Roof Cleaning Services Hurtmore

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 Hurtmore 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 Hurtmore

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 Hurtmore 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 appearance of an tired, discoloured roof into one that appears freshly installed. By removing all the built-up filth and staining, we bring back the natural shade and fresh look of the roof tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even let water in by creating cracks. Removing moss from the roof reduces the risk of long-term damage.
Prevent Regrowth
Following the roof cleaning process, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to stop the reappearance of algae, moss, or lichen. This final treatment boosts long-term protection and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Hurtmore

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.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Cleaning roofs in Hurtmore 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 Hurtmore

With our team, we know how to remove moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re always working toward providing outstanding service and delivering a spotless roof 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 our job to be considerate at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll carry out a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a visual record. We’ll also advise you if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

As we get to your property, we’ll greet you and present a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re fully insured in case of any incident, such as tile breakage.

Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed on the estimated duration to complete the work and walk you through our steps.

Preparation

Ahead of any Roof Cleaning or moss treatment, cover sheeting is set up over any sensitive vegetation when applying the softwash solution.

Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when performing a moss removal service. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

At this point we remove lichen from the roof, remove built-up moss, and treat roof algae—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we apply a powerful biocide over the full roof area to prevent the future development 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 waste material is either composted or taken away.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, images are captured of the final outcome, and the customer approves the work only when completely satisfied with the outcome.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We use a soft wash approach 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

Regular gutter maintenance is important to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even get inside through roof joints—all of which, if left untreated, can lead to thousands of pounds in property damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can service and maintain 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 areas, like most that are constantly exposed to the changeable 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

Be it stainless steel, external cladding 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 clean the surface, but also bring it back to as close to its initial appearance as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

UPVC often becomes discoloured, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method clears away the staining, returning it to its fresh, clean state.

Conservatory Cleaning

As with UPVC surfaces, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a pity to see it get dirty and dull 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 like-new condition.

Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. One uses a Hypo-based solution, while the second uses a environmentally conscious treatment. The method used depends on the material being cleaned and the environment.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a more intensive and eco-friendly cleaning method is the best option.
