Having your roof cleaned is a relatively quick and easy way of improving the look of your house, by getting rid of dirt, moss, lichen and anything else that has accumulated up there.

    Why should I have it cleaned?

    Roof Cleaning Nottinghamshire

    A large build-up of moss, dirt on roof tiles and other organic growth may cause serious problems with your roof and the life expectancy of the tiles will in time be compromised too. If you neglect your roof, you’ll find these plants will quickly grow uncontrollably with their roots finding their way into vulnerable spots in the roof tiles, steadily widening them over the course of time until cracks become visible. Like all living organisms they need water to thrive, and once it has rained, they’ll work like a sponge retaining as much water as possible. Once it finds its way in the cracks into your roof it might well cause serious and expensive destruction to the rafters and joists. Finally you could well discover moss that has dislodged and fallen down the roof ending up in your gutter which can lead to overflowing rainwater from your gutter which damages and soaks into your fascia boards. In conclusion, getting a roof cleaned is a necessary service for a number of reasons.

    For many people though getting their roof cleaned is simply an aesthetic decision and we can’t blame you for that! Roofs can become very unattractive due to organic growths like lichen and moss, and this is when a roof cleaning professional is necessary. Roofs are also often discoloured and stained by a prevalent bacterium called gloeocapsa magma affecting the natural appearance of your otherwise charming home. By all means, this bacteria growth is completely natural but after all it isn’t pleasant to see and after a while it can damage your roof. The difference between a clean roof and one that needs cleaning can be night and day. After years of watching your roof get progressively dirtier wouldn’t it be great to see it looking like brand new like it used to?

    Next you might ask, “Is this a easy DIY job that I should attempt to do myself?” Let’s look at some evidence to propose what the best way to do this is.

    Can I do this myself?

    Roof Cleaning Yourself Osmaston

    The biggest reason why most people don’t want to risk cleaning their own roof is the fact that it involves working at a height where a lot of us wouldn’t feel safe or comfortable. At these kinds of heights any type of slip can lead to a very serious wound.

    Many dodgy tradespeople who carry out this kind of work, claim it’s easy money and that it doesn’t take any skill. How true is that? A service such as this requires a level of experience and skill that we can assure. Using the appropriate roof access equipment, the correct tools and our experience and know-how we can deliver a roof cleaning service that you are happy with without you needing to put yourself in unnecessary danger.

    What is the process?

    Roof Cleaning Before and After

    We will inspect the roof attentively before beginning any work, to identify the best cleaning method to use depending on your roof. Then we will look at what’s growing there and the how best to remove the growth. Then we can start to work on cleansing the roof of organic colonising growths by getting deep into the root system of the moss and destroying the spores. You’ll notice an improvement straight away and continued improvement as time progresses.

    Some things to think about.

    We’ve already looked at some other factors that can affect having your roof cleaned. So, consider just a few more.

    • Size of dwelling and the size of the roof.
    • How much vegetation is growing on the roof.
    • The type of roof – e.g. with a thatched roof, no water is used.
    • How accessible is the roof?
    • Height of the roof.

    Keeping all of the above in mind, it is not worth risking serious injury to yourself or dis-repair to your home by attempting a DIY roof clean. Complete the free quote form or ring us for a free quote, and leave it to the pros.
