The Problem

Professional Avoids Unnecessary Damage

Pressure washers, aggressive chemicals, or improper techniques can easily damage your tiles or shingles, causing leaks or structural problems that cost far more to repair than professional cleaning would have cost in the first place.

Our experienced team understands how to clean roofs safely and effectively without causing damage.

Proper Equipment & Techniques

Our experienced roof cleaners use specialised equipment—not just supermarket-bought chemicals and a garden hose. Our tools and techniques achieve results that simply aren’t possible with DIY methods. Every roof is different, and we tailor our approach to suit its materials and condition, ensuring a thorough cleaning without damage.

Safety

It may sound straightforward, but roof cleaning is a hazardous job.

Each year, hundreds of people across the UK suffer serious injuries from falls while attempting roof maintenance themselves.

How I Clean Your Roof Safely

Survey and Photos

I start with a camera pole from the ground, then a roof ladder inspection where safe. I check the tile type, ridge condition, and access. You get clear photos of the moss build-up and any broken tiles I spot.

Careful Moss Removal

Heavy moss is removed by hand using specialist roof scrapers and brushes. We do not blast it off. All debris is lowered to the ground in bags or via a chute, never swept straight into your gutters.

Biocide Soft Wash Treatment

I apply a professional-grade biocide at low pressure. It soaks into the tile and into the remaining lichen. The roof will look much better on the day, and the treatment keeps working for 60 to 90 days afterwards. You will see the tiles continue to lighten as the moss dies off completely.

Gutter Clearance and Final Rinse

Gutter clearing is included in every roof clean. I flush gutters and downpipes, rinse your driveway and patio below, and complete a final walk-around with you. I also provide after photos for your records.

What Makes Us Stand Out

Cost-Effective in the Long Run

Let’s be practical here: hiring a professional roof cleaner in Lymm is a sensible investment. DIY cleaning may seem cheaper initially, but factor in equipment hire, solution/chemical costs, your own valuable time, and the potential risk of damage or injury. We provide a hassle-free, efficient roof cleaning service in Lymm with –no hidden costs, saving you time and money in the long run.

Correct Identification of Potential Issues

Apart from simply getting rid of moss from your roof and cleaning it, we can spot problems early. We know exactly what to look for. If you have cracked tiles, loose fittings, or any underlying issues, we can offer clear advice. Early detection prevents small issues from becoming expensive repairs later.

Before & After: Real Transformations In Lymm

Our services

Every Roof Type Treated — the Right Way

Clay & Concrete Tiles

The most common roof type in Sale, Timperley, and Cheadle. A soft wash clean followed by a full biocide treatment. Moss lifts and washes away naturally over the following weeks — no scraping that damages the tile surface.

Natural Slate

Found on many Victorian and Edwardian properties in Didsbury, Chorlton, and Altrincham. Slate is delicate — the wrong pressure or the wrong chemical can cause irreversible surface damage. David uses an ultra-low pressure approach with a pH-neutral cleaning solution specifically suited to natural stone.

Concrete & Fibre Cement Tiles

Common on 1960s–1980s builds across Sale and Stockport. These tiles are porous and absorb algae deeply. David uses a dwell-time treatment — applied and left to work — rather than scrubbing that can erode the surface coating.

Flat Roofs (EPDM, Felt & GRP)

Garage roofs, extensions, and bay window roofs. Flat surfaces collect standing water and grow algae quickly. David cleans and treats flat roofs with a low-pressure wash and a biocide safe for rubber and felt membranes — without risking joints or seams.

Ridge & Mortar Repointing

While cleaning at roof height, David often spots loose or failed mortar around ridge tiles — a common cause of leaks in South Manchester’s wet winters. He can repoint ridge tiles on the same visit, securing them before they shift or fall.

Gutter Clearing & Fascia Wash

Every roof clean includes a full gutter clear. David also offers a fascia and soffit wash — removing the black streaking that builds up beneath gutters and makes an otherwise clean roof line look neglected.

My team and I work across these towns almost every week

Roof cleaned

Since 2007

What do you get with me

What I will never do is dress this up as more than it is.

Roof moss removal is one of the smartest bits of maintenance a homeowner can do. Moss holds moisture, and moisture sitting against tiles and pointing long enough will cost you far more than a clean ever will.

My 5 member team and I have cleaned over 2,000 properties since 2007.

Roof moss removal is a core service from late summer through to spring.

I am City & Guilds Qualified. I hold PA1 and PA6 spraying certificates.

This means I am legally qualified to mix and apply the professional biocide that kills moss and lichen at the root. It is safe for pets and gardens when applied correctly.

I do not use high pressure on roof tiles, ever.

My scrape and biocide method removes what you see today and kills the spores you cannot see.

In the North West climate, that keeps a roof clear for three to four years.

FAQ

Roof Cleaning FAQ's

Will your method damage my roof tiles?

No. Damage is caused by high pressure water. My method is recommended and approved by tile manufacturers. It uses hand tools and a low-pressure spray that is gentler than a rainstorm. If your roof is unsuitable, I will tell you at the survey stage.

Do you walk on the roof?

No, I do not walk on your roof. I work from a ground, mobile tower or MEWP.

How long the roof will stay clean?

After my treatment, most roofs in Cheshire and Manchester stay largely moss-free for three to four years. Heavily shaded or north-facing roofs under trees may need attention sooner. The biocide provides long-term protection, unlike a simple wash.

Do you make a mess of the garden?

No. This is a key part of the service. We sheet sensitive plants, collect the bulk of the moss, and thoroughly rinse all paths, patios and driveways before we leave.

Can you clean my roof in winter?

Yes. Autumn and winter are the best times for biocide application in the UK. The damp conditions help the treatment absorb. I work year-round, weather permitting, and never work in high wind or frost.

Why is your method better than a cheap pressure wash?

A pressure wash looks impressive for a few weeks because it leaves live spores behind. My biocide kills the growth at the root. Over four years, my method works out less expensive because you pay once, not annually.

My roof was cleaned a few years ago and the moss came back quickly. Why would this time be different?

In almost every case where moss returns quickly after a clean, the cause is the same — the previous company did not apply a biocide treatment. Removing visible moss without treating the underlying biological growth simply clears the surface temporarily. The root structures remain and regrowth is rapid. Our process treats the cause, not the symptom, which is why our results last considerably longer than a standard pressure wash.

Ready for an honest assessment?

Send me photos of your roof. I will identify your roof tile type and give you a fixed price the same day.
