The finish holds too. Because biocide treatment kills spores at root level rather than just blasting the visible growth off, regrowth is slower and the roof stays presentable for a lot longer than a rushed jet-wash job ever manages.

Softwashing does the opposite: low pressure, a biocide that kills moss and algae rather than just knocking it off, and hand-scraping for anything too thick to treat straight away. It takes longer than jet-washing but it's the method that actually protects the roof underneath the growth, which is the whole point.

Homeowners

New to a property and inheriting a mossy roof

If you've recently taken on a house in Whitburn and the roof clearly hasn't been touched in a good few years, that's a common and very fixable starting point. We'll survey the roof, tell you honestly whether it's a straightforward softwash or needs a fuller scrape first, and get it back to a condition you can maintain going forward.

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.

Heavy moss scrape and full treatment

  1. 1

    Detailed survey

    For roofs with significant moss buildup we assess coverage slope by slope, since heavier growth often needs more time than a standard clean.

  2. 2

    Debris containment

    Ground sheets and gutter guards go down first to stop scraped moss and grit washing into drains or planting.

  3. 3

    Full hand scrape

    Moss is scraped off by hand across every affected slope, working methodically from ridge to eave.

  4. 4

    Biocide treatment

    Once the roof is clear of loose growth, biocide is applied across the whole surface to kill root-level spores.

  5. 5

    Gutter and downpipe clear

    Everything dislodged during scraping is cleared from gutters and checked through to the downpipes.

  6. 6

    Final inspection

    We do a final check from access equipment for any missed patches or tiles that need flagging to a roofer.
