⚠️ What could be hiding beneath the moss on your roof?
Moss build-up affects more than the appearance of your roof. A thorough roof clean can sometimes reveal issues that may otherwise go unnoticed.
During last week’s roof clean, I uncovered broken tiles and cement that was beginning to move. These are important issues to be aware of, as they could potentially cause further problems if left unchecked.
That’s why every roof I clean is hand-scraped, with the moss carefully removed and the tile edges brushed. This also allows me to check for visible defects as I work.
After the moss has been removed, I apply professional-strength biocide to help eliminate remaining growth and slow down regrowth. While treating the roof, I keep the gutters clear and running so excess chemical and debris do not sit in them or wash down the drain. Any excess chemical is collected and placed on suitable hard surfaces, such as chuckies, lock block or tarmac, rather than being taken away. Gutters are emptied, and all mess is cleared away.

A roof clean is about more than improving the look of your property — it’s also a chance to identify potential issues before they develop into bigger concerns.
