Why Should You Clean Your Roof?

Over time, the roof of your home will naturally collect moss, algae, dirt, bird droppings and other debris. While it might seem like just a cosmetic issue at first, a dirty roof can actually lead to bigger problems, such as:

  • Blocked gutters
  • Leaks into your home
  • Damaged or loose tiles
  • Damp patches on ceilings or walls
  • Reduced roof lifespan

Moss and algae hold onto moisture, and this can cause tiles to weaken or shift. If this happens, water can start to get in under the tiles and into your loft or attic. This is why regular roof cleaning is a smart way to protect your home.

Our Roof Cleaning Process

At Simple Clean Roofs, we take great care when cleaning your roof. Our experienced team uses the safest and most suitable method for your particular roof type. We don’t use harsh tools or strong chemicals – just reliable techniques that get results.

Step-by-Step:

We start by taking a close look at your roof to understand what it needs. We’ll check for moss, lichen, stains, dirt build-up and signs of damage.
Thick moss is removed by hand using gentle tools. We never rush or scrape at your tiles – we take our time to remove it properly.
Once the roof is clear of moss, we apply a specialist biocide (a safe solution) that kills any remaining spores. This helps stop moss from coming back quickly.
For dirty or stained tiles, we use a soft wash or low-pressure steam method to lift away grime without causing damage.
All moss and debris is cleared away and taken off site. We leave your home tidy – just as we found it.

Safe, Gentle and Effective

We never use high-pressure jet washers on your roof, as this can damage tiles or force water under them. Instead, we use trusted low-pressure and soft cleaning methods, approved for domestic roof cleaning.

Our team is fully trained, insured, and experienced in working at height. We use ladders, access platforms or scaffold towers depending on the job, and always put safety first.

Benefits of Roof Cleaning

A clean roof can make a big difference. Here’s what you’ll get:

  • A fresh, well-kept look for your home
  • Lower chance of leaks and roof problems
  • Longer life for your tiles and roof structure
  • Better drainage, with less chance of blocked gutters
  • Improved property value and kerb appeal

Many of our customers are surprised at how much better their homes look after a simple roof clean – especially those looking to sell or just tired of seeing green moss and black streaks on their tiles.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. We use soft, gentle methods that are safe for all common roof types. We never use high-pressure washing that could break or lift your tiles.

It depends on the size of your roof and how much moss or dirt there is. Most jobs take between half a day to a full day. We’ll give you a clear idea before we start.

Moss will eventually grow back, but we apply a biocide treatment that slows down the process and keeps your roof looking clean for longer – often several years.

Yes, of course. There’s no need to leave. We work safely and respectfully, and you’ll barely notice we’re there apart from the improved roof!

Absolutely. We always take away all moss, dirt and mess, leaving your garden paths, driveways and outdoor areas just as we found them.
