Roof Cleaning Services Westcott

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 Westcott 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 Westcott

Questioning the necessity of roof cleaning services? The key benefit is its unmatched effectiveness in moss removal and prevention lasting multiple years. Optimal roof performance requires clear water pathways from surface to gutters to downspouts, directing moisture away from your property. Moss buildup interferes with this process through three mechanisms:

Behaves as a water absorbing sponge, holding moisture against roofing materials
Creates tile damage when water-filled moss undergoes freeze-thaw expansion
Restricts normal rainwater flow

Professional moss removal in the UK employs two established methods. High-pressure washing eliminates moss and surface deposits while restoring original tile beauty. Alternatively, chemical treatment covers the complete roof area with solutions designed to kill all organic matter including moss, algae, and lichen, removing stains and achieving a revitalized appearance.

UpClean provides both cleaning services across Westcott - high-pressure and softwash cleaning options. Method selection is based on roof condition analysis and individual customer preferences.

Restore the Look of Your Roof

Our proven roof cleaning method will dramatically improve the condition of an old and dirty roof into one that looks almost new. Through the removal of all the moss, muck, and residue, we reveal the natural shade and fresh look of the slates or shingles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

Allowing moss to accumulate on a roof can over time cause structural problems and even allow moisture to seep through by widening gaps. Removing moss from the roof helps prevent long-term damage.

Prevent Regrowth

Following the roof cleaning process, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to stop the regrowth of algae, moss, or lichen. This protective layer adds an extra layer of defence and extends its lifespan.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Westcott

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.

Eco Friendly Roof Tile Cleaning

Using a pressure washer for roof cleaning in Westcott 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 Westcott

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

Roof Cleaning is one of our specialist services for domestic homes. We also understand that when on-site at someone’s home, it’s essential to act thoughtfully at all times.

Here’s what we aim to deliver each time:



Site Survey

Before starting any work, we’ll conduct a thorough inspection of the roof’s condition, capturing images for a visual record. 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 show you a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re properly protected in case of any incident, 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 sensitive vegetation if a softwash solution is being used.



Blockage Prevention

Downspouts are temporarily blocked to prevent runoff from clogging the drains, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. Gutter cleaning is completed afterwards.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we clean off roof lichen, clear away moss, and get rid of algae growth—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

When the roof-washing is complete, we treat the surface with a powerful biocide to the whole surface to stop the regrowth of any moss, algae, or similar growth.



Third Stage - Clean up

All surrounding areas are thoroughly cleaned, including the guttering, and any debris is either composted or removed from site.



Satisfied Customer

At the end, we take pictures of the completed work, and the customer gives final approval only when 100% pleased with the outcome.

Our Other Services



K-Rend Cleaning

We use a soft wash approach to clean rendered walls. After clearing away unsightly staining—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

Regular gutter maintenance 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 get inside through roof joints—all of which, if not resolved, can lead to costly repairs over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can both clear and clean your gutters for residential and commercial properties.



Patio & Driveway cleaning

Many property owners spend good money making their gardens, driveways, and patios look great using York stone. These surfaces, like most that are out in the changeable British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both jet washing and chemical-assisted soft wash treatments to bring back the natural finish of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

Be it stainless steel, external cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even become stained if not maintained.

As part of our exterior cleaning services, we provide professional cladding cleaning 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 green algae growth. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, returning it to its like-new look.



Conservatory Cleaning

Similar to your windows and frames, after putting money into a new conservatory, it’s a pity to see it look aged and tired due to algae growth.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques clear away algae and grime, bringing your conservatory to its like-new condition.



Soft Washing

There are two approaches to soft wash cleaning. One uses a Hypo-based solution, while the alternative is a greener treatment. The choice depends on the area in question and the environment.



Pressure Washing

Our pressure washing is ideal for areas including roofs, cladding, patio, and driveway surfaces when a robust and chemical-free cleaning method is the best option.
