Why one side goes green
We often see bungalow roofs where the back slope is thick with moss while the front looks almost clean, simply because of which way the house faces. The shaded side stays damp after rain, and moss loves it. Chalet bungalows add dormers and extra valleys where debris collects and moss gets an early start.
Cleaning both slopes together gives an even look and stops the moss on the back washing into the gutters every time it rains.
Seafront roads and inland streets
On the roads nearest King’s Parade and Holland Haven, roofs are more exposed, and salt staining and lichen are more common than thick moss. Inland, towards Little Holland, garden trees shade more roofs and moss builds up faster.
Conservatories, sunrooms, porches and garages bring extra roofs to think about. They can be surveyed at the same time as the house, and conservatory roof cleaning is a separate service priced by home size, from £80.
Close to our base
Bungalow roofs are often quicker to clean than taller homes, and the survey gives you a firm price for the whole job, including any porch or garage roof alongside.
Bungalow roofs show moss early
A bungalow roof sits low and is often fairly shallow, so it stays damp after rain and shows moss early. The rear slope, shaded by the house itself or a neighbour’s extension, usually turns green first.
Conservatories and sunrooms bring more roof to look after, and moss falling from the main roof can land on them. Our hand and steam method suits all of these roofs.
Roofs on the bungalow roads are often similar from house to house, so neighbours sometimes book together, and each roof is still priced individually after its own survey. Porch roofs over front doors are included where needed.
Never pressure washed
Hand removal and steam cleaning are the only methods we use on roofs. The first job is clearing the moss by hand, including the clumps in the valleys. Steam is far gentler on old clay and slate than a pressure washer would be. You’ll have a firm price and an explanation of the method before we start.
Garages and outbuildings
Around Holland-on-Sea, garages, sheds, porches and garden buildings often have the mossiest roofs of all, being low and close to trees. They can be surveyed alongside the house and cleaned on the same visit.
