Roof Cleaning Services Stoneleigh

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 Stoneleigh, 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 Stoneleigh

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 Stoneleigh 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 dramatically improve the condition of an tired, discoloured roof into one that looks almost new. Once we eliminate all the moss, muck, and residue, we bring back the true finish and clean lines of the roof tiles.
Prevent Damage & Water Ingress
Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can over time cause structural problems and even let water in by widening gaps. Clearing away moss from the roof helps prevent future issues.
Prevent Regrowth
Once the roof is thoroughly cleaned, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to stop the return of moss, lichen, and algae. This final treatment adds an extra layer of defence and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Stoneleigh

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.

How Much DoesRoof Cleaning Cost?

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Roof pressure washing in Stoneleigh 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 Stoneleigh

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

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

Here’s how we approach it:

Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll conduct a detailed assessment of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a before-and-after comparison. We’ll also inform you if any issues should be addressed 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 properly protected in case of any incident, such as tile breakage.

Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed how long the job should take to complete the work and walk you through our procedures.

Preparation

Before Roof Cleaning and moss removal, ground sheeting is placed over any vulnerable plants in preparation for the Soft Wash Cleaning Process.

Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when carrying out moss removal. We clean the gutters once this is done.

First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we remove lichen from the roof, remove built-up moss, and treat roof algae—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 guttering, and any waste material is either recycled where possible or taken away.

Satisfied Customer

At the end, photos are taken of the final outcome, and the customer gives final approval only when 100% pleased with the outcome.

Our Other Services

K-Rend Cleaning

We rely on soft washing techniques to clean exterior render, including K-Rend. When those dark marks are washed off—the ones that can leave walls looking tired—the render looks refreshed.

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

Gutter Cleaning

Frequent gutter clearing is essential to helping direct rainwater safely off your roof. 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 costly repairs over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can unblock and wash your gutters for domestic and business 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 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 soft washing to bring back the natural finish of the stone.

Cladding Cleaning

From aluminium, building cladding naturally collect grime over time and can even become stained if neglected for too long.

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

UPVC Cleaning

Discolouration on UPVC is common, mostly due to algae and grime. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, restoring the material to its like-new look.

Conservatory Cleaning

Just like with other areas, after spending a lot on building a 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 remove stains and surface filth, returning your conservatory to its fresh appearance.

Soft Washing

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. One involves Hypo, while the second uses a greener treatment. The approach we take depends on the material being cleaned and the location.

Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is applied to surfaces like roofs, cladding, and hardscapes such as patios and driveways when a stronger and eco-friendly cleaning method is the best option.
