Roof Cleaning Services New England

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 New England 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 New England

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 New England 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 cleaning process will completely transform the appearance of an tired, discoloured roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the dirt and grime, we reveal the true finish and clean lines of the tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Having a build-up of moss on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even allow moisture to seep through by compromising tiles. Clearing away moss from the roof can stop future issues.
Prevent Regrowth
After the roof has been cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to discourage the return of moss, lichen, and algae. This protective layer boosts long-term protection and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning New England

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.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Cleaning roofs in New England 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 New England

At UpClean, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing a reliable experience and delivering a spotless roof for every customer.

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

Here’s what you can expect:

Site Survey

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll carry out a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a visual record. We’ll also inform you if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

When we arrive, we’ll introduce ourselves and provide 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 go over our processes.

Preparation

Ahead of any Roof Cleaning or moss treatment, cover sheeting is set up over any delicate garden areas if a softwash solution is being used.

Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we carry out lichen removal, eliminate roof moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

Once roof-washing is finished, we spray a high-grade biocide to the whole surface to stop the regrowth of any unwanted roof growth such as algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

All surrounding areas are thoroughly cleaned, including the roof drainage system, and any organic waste is either composted or hauled off.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, we take pictures of the completed work, and the customer gives final approval only when completely satisfied with the results.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean render surfaces. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render appears as good as new.

Once we’ve completed K-Rend cleaning, the difference is clear.

Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is essential to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can run down the exterior of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if ignored, can lead to thousands of pounds in property damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can unblock and wash your gutters for residential and commercial 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 subject to the changeable British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both pressure washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to revive the clean look of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

Whether it’s glass, building cladding tend to accumulate dirt over time and can even become stained if neglected for too long.

As part of our building surface cleaning, we provide a complete cladding wash-down designed to not only strip away buildup, but also bring it back to as close to its initial appearance as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to the buildup of green residue. Our UPVC Cleaning method effectively cleans the surface, returning it to its original condition.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after putting money into a new 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 wash off discolouration and buildup, returning your conservatory to its original state.

Soft Washing

Our team offers two forms of soft wash cleaning. One uses a Hypo-based solution, while the alternative is a more eco-friendly treatment. The approach we take depends on the area in question and the location.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a robust and eco-friendly cleaning method is the best option.

Areas we cover

We proudly serve New England and Donkey Town, West End, Lucas Green, Lightwater, Brook Place
