Roof Cleaning Services Horsell

Professional roof cleaning offers homeowners a budget-friendly approach to instantly boosting their property’s visual appeal and increasing the lifespan of the roof itself. The thorough cleaning method targets and eliminates algae, lichen, moss, and stubborn black stains, leaving the roof looking immaculate.
After cleaning, roofs previously discoloured and stained by years of exposure to the elements will regain their true colour, often appearing rejuvenated and nearly new.
Most people turn to expert Roof Cleaning Companies in Horsell because they want their homes to look their best. However, aside from appearance, it's vital to remove substantial moss growth, which, left untreated, can weaken roof tiles and allow moisture to penetrate into the property.

Roof Moss Removal Horsell

Is professional roof cleaning worthwhile? Absolutely - it remains the premier solution for moss eradication and sustained protection. Your roof's drainage system depends on unrestricted water movement from tiles through gutters to downspouts, channelling water safely from your structure. Moss development creates three major complications:

Operates like a moisture reservoir, trapping water on the roof
Results in tile cracking when water-saturated moss expands through freeze-thaw cycles
Impedes proper rainwater runoff

Two main techniques exist for roof moss treatment in Horsell. Pressure cleaning blasts away moss and surface build up, restoring the original tile aesthetics. Chemical treatment involves comprehensive roof application of solutions that destroy all living organisms such as moss, algae, and lichen, while eliminating staining for a renewed appearance. UpClean offers both cleaning approaches throughout the UK - pressure washing and soft-washing. The type decided on is determined by roof condition evaluation and customer preference.

Restore the Look of Your Roof

Our cleaning process will revive the look of an tired, discoloured roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the moss, muck, and residue, we restore the natural shade and crisp appearance of the slates or shingles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

When moss gathers on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even result in leaks by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof reduces the risk of future issues.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is treated with a biocide to stop the regrowth of moss, lichen, and algae. This step adds an extra layer of defence and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Horsell

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

Roof pressure washing in Horsell is a highly effective, environmentally conscious method, utilising only water (H₂O) to remove stubborn moss, lichen, and built-up grime. It’s as natural and chemical-free as roof cleaning methods can be.

Despite some negative perceptions around pressure washing causing roof damage, choosing a reputable, experienced, and fully insured professional cleaning company ensures safe and impressive outcomes.

Beyond patios and driveways, pressure washing is ideal for roofs, eliminating moss, algae, and lichen growths, reviving tiles and slates to their original beauty without hazardous chemicals. After completion, a biocide treatment is used to inhibit future growth. Every roof undergoes a thorough assessment prior to cleaning, and if older or delicate tiles are identified, professionals will suggest the gentler soft wash approach.

UpClean Roof Cleaners – What to Expect from our Service in Horsell

Through our experienced contractors, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing a reliable experience 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 working at a private property, it’s essential to act thoughtfully at all times.

Here’s what we aim to deliver each time:



Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll conduct a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a visual record. We’ll also inform you if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

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



Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, ground sheeting is placed over any delicate garden areas in preparation for the Soft Wash Cleaning Process.



Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when carrying out moss removal. We clean the gutters once this is done.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we remove lichen from the roof, eliminate roof moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we spray a high-grade biocide to the whole surface to discourage the regrowth of any moss, algae, or similar growth.



Third Stage - Clean up

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



Satisfied Customer

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

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean rendered walls. After clearing away unsightly staining—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render regains its original look.

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



Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is essential to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even enter through the roofline—all of which, if ignored, can lead to costly repairs 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 improving the appearance of their outdoor spaces using block paving. These surfaces, like most that are constantly exposed to the harsh British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both pressure washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to restore the original appearance of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

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

As part of our external property care, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only strip away buildup, but also restore it to as close to its original condition as possible.



UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, returning it to its original condition.



Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a letdown to see it look aged and tired due to dirt build-up.

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



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 area in question and the environment.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a more intensive and chemical-free cleaning method is the best option.
