Roofs facing open fields
Homes on the edge of the village catch the wind across the fields, and the slopes facing away from the sun stay damp through winter. Moss takes hold along the bottom courses and around roof vents first.
Clumps that break off in a storm end up in the gutters, so roof and gutter cleaning are often booked together.
Older roofs on Old London Road
Some of the older properties have clay tiles or slate that has been in place for many decades. Steam is gentle on old coverings, and we’ll tell you during the survey if any tiles look loose or damaged before work starts.
Post-war semis and bungalows
The post-war semis and bungalows around the village mostly have concrete tiles. Moss builds up along the bottom courses and around vents, and lichen spots the ridge. Hand removal and steam bring the tiles back to an even colour without wearing the surface.
Why we never pressure wash
High-pressure water can erode the surface of tiles, crack older ones and drive water under the laps into the roof space. That’s why we never pressure wash a roof. Hand removal and steam do the job without those risks.

Signs a roof needs cleaning
Thick cushions of moss, clumps landing on the drive and gutters filling up with green debris are all signs it’s time.
