British Roof Cleaning are the primary roof cleaning member of the The Roofing Club. Together, we are predominantly using a modern soft wash methodology to achieve 100% moss removal, elimination of green organic matter and general grime. Unlike pressure washing, soft washing does not carry the risk of damaging your roof tiles or roofing structure. Careful manual brushing manpower is combined with the methodical application of a chemical treatment to create visually pleasing results.
Unlike general roofing, not every city, town and village in the UK has a reliable roofer that exclusively specialises in safe and effective roof cleaning. Therefore a number of have-a-go-heroes have exploded into action with mixed results. From window cleaners to handymen with a ladders, UK roof cleaning can be a wild landscape. We do no judge ambitious tradesman who want to try a new skill, but we believe corners should not be cut in this moss removal pursuit. Our small pool of vetted professionals come from a construction and roofing background before choosing to narrow down into roof clean specialists.

Is Soft Wash Roof Cleaning Worth It?
We believe a clean roof is a healthy roof. Moss removal is an often overlooked part of roof maintenance. A clear roof is essential to preventing more substantial future roof repair work. Moss that accumulates on roof tiles has a tendency to reek havoc on your building and can lead to costly roofing services being urgently required. For example untreated moss will:
- Fall into gutters causing blockages that lead to overflows during rainy season
- Repeated blocked gutters that lead to more serious drainage problems
- Get in between and into your roof tiles, lifting them up and/or cracking them
- Lead to roof tile degradation that causes the internal roof structure to become damaged (for example rain water eventually rotting roof battens etc.)
- Cause damp to develop inside your building; often seen in upstairs landings, bathrooms and bedrooms
As well as causing damage to the structures of your building, moss can also just become a pain in the backside! Many of our more mature customers often state that they’ve simple “had enough” of continually bending over to pick up moss from the ground.
Moss is also unsightly and can raise questions for potential buyers should you be considering selling your property. Surveyors often include roof moss removal as a recommendation on a home buyers report. To our knowledge, most insurers don’t cover moss accumulation in their coverage, however they will expect you to resolve the consequences of untreated moss accumulation!
