Can you clean a painted roof?

The short answer is yes. The long answer is as follows:

When moss is removed from a painted roof, it very often removes some of the paint with it, especially if it has been allowed to grow for some time. This is not the cleaners error. This will happen as the moss sticks to the coating and then leaves as it is removed. So what can you do about it?

1. Remove the moss via a gentle deep clean

2. Treat the roof with a biocide product which will kill any remaining spores and carry on protecting the roof from regrowth for some time.

3. When completely clean, have a roof paint respray . This can be in a number of different colours. Always use a reputable company and ask for references of their work. Last thing you want at this point is to employ someone who will not complete the job efficiently.

4. sit back and look at your amazing roof!

We know that this can be a costly exercise, however if your roof is in need of some TLC and is looking worse for wear then it can be a good investment. This will certainly increase the value of your property in the long term. No-one really wants to take on a property with a patchy painted roof!

Let’s talk about safe access

Obviously this is an example of a domestic property that only required a scaffolding. The softwash process enables our team not to get on the roof at all which is quite appealing to some home owners. We are however trained to work at height, we are rope and harness trained and can access the roof safely. We also have an IPAF license for use in larger properties and warehousing/commercial premises. In our initial site visits we can assess the correct pice of equipment for your requirements, but bear in mind this will be with safety of our team in mind. We will not scrimp on the price of access for their sake.

We are happy to discuss access with you-please ask at the site meeting and we can go through it with you. Our certificates are also available to view on our website.

Where can I find moss prevention treatments?

Where can you go to find long term moss prevention treatments? Once the moss has been removed, how do we keep it away?

When we create a bespoke quotation for a customer, we always recomend that the roof be treated with a professional strength biocide which is a product which has an effect over time. It kills the moss immediately, however it continues to work over time to self clean the roof and make it look aesthetically improved.

However, some people have had their roofs cleaned by other companies (we arent offended by this!) They may have removed the moss, but maybe they didnt treat it? Maybe it wasnt a service that was offered at the time. Or maybe you have a discoloration due to yellow lichen on the ridges that needs a treatment.

We are happy to provide a quotation for this-the yellow lichen that we can see is a good sign in the fact that our air is cleaner, however it does attach itself to our roofs and can look unsightly. We will have a look at your property and very often our treatment can be applied by the safety of the floor using long reach poles. We can be gone within a couple of hours.

Ask us for some information or book a free of charge consultation and wwe can discuss your requirements.
