Moss, algae, and lichen are more than just an aesthetic issue for London homeowners. In the damp UK climate, moss acts like a sponge, holding water against your tiles. During winter, this water freezes and expands, causing “frost-heaving” which cracks tiles and leads to expensive leaks.
At Jade Roofing Experts, we provide specialist roof cleaning in London. We don’t use aggressive, high-pressure water jets that strip the protective granular surface off your tiles. Instead, we use a combination of manual scraping and professional-grade Soft Washing to clean and protect your property.
Benefits of professional roof cleaning include:
Careful removal of moss buildup without damaging tiles or fixings.
Low-pressure application of biocidal solutions to kill moss, algae, and lichen at the root.
Ensuring all debris removed from the roof is cleared from drainage systems.
Optional treatments to slow moss regrowth and protect your roof longer.
