Roof Cleaning Services Mytchett

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 Mytchett 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 Mytchett

Questioning the necessity of roof cleaning services? The key benefit is its unmatched effectiveness in moss removal and prevention lasting multiple years. Optimal roof performance requires clear water pathways from surface to gutters to downspouts, directing moisture away from your property. Moss buildup interferes with this process through three mechanisms:

  • Behaves as a water absorbing sponge, holding moisture against roofing materials
  • Creates tile damage when water-filled moss undergoes freeze-thaw expansion
  • Restricts normal rainwater flow

Professional moss removal in the UK employs two established methods. High-pressure washing eliminates moss and surface deposits while restoring original tile beauty. Alternatively, chemical treatment covers the complete roof area with solutions designed to kill all organic matter including moss, algae, and lichen, removing stains and achieving a revitalized appearance.

UpClean provides both cleaning services across Mytchett - high-pressure and softwash cleaning options. Method selection is based on roof condition analysis and individual customer preferences.

Restore the Look of Your Roof
Our proven roof cleaning method will revive the look of an aged and stained roof into one that looks almost new. Once we eliminate all the moss, muck, and residue, we reveal the original colour and crisp appearance of the tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even allow moisture to seep through by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof reduces the risk of water-related problems.
Prevent Regrowth
Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is treated with a biocide to discourage the regrowth of moss, lichen, and algae. This final treatment boosts long-term protection and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Mytchett

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

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Mytchett is an eco-friendly and highly effective approach. Because it relies solely on water (H₂O), it's essentially a chemical-free way to naturally remove moss, lichen, and accumulated grime from roofs.

While pressure washing roofs has sometimes been associated with causing damage, engaging a professional and fully insured cleaning service with the proper skills and equipment significantly mitigates these risks, ensuring excellent results.

Not just for driveways and patios, pressure washing is highly beneficial for roofs, removing moss and other unsightly growth like algae and lichen, bringing tiles and slates back to life without using potentially harmful chemicals. Afterward, applying a biocide helps to prevent moss and algae regrowth for years. Each roof is individually inspected, and if tiles appear fragile, soft washing is recommended instead.

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

Through our experienced contractors, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing outstanding service and delivering a fantastic finish 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 essential to act thoughtfully at all times.

Here’s what we aim to deliver each time:

Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll carry out a thorough inspection 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

Upon arrival, we’ll meet you and present a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re properly protected in case of any accident, such as broken roof tiles.

Customer Liaise

We will advise you on the estimated duration to complete the work and explain our processes.

Preparation

Ahead of any Roof Cleaning or moss treatment, a protective sheet is laid down over any delicate garden areas 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. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we remove lichen from the roof, clear away moss, and treat roof algae—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

After the roof has been washed, we treat the surface with a high-grade biocide across the entire roof to stop the future development of any moss, algae, or similar growth.

Third Stage - Clean up

All surrounding areas are thoroughly cleaned, including the guttering, and any organic waste is either disposed of responsibly or taken away.

Satisfied Customer

To wrap up, images are captured of the final outcome, and the customer approves the work only when 100% pleased with the outcome.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean exterior render, including K-Rend. 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 transformation is dramatic.

Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is important to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes overfilled, 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 service and maintain your gutters for residential and commercial properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily improving the appearance of their outdoor spaces using York stone. These hardscapes, like most that are out in the harsh British weather, can accumulate grime over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to bring back the natural finish of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

Be it glass, external cladding tend to accumulate dirt over time and can even develop discolouration if not maintained.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide dedicated cladding treatments designed to not only strip away buildup, but also bring it back to as close to its original condition as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to green algae growth. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, restoring the material to its original condition.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after putting money into a new conservatory, it’s a pity to see it get dirty and dull due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, returning your conservatory to its original state.

Soft Washing

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the alternative is a greener treatment. The choice depends on the type of surface and the environment.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a robust and chemical-free cleaning method is required.
