Roof Cleaning Services South Farnborough

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 South Farnborough, 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 South Farnborough

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 South Farnborough. 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 completely transform the condition of an aged and stained roof into one that resembles a brand-new surface. By removing all the moss, muck, and residue, we restore the original colour 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 reduces the risk of water-related problems.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is given a biocidal wash to discourage the regrowth of moss, lichen, and algae. This protective layer helps protect the roof and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning South Farnborough

What exactly is roof soft washing? Roof cleaning using the soft wash technique is essentially a "wet and forget" method, leveraging chemical solutions such as sodium hypochlorite. This method effectively eliminates moss, algae, lichen, and dirt from roof tiles or slates without using high-pressure water.

While the immediate results might not be instantly noticeable, within a few weeks, as the chemicals fully penetrate and cleanse the roof, you'll see a striking improvement. This gradual approach is ideal for delicate or aged roofing materials, helping them remain intact.

Additionally, the soft wash method is commonly used to clean K-Rend and various other rendered surfaces. After rinsing off the solution, a biocide treatment is applied to prevent future growth of moss and algae.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in South Farnborough 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 South Farnborough

At UpClean, we understand how to safely eliminate moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re always working toward providing outstanding service and delivering a spotless roof 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 what you can expect:



Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also inform you if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

Upon arrival, we’ll introduce ourselves and provide a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re properly protected in case of any incident, such as tile breakage.



Customer Liaise

We will advise you about the expected timeframe to complete the work and explain our processes.



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 stop moss runoff from entering the drainage system, especially when performing a moss removal service. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we carry out lichen removal, clear away moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we spray a powerful biocide to the whole surface to stop the future development 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 waste material is either disposed of responsibly or removed from site.



Satisfied Customer

Finally, photos are taken of the completed work, and the customer approves the work only when completely satisfied with the quality of the job.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

Our method involves soft washing to clean rendered walls. 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

Frequent gutter clearing is key to keeping rainwater away from a building. If a gutter becomes clogged, 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 serious damage over time.

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



Patio & Driveway cleaning

A lot of effort and money goes into improving the appearance of their outdoor spaces using York stone. These areas, like most that are out in the changeable British weather, can get covered in moss, algae, and dirt over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both pressure washing and soft washing to bring back the natural finish of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

Be it UPVC, building cladding naturally collect grime over time and can even become stained if left unwashed.

As part of our external property care, we provide dedicated cladding treatments designed to not only clean the surface, 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 removes this dirt and filth, returning it to its fresh, clean state.



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 dirt build-up.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques wash off discolouration and buildup, bringing your conservatory to its original state.



Soft Washing

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the other relies on a greener treatment. The choice depends on the area in question and the specific site conditions.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for roofs, cladding, patios, and driveways when a more intensive and eco-friendly cleaning method is the best option.
