Roof Cleaning Services Fetcham

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 Fetcham, 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 Fetcham

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 Fetcham 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 proven roof cleaning method will dramatically improve 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 reveal the true finish and fresh look of the 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 widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof helps prevent long-term damage.

Prevent Regrowth

Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is treated with a biocide to discourage the return of moss, lichen, and algae. This final treatment helps protect the roof and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Fetcham

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

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Fetcham 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 Fetcham

At UpClean, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing outstanding service and delivering a spotless roof for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our core services for domestic homes. We also recognise that when working at a private property, it’s essential to act thoughtfully at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:



Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll conduct a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, documenting with pictures for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also advise you if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll meet you and present a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re properly protected in case of any unforeseen damage, such as cracked slates.



Customer Liaise

We will advise you about the expected timeframe to complete the work and go over our procedures.



Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, a protective sheet is laid down 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. We clean the gutters once this is done.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we clean off roof lichen, eliminate roof moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

Once roof-washing is finished, we treat the surface with a high-grade biocide over the full roof area to discourage the future development of any organic matter like algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the guttering, and any waste material is either disposed of responsibly or taken away.



Satisfied Customer

At the end, images are captured of the finished results, and the customer gives final approval only when completely satisfied with the quality of the job.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean rendered walls. After clearing away unsightly staining—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render appears as good as new.

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



Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is essential to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can overflow down the walls of the property and may even get inside through roof joints—all of which, if left untreated, can lead to serious 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 improving the appearance of their outdoor spaces using premium materials like York stone or paving blocks. These hardscapes, 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 jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to restore the original appearance of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

Be it glass, cladding surfaces will eventually get dirty over time and can even develop discolouration if not maintained.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only strip away buildup, but also restore 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 effectively cleans the surface, returning it to its like-new look.



Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after spending a lot on building a conservatory, it’s a pity 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, bringing your conservatory to its fresh appearance.



Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the other relies on a environmentally conscious treatment. The method used depends on the material being cleaned and the location.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a more intensive and environmentally safe cleaning method is needed.
