Thick moss holds water against your tiles, blocks gutters and makes the whole house look neglected. We remove it carefully and leave the roof looking cared for again.

Done properly, explained clearly
Moss, algae and lichen are common on York roofs, especially on north-facing slopes and under trees. Left alone, moss lifts tiles, holds moisture and washes down into the gutters, causing blockages and overflows.
We remove the growth carefully by hand-scraping and controlled cleaning suited to the type of roof, clear the debris from gutters and downpipes, and can apply a treatment to help slow regrowth. Any slipped or damaged tiles we find along the way are reported to you with photos.
What we cover

Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal questions
Anything else you would like to know? Call us on 07338 612197 — we are happy to help.
Is moss bad for my roof?
Heavy moss holds water against the tiles, can lift them and blocks gutters as it washes down. Removing it helps the roof shed water as it should.
Do you pressure wash roofs?
We use the cleaning method that suits the roof covering. Aggressive pressure washing can damage some tiles, so we avoid it where it is not appropriate.
How long does a cleaned roof stay clean?
It depends on the roof and its surroundings. A treatment after cleaning helps slow regrowth considerably.
