Roof Cleaning in Shirley
Professional soft-wash roof cleaning to remove moss, lichen, and algae from tile and slate roofs — with biocidal treatment to slow re-growth.
Roof Cleaning in Shirley
The concrete interlocking tiles on Shirley's 1930s replacement and original roofs accumulate moss and algae reliably, particularly on north-facing pitches and in valley sections where debris settles. Our soft-wash roof cleaning removes organic growth and applies a biocidal treatment, with results lasting significantly longer than a pressure wash alone. We inspect the roof from ground level before quoting and advise on anything we notice.

Roof Cleaning in Shirley — FAQ
Roof cleaning does not typically require scaffold — we work from ground level using telescopic and extension equipment. If a roof requires access at height, we advise on the appropriate arrangement before the work begins.
The biocidal treatment kills moss and organic growth, but the dead material may not fall away immediately — it typically disperses over the following weeks through rainfall and weathering. The visible green colouration improves significantly from the day of the clean.
