Roof Cleaning Services Leatherhead

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 Leatherhead 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 Leatherhead

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 Leatherhead 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

The way we clean roofs will revive the condition of an old and dirty roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the built-up filth and staining, we bring back the true finish and crisp appearance of the slates or shingles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

Having a build-up of moss on a roof can over time cause structural problems and even allow moisture to seep through by compromising tiles. Getting rid of moss from the roof can stop long-term damage.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is treated with a biocide to stop the reappearance of moss, lichen, and algae. This step helps protect the roof and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Leatherhead

What exactly is roof soft washing? Roof cleaning using the soft wash technique is essentially a "wet and forget" method, leveraging chemical solutions such as sodium hypochlorite. This method effectively eliminates moss, algae, lichen, and dirt from roof tiles or slates without using high-pressure water.

While the immediate results might not be instantly noticeable, within a few weeks, as the chemicals fully penetrate and cleanse the roof, you'll see a striking improvement. This gradual approach is ideal for delicate or aged roofing materials, helping them remain intact.

Additionally, the soft wash method is commonly used to clean K-Rend and various other rendered surfaces. After rinsing off the solution, a biocide treatment is applied to prevent future growth of moss and algae.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Roof pressure washing in Leatherhead 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 Leatherhead

With our team, we specialise in clearing 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 specialist services for domestic homes. We also are aware that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s what we aim to deliver each time:



Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll complete a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a clear transformation reference. We’ll also let you know if any issues should be addressed before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

When we arrive, we’ll greet you and provide a copy of our insurance, confirming that we’re completely covered in case of any incident, such as broken roof tiles.



Customer Liaise

We will advise you on the estimated duration to complete the work and go over our steps.



Preparation

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



Blockage Prevention

Drainpipes are briefly covered to prevent runoff from clogging the drains, especially when carrying out moss removal. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.



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

Once roof-washing is finished, we spray a strong biocide across the entire roof to discourage the return of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.



Third Stage - Clean up

The entire area is then cleaned up, including the guttering, and any debris is either disposed of responsibly or removed from site.



Satisfied Customer

To wrap up, we take pictures of the finished results, and the customer approves the work only when entirely happy with the outcome.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean rendered walls. Once those black or green stains are removed—the ones that cause homes to appear run-down—the render regains its original look.

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



Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is essential to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes overfilled, water can overflow down the walls of the property and may even enter through the roofline—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 both clear and clean your gutters for residential and commercial properties.



Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using York stone. These surfaces, like most that are out in the harsh British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

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



Cladding Cleaning

Be it glass, external cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even become stained if left unwashed.

As part of our external property care, we provide a complete cladding wash-down designed to not only strip away buildup, but also restore it to as close to its initial appearance as possible.



UPVC Cleaning

Over time, UPVC tends to fade or stain, mostly due to the buildup of green residue. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, bringing the finish back to its original condition.



Conservatory Cleaning

As with UPVC surfaces, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a letdown to see it lose its shine due to dirt build-up.

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



Soft Washing

Our team offers two forms of soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the alternative is a greener treatment. The approach we take depends on the area in question and the location.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a stronger and eco-friendly cleaning method is required.
