Roof Cleaning Services Shere

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 Shere 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 Shere

Is professional roof cleaning worthwhile? Absolutely - it remains the premier solution for moss eradication and sustained protection. Your roof's drainage system depends on unrestricted water movement from tiles through gutters to downspouts, channelling water safely from your structure. Moss development creates three major complications:

  • Operates like a moisture reservoir, trapping water on the roof
  • Results in tile cracking when water-saturated moss expands through freeze-thaw cycles
  • Impedes proper rainwater runoff

Two main techniques exist for roof moss treatment in Shere. Pressure cleaning blasts away moss and surface build up, restoring the original tile aesthetics. Chemical treatment involves comprehensive roof application of solutions that destroy all living organisms such as moss, algae, and lichen, while eliminating staining for a renewed appearance. UpClean offers both cleaning approaches throughout the UK - pressure washing and soft-washing. The type decided on is determined by roof condition evaluation and customer preference.

Restore the Look of Your Roof
Our proven roof cleaning method will revive the look of an tired, discoloured roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the dirt and grime, we restore the true finish and crisp appearance of the tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
When moss gathers on a roof can eventually lead to damage and even result in leaks by compromising tiles. Removing moss from the roof can stop future issues.
Prevent Regrowth
After the roof has been cleaned, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to discourage the reappearance of algae, moss, or lichen. This protective layer boosts long-term protection and prolongs its life.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Shere

We have years of experience in Soft washing a roof & this is what it involves. Soft washing is a low-pressure cleaning approach, often known as a "wet and forget" method. It utilises chemicals such as sodium hypochlorite to eliminate moss, algae, lichen, and accumulated dirt from roofing materials like tiles and slates.

Unlike pressure washing, this gentle method avoids potential damage to delicate or ageing roof surfaces. Although the visual transformation isn't immediate, within several weeks the chemical agents will have thoroughly cleansed your roof, revealing a significantly cleaner look.

The technique is similarly effective for K-Rend cleaning and other rendered wall surfaces. Once cleaning is complete, a biocide treatment is applied to inhibit future moss and algae growth.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Roof pressure washing in Shere 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 Shere

Through our experienced contractors, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re focused on providing great results and delivering a fantastic finish for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our primary services for domestic homes. We also recognise that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s our job to be considerate at all times.

Here’s how we approach it:

Site Survey

Ahead of any cleaning, we’ll conduct a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a clear transformation reference. We’ll also let you know if any roof repairs are needed before we proceed.

Industry Compliant

As we get to your property, we’ll greet you and present a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re fully insured in case of any unforeseen damage, such as broken roof tiles.

Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed on the estimated duration to complete the work and walk you through our processes.

Preparation

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

Blockage Prevention

We temporarily seal the downspouts to avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when carrying out moss removal. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

Here’s where we clean off roof lichen, 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 prevent the future development of any organic matter like algae or moss.

Third Stage - Clean up

We finish by tidying the whole site, including the guttering, and any debris is either recycled where possible or hauled off.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, images are captured of the completed work, and the customer gives final approval only when 100% pleased with the results.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean render surfaces. Once those black or green stains are removed—the ones that make buildings look neglected—the render looks refreshed.

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

Gutter Cleaning

Ongoing gutter care is important to preventing water from damaging your property. If a gutter becomes clogged, water can overflow down the walls of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if left untreated, can lead to serious damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can service and maintain your gutters for domestic and business properties.

Patio & Driveway cleaning

A lot of effort and money goes into enhancing the look of driveways, patios, and gardens using block paving. These surfaces, like most that are out in the harsh British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to restore the original appearance of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

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

As part of our external property care, we provide professional cladding cleaning designed to not only clean the surface, 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 algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method clears away the staining, returning it to its original condition.

Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a letdown to see it look aged and tired due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques remove stains and surface filth, returning 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 more eco-friendly treatment. The method used depends on the material being cleaned and the location.

Pressure Washing

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

Areas we cover

We proudly serve Shere and Gomshall, Albury Heath, Little London, Burrows Cross, Brook
