Expert Moss Removal and Roof Cleaning in the City of London

Every roof requires a slightly different approach depending on its age, material, and condition. We never rely on a one-size-fits-all method. Here is how we ensure a thorough and safe clean for your property:1. Initial Drone Roof Survey: Before anyone steps foot on your property, we often deploy a drone to inspect the area. This allows us to spot existing cracked tiles, failing mortar on the ridge, or sagging areas without causing further damage. It is a completely safe way to assess the structural integrity of the roof.2. Safe Manual Clearance: We gently and meticulously remove the bulk of the moss using specialised hand tools. We avoid aggressive pressure washing on fragile older roofs, as this can strip the protective granular coating off concrete tiles and damage delicate slate.3. Anti-Fungal Treatment: Once the heavy debris is cleared, we apply a high-quality biocidal wash. This penetrates the porous surfaces of the tiles, killing off remaining algae and lichen spores to prevent future regrowth.4. Gutter Clearance: Finally, we ensure all dislodged moss is completely cleared from your gutters and downpipes, leaving your roofline functioning perfectly.

The City of London features a unique mix of historic buildings and modern developments.

Do you use high-pressure washing on roofs?We assess every roof individually. While pressure washing can be used on certain modern, robust surfaces, we generally avoid it on older clay or slate tiles. Aggressive jet washing can strip the protective layer from tiles and force water under the lap, causing leaks. We prefer a safer manual scrape followed by a soft-wash biocide treatment.How long does the anti-fungal treatment take to work?Our biocide treatments begin working immediately to kill algae and lichen spores. While you will see an instant improvement from the manual moss removal, the biocide continues to self-clean the roof over the following weeks and months, activated by natural rainfall.Will my gutters be left full of moss?Absolutely not. Part of our comprehensive service includes thoroughly clearing out your fascias, soffits, and guttering once the roof tile cleaning is complete. We leave your property tidy and your drainage systems flowing freely.
