Why Roof Cleaning Matters in Bournemouth

Here in Bournemouth, the damp coastal weather encourages moss, algae, and lichen to grow quickly on roofs. If you’ve noticed green patches or black streaks, they’re more than just an eyesore.

Moss holds moisture, damages tiles, blocks gutters, and weakens the roof structure over time. We’ve seen cracked tiles, internal leaks, and costly repairs that all started with just a bit of moss.

Roof cleaning isn’t just about appearances. It helps prevent expensive problems and keeps your roof doing its job properly.

Our Roof Cleaning Process

We don’t believe in blasting your roof with harsh jets of water. Instead, we use methods that are gentle, safe, and tailored to your roof’s material and condition.

✅ Soft Washing

This low-pressure method removes algae and stains without damaging your tiles.

✅ Manual Roof Moss Removal in Bournemouth

For more delicate roofs, we carefully scrape moss off by hand. It’s precise, effective, and protects fragile tile edges.

✅ Biocide Treatment

After we clean, we treat your roof with AlgoClear Pro. This biodegradable biocide stops moss from growing back for up to 24 months. It’s safe for pets, gardens, and people, too.

✅ Steam Cleaning

Prefer a chemical-free option? Steam cleaning gets the job done using only heat and water.

We’ll recommend the best approach for your home and explain why. No pressure, just straightforward advice.

What Happens After We Clean?

After treatment, your roof will look better and last longer.

  • You’ll see clearer, cleaner tiles within days.
  • Moss won’t regrow for at least a year, often up to two.
  • You can opt into a roof maintenance plan so we keep things in top shape for you.

Add-On Services You Might Need

A clean roof is just the start. While we’re up there, it’s smart to take care of a few other things too.

Gutter Cleaning

We clear gutters and downpipes so rainwater flows freely. This protects your walls, foundations, and roof edges.

Solar Panel Cleaning

Dirty panels don’t perform well. We clean them gently so you get more power and longer lifespan.

Roof Coating

We offer a clear protective coating that repels water and reflects UV. It keeps tiles cleaner for longer and helps prevent future moss buildup.

Driveway Cleaning

We can also clean your driveway, paths, or patio. It’s a great way to give your whole property a fresh finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clean your roof at least once a year to prevent moss, algae, and debris buildup. In humid or forested areas, clean it every 6 months. Regular cleaning extends roof life, maintains curb appeal, and prevents structural damage caused by moisture retention and clogged gutters.

Yes, moss can damage your roof by holding moisture against tiles, leading to rot, frost damage, and leaks. In the UK’s wet climate, moss grows quickly and can lift tiles or block gutters. Removing moss regularly prevents costly repairs and extends the roof’s life.

Cleaning will not hurt your roof if done correctly. Using soft washing with low-pressure water and appropriate cleaning agents prevents damage to tiles and seals. Avoid high-pressure washing, which can strip protective coatings and dislodge tiles, especially on older UK roofs.

The roof cleaning work is carried out by our highly trained and experienced staff by using a specialist cleaning chemical: AlgoClear Pro Softclean.

AlgoClear Pro Softclean is a non-aggressive, high-purity biocide suitable especially for cleaning the surfaces of roofs and walls. Our roof cleaners use this specialized equipment to deliver effective and outstanding results.
