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 Whitley Bay and the wider Tyne and Wear area using softwash, steam and low-pressure methods — moss scraped off by hand where needed, biocide applied to kill what's left at the root, all done from ground level or access equipment rather than walking the tiles.

Scheduling around your location

Because Whitley Bay sits within easy reach of our Washington base, we can usually offer a reasonably prompt booking rather than a long wait for a slot. Weather affects roof cleaning more than most other exterior work, so we build a bit of flexibility into scheduling for wind or heavy rain.

How we clean a roof, step by step

We start with a walk-round survey from ground level to check tile condition, moss coverage and access before any water goes near the roof. Thick moss growth gets hand-scraped off first — never scraped dry against the tile, always carefully, to avoid lifting anything that's already loose.

Once the bulk of the growth is off, we apply a biocide softwash treatment across the whole roof at low pressure. This kills remaining spores and algae at the root rather than just rinsing the surface, which is what keeps regrowth slower afterwards. Gutters get checked and cleared as part of the same visit, since moss and grit inevitably end up in them.

Steam cleaning equipment

  • Where a chemical-free approach suits the job better, we bring a steam unit capable of lifting algae staining and moss residue using heat alone. It's a good option for smaller roof areas or where biocide isn't preferred near ponds, planting or a vegetable patch below.
