Roof Cleaning Services Mays Green

Investing in roof cleaning is a highly effective method to both enhance the curb appeal of your property and extend the life of your roofing materials. The cleaning process involves thoroughly removing growths such as algae, moss, and lichens, as well as unsightly black streaks and stains.
The difference a professional roof clean makes is dramatic; dull, weather-stained tiles that have darkened over time will typically be restored to their original vibrant colour, creating a striking before-and-after effect.

Homeowners frequently choose to engage a professional Roof Cleaning or External Property Cleaning service in Mays Green, primarily to improve their home's aesthetics. But beyond appearances, removing thick moss deposits is essential to prevent potential damage and water ingress into the home.

Roof Moss Removal Mays Green

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 Mays Green 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 proven roof cleaning method will completely transform the condition of an tired, discoloured roof into one that appears freshly installed. Once we eliminate all the moss, muck, and residue, we restore the natural shade and clean lines of the roof tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate 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 water-related problems.
Prevent Regrowth
Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to discourage the return of algae, moss, or lichen. This final treatment adds an extra layer of defence and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Mays Green

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 Mays Green 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 Mays Green

Through our experienced contractors, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re always working toward providing outstanding service and delivering a fantastic finish for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our specialist services for domestic homes. We also understand that when working at a private property, it’s important to be respectful at all times.

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll conduct a full survey of the roof’s condition, documenting with pictures for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also advise you if any issues should be addressed before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll meet you and provide a copy of our insurance, demonstrating that we’re fully insured in case of any unforeseen damage, such as broken roof tiles.

Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed about the expected timeframe to complete the work and go over our steps.

Preparation

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

Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to prevent runoff from clogging the drains, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. We clean the gutters once this is done.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we clean off roof lichen, clear away moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we apply a powerful biocide across the entire roof to stop the regrowth of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

The entire area is then cleaned up, including the gutters, and any debris is either recycled where possible or removed from site.

Satisfied Customer

Finally, we take pictures of the finished results, and the customer approves the work only when 100% pleased with the outcome.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We use a soft wash approach to clean exterior render, including K-Rend. 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 difference is clear.

Gutter Cleaning

Regular gutter maintenance is important to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes clogged, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if left untreated, can lead to costly repairs over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can both clear and clean your gutters for domestic and business properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily making their gardens, driveways, and patios look great using premium materials like York stone or paving blocks. These hardscapes, like most that are out in the harsh British weather, can accumulate grime over time.

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

Cladding Cleaning

Be it aluminium, building cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even suffer staining if not maintained.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only clean the surface, but also revive it to as close to its former state as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, returning it to its like-new look.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after spending a lot on building a conservatory, it’s a shame to see it look aged and tired due to dirt build-up.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, restoring your conservatory to its fresh appearance.

Soft Washing

We use two main types of soft wash cleaning. The first method applies 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 surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a stronger and environmentally safe cleaning method is required.

Areas we cover

We proudly serve Mays Green and Martyrs Green, Hatchford, Downside, Hatchford End, Elm Corner
