its fresh appearance.



Soft Washing

Our team offers two forms of soft wash cleaning. One involves 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 commonly used on roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a more intensive and chemical-free cleaning method is needed.
