Newcastle City Council · NE2 · 7.1 miles north-west of our Washington base

Left alone it doesn't stop at looking untidy. Trapped moisture works into laps and nail fixings, slates start to slip, and gutters fill with the grit that washes off as it rains. A proper clean and biocide treatment stops that cycle before it turns into a repair bill.

Cleaning is possible for most of the year, but treating moss before it fully establishes for the next growing season makes the biocide work harder for you. A treatment now sits on the roof through the following autumn and winter rather than getting applied after the damage is already done.

We clean roofs across NE2 and the surrounding postcodes using softwash, steam or low-pressure methods depending on the roof, always working from ground level or access equipment rather than walking the tiles. It's a slower way of working, but it's the one that doesn't crack a slate to save ten minutes.

Part of our North East coverage area

Jesmond sits within the roughly 45-mile radius we cover from our Washington base, alongside Heaton and Gosforth nearby. Wherever you are in that area, the same softwash, steam and low-pressure methods and the same access-equipment approach apply.

Biocide treatment

  • The core product on most jobs is a professional-grade biocide designed to kill moss, lichen and algae at the root rather than just stripping visible growth off the surface. Applied evenly across the whole roof at low pressure, it keeps working after we've left, which is what slows regrowth compared with a rinse-only clean.

Safety and access come before the clean itself

Every roof job starts with how we're going to reach the roof safely, not with the cleaning method. Wherever possible we work from ground level with extension poles, or from a cherry picker or podium for higher and steeper roofs, rather than walking the tiles — that's both a safety decision and the single best way to avoid cracking or slipping anything up there.

We're fully insured, biocide trained, and follow proper spill management practice so nothing runs off into guttering, drains or planting where it shouldn't. Where a roof has visible asbestos-containing material, our asbestos awareness training means we know to treat it differently and flag it rather than clean straight over it.

Fitting access equipment to your street

Terraced streets, tight driveways and shared parking all affect what access equipment we can realistically use on the day, so we ask about parking and street width when booking rather than turning up and finding out. Most jobs work fine with a cherry picker or podium parked on-street; some need a bit more planning.
