How often should I have my roof cleaned?

Most homes benefit from a clean every two to four years, though shaded or coastal roofs that gather moss quickly may need attention more often. A preventive treatment after cleaning helps stretch the time between visits.

Will cleaning damage my tiles or slates?

Not when done properly. A softwash uses low pressure and treatment chemicals rather than harsh jetting, which protects older tiles and mortar. Always ask your cleaner which method they plan to use.

Can a roof cleaner do my gutters and fascias too?

Yes, many roof cleaners also clear gutters and wash fascias and soffits while they are set up on site. Mention it when you request quotes so it is included in the price.

Softwash or steam clean
