Product Information

If it sounds too good, it usually is. I am referring to the quotation for cleaning your roof. Low quotes are the rogue trader’s way of getting work. You have read examples above about how much you can expect to pay dependent upon which part of the country you live in. If you get quotes that are way below the average cost of roof cleaning, then I would be on my guard. A large roofing company that has ten employees or more will have higher costs than a small to medium-sized company. Larger companies have higher overheads to pay.

Roofs can be cleaned in all but the harshest weather conditions. It is always advisable to avoid windy days and for best results apply the products when the tiles and green growth are relatively dry. This will ensure the products are absorbed into the roots of the green growth and the cleaner soaks into the tiles. Temperatures between around 8 – 20°C are ideal. There is a risk of the products evaporating before they have had a chance to work properly if applied when the weather is too warm! Safety First Another option for environmentally conscious homeowners is a product called Safewash. This product is super environmentally safe and is designed to clean roofs without damaging the environment or harming wildlife. Most people who have their roofs cleaned tend to have it cleaned for aesthetic reasons. That’s not to say that a severe build-up of lichen, dirt, and moss on the roofwill not shorten the lifespan of the tiles. Roof Cleaning Getting Quotes for Roof Cleaning Prices The Patented Airpole ® Roof Cleaning System uses compressed air to clear and clean the moss and debris off roofs and then applies a variety of treatment chemicals – including ‘softwash’ chemicals where required – sanitising the roof surface and transforming the appearance of the property.An experienced roof cleaning company should have no trouble looking at your roof and giving you an accurate estimate of how long it will take. Your roof is exposed to the elements, which can cause a buildup of debris such as leaves, branches, and dirt. If left unattended, this debris can lead to the growth of moss and algae on your roof. Moss can be particularly problematic as it can cause damage to your roof tiles or shingles. It can also retain moisture, which can lead to leaks and other water damage. Making the wrong choice may cause disastrous consequences. You could end up paying well over the odds or getting someone who doesn’t know how to do the job properly. The worst-case scenario is they take your money upfront and leave without doing any work. The cost of roof cleaning can vary depending on the size of the roof and its pitch, as well as how accessible it is for the cleaning crew.

The best technique for cleaning your roof is to scrape off any moss or debris using a roof scraper or wire brush. Once the surface is clear, a softwashing chemical should be applied to kill any remaining moss or algae. Softwashing is a low-pressure washing method that uses a chemical solution to clean and kill moss and other organic matter. One of the best selling softwash roof treatment products on the market is Soft Wash Pro 50. This product is specially formulated to kill moss and algae on roofs and other surfaces. Steam cleaning is the most eco-friendly option as it doesn’t use any nasty chemicals. The steam will kill any moss and weeds and remove them from the roof. It will also leave your roof looking brand new.The most significant factor to take into account is, which part of the country do you live? If you live in London, you can expect to pay more because the cost of living is much higher than the rest of the country. Generally, the more populated the city you live in, the more competition there is for tradespeople. Believe it or not, even simple things like car parking can affect the final cost. All costs are taken into account.
