Graham Bell • Mar 28, 2023

One of the most popular services we offer for local homeowners is roof cleaning. No matter the shape and size of your home, this service can help to keep you and your family safe as well as maintain a great first impression for anyone who approaches your home. Today we’re going to share our complete guide to roof cleaning, including what you should consider when booking this service and how often roof cleaning is needed.


When is Roof Cleaning Needed?

The question of how often roof cleaning is needed is something we are regularly asked. Roof cleaning is a service you may choose to invest in if you notice a lot of moss building up, but it’s a service we recommend everyone considers booking once or twice a year. Roof cleaning aims to restore the look of your roof, helping to create a better overall aesthetic and first impression for your home. Regular roof cleaning can also stop a build-up of debris and dirt, which could be detrimental to the overall structure of your home in the long run.


Deep Cleaning or Soft Cleaning – Which Type of Roof Cleaning Do I Need?

Our team offers two types of roof cleaning – deep cleaning and soft cleaning. Both have their own uses and benefits, so you’ll want to think carefully about which is the most suitable for your current concerns. Deep roof cleaning will use a petrol high powered jet washer, which helps to remove any discolouration and moss that’s built up on the rooftop. For older and weaker tiling and roofs, we recommend soft cleaning. This type of cleaning doesn’t offer as much pressure as deep cleaning, but it’s ideal for styles of roof that aren’t able to benefit from deep cleaning. Our team will inspect your roof to help you decide which will be the safest and most effective option for your needs.




What are the Benefits of Roof Cleaning?

There are many benefits of regular roof cleaning. The number one thing you’ll notice is that it can save your roof from future damage, which can help to reduce your repairs and bills in the long run. By eliminating algae, debris, and dirt from your roof, you’ll find the kerb appeal of your home increases. This is especially important if you are thinking of putting your home on the market soon, as the roof is one of the first things anyone notices when they approach your home. The lifespan of your roof will be significantly lengthened when you regularly maintain and clean it, with some homeowners seeing no regrowth for a whopping 10 years after working with us.


As you can see, there are many reasons to consider regular roof cleaning for your commercial or domestic property. Our team will be here to support you with this task and ensure you choose the right type of roof cleaning service for your unique needs.
