Roof Cleaning Services Felthamhill

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 Felthamhill 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 Felthamhill

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 Felthamhill 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 dramatically improve the condition of an old and dirty roof into one that looks almost new. By removing all the dirt and grime, we bring back the true finish and fresh look 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 result in leaks by creating cracks. Removing moss from the roof reduces the risk of long-term damage.
Prevent Regrowth
After the roof has been cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to prevent the return of algae, moss, or lichen. This final treatment helps protect the roof and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Felthamhill

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

Cleaning roofs in Felthamhill 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 Felthamhill

With our team, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re always working toward providing a reliable experience and delivering a spotless roof for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our primary services for domestic homes. We also understand that when servicing residential clients, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll complete a full survey of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a clear transformation reference. 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 fully insured 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 go over our steps.

Preparation

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

Blockage Prevention

Drainpipes are briefly covered 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, clear away moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we treat the surface with a powerful biocide to the whole surface to discourage the return of any moss, algae, or similar growth.

Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the guttering, and any debris is either recycled where possible or taken away.

Satisfied Customer

Finally, photos are taken of the completed work, and the customer gives final approval 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 make buildings look neglected—the render appears as good as new.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the change is like night and day.

Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is key to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. 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 not resolved, can lead to costly repairs over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can service and maintain your gutters for home or workplace properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using block paving. These hardscapes, like most that are out in the harsh 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 revive the clean look of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

From UPVC, external cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even develop discolouration if left unwashed.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, 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

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method clears away the staining, restoring the material to its fresh, clean state.

Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after spending a lot on building a conservatory, it’s a letdown to see it get dirty and dull due to dirt build-up.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, bringing your conservatory to its like-new condition.

Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, 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 commonly used on areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a robust and environmentally safe cleaning method is needed.

Areas we cover
