Roof Cleaning Services Wotton

Professional roof cleaning is an economical way to instantly boost the curb appeal of your home and preserve the integrity of your roofing. A thorough cleaning removes troublesome moss, algae, lichen, and unattractive dark staining.

The results of a professional clean are striking. Tiles that were previously weather-beaten and darkened with age will noticeably brighten, often appearing refreshed and nearly new.

Many homeowners in Wotton rely on specialist roof cleaning services primarily to restore their home's exterior attractiveness. Additionally, addressing significant moss growth is essential, as untreated moss can damage roofing tiles and lead to water entering the property.

Roof Moss Removal Wotton

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 Wotton. 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 cleaning process will completely transform the condition of an aged and stained roof into one that appears freshly installed. By removing all the built-up filth and staining, we bring back the original colour and fresh look of the slates or shingles.

Prevent Damage & Water Ingress

When moss gathers on a roof can gradually harm the roof surface and even let water in by creating cracks. Getting rid of moss from the roof reduces the risk of long-term damage.

Prevent Regrowth

After the roof has been cleaned, it is sprayed with a preventative solution to discourage the return of algae, moss, or lichen. This step helps protect the roof and contributes to roof durability.

Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Wotton

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

Pressure washing your roof is among the most environmentally responsible cleaning techniques available in Wotton. Since this method exclusively uses water (H₂O), it naturally and effectively clears away moss, algae, dirt, and lichen without chemicals.

Despite occasional reports of roof damage from high-pressure methods, the risk is minimised by hiring experienced, professionally trained, and insured cleaners who use the correct equipment to ensure optimal outcomes.

Apart from cleaning patios and driveways, pressure washing provides superior results for roofs by effectively removing moss, algae, lichen, and other growths, revitalising tiles or slates to their original appearance. To prevent regrowth of moss and algae, a biocide is usually applied after cleaning. A detailed inspection precedes any cleaning, and if roof tiles are found to be older or fragile, professionals will opt for a safer, softer cleaning method.

UpClean Roof Cleaners – What to Expect from our Service in Wotton

At UpClean, we specialise in clearing moss from roof tiles without causing damage. We’re committed to providing a reliable experience and delivering a spotless roof for every customer.

Roof Cleaning is one of our specialist services for domestic homes. We also are aware 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

Prior to beginning the job, we’ll carry out a full survey of the roof’s condition, taking photos for a visual record. We’ll also let you know if any repairs are recommended before we proceed.



Industry Compliant

When we arrive, we’ll introduce ourselves and show you a copy of our insurance, proving that we’re fully insured in case of any accident, such as cracked slates.



Customer Liaise

You’ll be informed on the estimated duration to complete the work and go over 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 avoid blockages during cleaning, especially when removing heavy moss buildup. The gutters are cleared after the main roof work.



First Stage - Roof Cleaning

This is the stage we remove lichen from the roof, clear away moss, and perform roof algae removal—all in one go.



Second Stage - Biocide Treatment

Once roof-washing is finished, we apply a high-grade biocide over the full roof area 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 final outcome, and the customer signs off on the job 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 regains its original look.

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 overfilled, water can spill over the sides of the property and may even leak into the roof—all of which, if ignored, can lead to serious damage over time.

We offer full Gutter Cleaning services and can both clear and clean 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 surfaces, like most that are out in the changeable British weather, can become extremely dirty over time.

Our Patio & Driveway cleaning services include both high-powered cleaning and soft washing to revive the clean look of the stone.



Cladding Cleaning

From stainless steel, external cladding will eventually get dirty over time and can even become stained if neglected for too long.

As part of our external property care, we provide dedicated cladding treatments designed to not only remove dirt, but also bring it back to as close to its original condition as possible.



UPVC Cleaning

UPVC often becomes discoloured, mostly due to the buildup of green residue. Our UPVC Cleaning method removes this dirt and filth, bringing the finish back to its like-new look.



Conservatory Cleaning

As with UPVC surfaces, after investing heavily in your conservatory, it’s a pity to see it look aged and tired due to grime and staining.

That’s why our gentle yet effective Conservatory Cleaning techniques remove stains and surface filth, 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 second uses a environmentally conscious treatment. The approach we take depends on the material being cleaned and the location.



Pressure Washing

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