Moss and grime on Longfield roofs
Kent's mix of wet winters and tree cover means moss, algae and lichen build up on tiles and slate faster than most homeowners expect. A roof cleaner working in Longfield will usually start with a full assessment before recommending a softwash, a manual scrape, or a combination of both, depending on how established the growth is and how the roof was built.
What the job typically covers
- Roof softwashing to lift algae and moss without damaging tiles
- Moss removal from valleys, ridges and ledges where it collects
- Roof tile and slate cleaning to restore colour and shed water properly
- Fascia and soffit cleaning to finish the job
- Preventive treatments to slow regrowth
Softwash versus pressure washing
A roof softwash uses biocide treatments rather than high pressure jets, which matters on older or more fragile tiles. Pressure washing can strip protective granules and force water under tiles, so most local roof cleaners lean towards softwashing unless the roof is genuinely built for it.
