Roof Cleaning Services Hatchford

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 Hatchford 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 Hatchford

Wondering about the importance of roof maintenance? Roof cleaning stands out as the most effective method for moss removal and long-term prevention. Proper roof drainage requires unimpeded water flow from surface to gutters to downspouts, ensuring water moves away from your building.

Moss growth disrupts this system in three critical ways:

Creates a moisture-retaining barrier on your roof
Causes potential tile fractures when moss-trapped water expands during freezing
Disrupts natural water drainage

Roof cleaning professionals utilise two proven approaches for moss elimination. Power washing removes moss and surface contaminants while revitalising the tile appearance. Chemical application involves treating the entire roof with solutions that eliminate all organic growth including moss, algae, and lichen, while addressing discoloration to achieve a refreshed look. UpClean delivers both cleaning solutions for Hatchford properties. These are power washing for roofs and softwash cleaning. We determine the most suitable approach based on roof condition assessment and customer requirements.

Restore the Look of Your Roof

Our cleaning process will dramatically improve the look of an aged and stained roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the dirt and grime, we restore 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 eventually lead to damage and even let water in by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof reduces the risk of long-term damage.

Prevent Regrowth

Following the roof cleaning process, it is given a biocidal wash to discourage the regrowth of algae, moss, or lichen. This step adds an extra layer of defence and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Hatchford

If you're wondering what soft washing for roofs involves, it's a chemical-based cleaning process, often described as "wet and forget," using specialised agents like sodium hypochlorite. Unlike the intense force of pressure washing, soft washing gently but thoroughly removes unwanted moss, algae, lichen, and grime from tiles or slates.

Although results take time, usually a few weeks, the wait ensures chemicals deeply cleanse and restore the roof’s appearance. This gentle process is particularly suited for older roofs that might suffer damage from aggressive cleaning. The soft wash method is also highly effective for cleaning K-Rend and other rendered surfaces.

Following this treatment, a biocide is applied to safeguard against moss and algae returning.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Pressure washing your roof is among the most environmentally responsible cleaning techniques available in Hatchford. 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 Hatchford

With our team, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing outstanding service and delivering a clean, professional result for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our core services for domestic homes. We also understand that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s how we approach it:



Site Survey

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll complete a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a visual record. We’ll also advise you if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

When we arrive, we’ll greet you and provide a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re completely covered in case of any unforeseen damage, such as cracked slates.



Customer Liaise

We will advise you how long the job should take to complete the work and go over our processes.



Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, ground sheeting is placed over any delicate garden areas if a softwash solution is being used.



Blockage Prevention

Drainpipes are briefly covered to stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when performing a moss removal service. We clean the gutters once this is done.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we carry out lichen removal, eliminate roof moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we apply a high-grade biocide over the full roof area to prevent the return of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the guttering, and any organic waste is either recycled where possible or removed from site.



Satisfied Customer

Finally, photos are taken of the completed work, and the customer approves the work only when 100% pleased with the results.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean render surfaces. After clearing away unsightly staining—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render looks refreshed.

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



Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is important to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if ignored, can lead to serious damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can unblock and wash your gutters for residential and commercial 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 subject to the harsh British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and gentler soft wash options to revive the clean look of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

From UPVC, external cladding tend to accumulate dirt over time and can even become stained 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 algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, restoring the material to its fresh, clean state.



Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after putting money into a new conservatory, it’s a shame to see it lose its shine due to grime and staining.

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

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. One uses a Hypo-based solution, while the other relies on a greener treatment. The choice depends on the area in question and the specific site conditions.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is commonly used on roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a robust and environmentally safe cleaning method is needed.
