Roof Cleaning Services Rushmoor

Having your roof professionally cleaned is an affordable solution to significantly enhance your home's appearance while extending the roof's lifespan. Thorough roof cleaning eliminates unsightly moss, algae, and lichen growth, along with any persistent dark stains that spoil your roof’s appearance.
Once professionally cleaned, the transformation of your roof can be remarkable—weather-worn and discoloured tiles will regain their original vibrant shade, often appearing almost brand-new again.
Many property owners opt for a specialist external cleaning or roof restoration service in Rushmoor, usually to improve the visual appeal of their home. However, a heavy moss accumulation can eventually damage tiles or slates, leading to leaks and internal water issues.

Roof Moss Removal Rushmoor

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 Rushmoor 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 appearance of an old and dirty roof into one that looks almost new. By removing 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
When moss gathers on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even let water in by creating cracks. Clearing away moss from the roof can stop future issues.
Prevent Regrowth
After the roof has been cleaned, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to stop the return of any organic growth. This final treatment boosts long-term protection and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Rushmoor

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

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Rushmoor 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 Rushmoor

Through our experienced contractors, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing great results and delivering a clean, professional result for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our core services for domestic homes. We also understand that when servicing residential clients, it’s our job to be considerate at all times.

Here’s how we approach it:

Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll carry out a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also advise you if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

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

Customer Liaise

We’ll let you know about the expected timeframe to complete the work and go over our procedures.

Preparation

Prior to starting Roof Cleaning and clearing moss, ground sheeting is placed over any sensitive vegetation in preparation for the Soft Wash Cleaning Process.

Blockage Prevention

Drainpipes are briefly covered to prevent runoff from clogging the drains, especially when performing a moss removal service. We clean the gutters once this is done.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

At this point we carry out lichen removal, eliminate roof moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.

Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we spray a strong biocide to the whole surface to stop the return of any moss, algae, or similar growth.

Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the gutters, and any waste material is either recycled where possible or removed from site.

Satisfied Customer

Finally, images are captured of the final outcome, and the customer signs off on the job only when completely satisfied with the results.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean rendered walls. 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 transformation is dramatic.

Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is important to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. If a gutter becomes blocked, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if not resolved, can lead to costly repairs over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can service and maintain your gutters for home or workplace properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

Homeowners often invest heavily making their gardens, driveways, and patios look great using block paving. These hardscapes, like most that are out in the unpredictable British weather, can accumulate grime 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

From glass, external cladding tend to accumulate dirt over time and can even become stained if neglected for too long.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, we provide dedicated cladding treatments designed to not only remove dirt, but also revive it to as close to its original condition as possible.

UPVC Cleaning

Over time, UPVC tends to fade or stain, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method clears away the staining, returning it to its fresh, clean state.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after investing heavily in your 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 wash off discolouration and buildup, restoring your conservatory to its original state.

Soft Washing

Our team offers two forms of soft wash cleaning. The first method applies Hypo, while the other relies on a environmentally conscious treatment. The choice depends on the type of surface and the specific site conditions.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a more intensive and eco-friendly cleaning method is required.

Areas we cover

We proudly serve Rushmoor and Crosswater, Tilford Common, Tilford Reeds, Millbridge, Frensham
