Roof moss removal, St Helens
Concrete tiles covered in moss along every course, with more washing down into the gutters and valley. Moss scraped off by hand, biocide applied and the gutters cleared.
Roof moss removal
Moss on the roof is what fills most gutters. We remove it from the tiles and treat the roof to slow it coming back, then clear the gutters so nothing is left to wash down.

How we do it
- Scrape the moss off. Moss is scraped from the tiles by hand, without high pressure on the roof.
- Apply biocide. The roof is treated with a biocide that kills off remaining growth and slows it coming back.
- Clear the gutters. Everything that comes off the roof is cleared out of the gutters before we leave.

Every roof is priced from your photos, including clearing the gutters afterwards.
When to do it
Autumn and winter are the best time: moss is easy to see, the roof is less likely to be baking hot, and clearing it now stops it filling the gutters through the wettest months. Read how often gutters should be cleared if your gutters block every year.
Booking a roof clean with a gutter clear and a fascia and soffit wash gets the whole roofline done in one visit.
Questions
Will you pressure wash my roof?
No. We scrape the moss off the tiles by hand and then apply a biocide treatment, rather than blasting the roof with high pressure.
How long does the treatment take to work?
The treatment keeps working after we leave. Remaining growth dies back over the following weeks and rain washes it off.
Does moss damage a roof?
Thick moss holds water against the tiles, can lift them at the edges and sheds into the gutters, which then overflow. Removing it protects both.
Do you clear the gutters as well?
Yes. We always clear the gutters after a roof clean, because moss from the roof ends up in them.
