Roof Cleaning & Moss Removal in Wickford
Roofs naturally collect moss, algae, lichen and dirt over time, particularly in shaded or damp areas. A professional clean can dramatically improve the appearance of the property while removing heavy organic growth.
Rayleigh Jet Washing provides professional roof cleaning throughout Wickford using the most suitable method for the roof surface, its condition and the access available.
Our roof cleaning methods
How We Clean Roofs
Every roof is different. We choose the method according to the roof surface, condition and the result we are trying to achieve.
Roof Pressure Washing
Pressure washing is our main cleaning method on suitable tiled roofs. It removes moss, algae, dirt and weather staining and gives an immediate, visibly cleaner finish.
Pressure and technique are adjusted to the roof rather than simply using maximum pressure.
Steam Roof Cleaning
Steam cleaning uses heated water at lower pressure and can be a better option for older, more delicate or sensitive roof surfaces.
This gives us another option when conventional pressure washing is not the most suitable approach.
Manual Roof Scraping
We can manually scrape heavier moss growth where appropriate before applying a treatment.
We generally favour pressure or steam cleaning where the roof allows because it provides a more complete immediate clean.
Longer Lasting Results
Roof Biocide Treatment in Wickford
Cleaning removes the visible moss and dirt. A professional biocide treatment helps deal with remaining organic contamination and slows down the return of moss and algae.
The treatment is applied after the roof has been cleaned and continues working after we leave. This makes it an excellent finishing treatment for customers who want their roof to stay cleaner for longer.
- Slows moss regrowth
- Controls algae
- Ideal after cleaning
- Maintenance friendly
Included as Standard
We Don't Just Clean the Roof and Leave the Mess Behind
Roof cleaning can create a surprising amount of moss and mess. Our normal process includes the clean-up work needed to leave the property tidy.
✓ Gutters Cleared
Moss and debris created during the roof clean are cleared from the gutters as part of the normal service.
✓ Building Washed Down
Walls, windows, fascias, soffits and other affected surfaces are washed down after the roof has been cleaned.
✓ Surrounding Areas Rinsed
Patios, driveways and surrounding surfaces affected by the clean are rinsed and tidied before we leave.
✓ No Surprise Add-On Charge
The standard clean-up process is already part of the roof cleaning service rather than being charged separately.
Safe Working
Professional Roof Cleaning Access
For houses, we normally work from a professional scaffold tower, giving us controlled access to the roof while reducing unnecessary movement across the tiles.
For many bungalows, roof cleaning can be carried out from ground level using specialist telescopic equipment, provided there is suitable access around the property.
We determine the access requirements before the work begins and explain the proposed method as part of the quotation.
Don't Waste the Moss
Roof cleaning can produce a lot of moss — and it can be genuinely useful around the garden.
Many customers choose to keep it for compost heaps, flower beds, planters, shrubs and surrounding garden areas. Where suitable, we’re happy to place it in a designated area of the property.
If you’d prefer everything removed completely, we can arrange disposal for an additional charge.
3-Year Roof Maintenance Treatment
You don’t necessarily need to wait until the roof becomes heavily covered in moss again.
Around three years after the original clean, we can return and reapply the professional biocide treatment. This helps control new organic growth, refresh the appearance of the roof and extend the time before another full clean is required.
This is an optional additional maintenance service.
