Our Milton Keynes roof cleaning team knows about the cold and damp weather our town faces throughout the year.
Moss growth requires moist conditions. The cool, damp weather coupled with limited sunshine and an annual average rainfall of 689mm are the perfect conditions for moss to grow on the roofs of Milton Keynes.
Roof Moss is problematic to residential and commercial properties. Excessive roof moss causes gutter blockages, responsible for causing damp inside buildings. Roof Moss will cause clay tiles or natural slates to crack when wet; it freezes and expands throughout winter.
According to the NFRC (The National Federation of Roofing Contractors), Roof moss “needs to be removed if it is blocking gutters, outlets and other drainage points”
Roof cleaning is the solution to your roof moss problems!
Our manual roof cleaning process scrapes roof moss from roofing and guttering. We offer an optional steam clean followed by a biocide application to clean your roof and repel future moss growth for a minimum of 3 years.
Your satisfaction is guaranteed with our roof cleaning and roof moss removal services in Milton Keynes!

Roof Cleaning
Steam cleaning as a method for pressure washing in roof cleaning.
Steam Cleaning is suited to tiled, slate or metal commercial building rooftops requiring an instant transformation.
Steam cleaning removes years of atmospheric dirt, debris, pollution and organic life including removing moss, lichen and algae for the surface of tiles, slates and metal roof coverings.
A biocide treatment is applied following completion of your pressure washing to sanitize and preserve your roofing, protecting your property from future moss growth.

Roof Moss Removal & Biocide Treatment
Manual moss removal is our preferred method for cleaning tiled rooftops.
Manual moss removal and biocide treatment is suitable for and works on all types of roofs, except metal commercial rooftops and man made slate roofs.
Biocide is applied after manually scraping moss from the tiles. The biocide kills off the remaining organic life ( moss spores, lichen, algae and biofilm) within 48 hours and gently cleanses the roof over the following 6-12 months.
Roof scraping and treatment comes with a 3 year moss free guarantee for all of our customers in Milton Keynes.

How much is the cost of roof cleaning?
The cost of roof cleaning in Milton Keynes is between £795 and £5000, and varies depending on:
- Cleaning method: Steam cleaning is more expensive than a manual scrape and biocide treatment.
- Access options: The cost of cleaning a roof using a cherry picker is more expensive than cleaning from a mobile access tower or ladders.
- Roof Tile Type: Older clay tiles are the most expensive to clean because they are the most time consuming roof tile to scrape. Modern clay, concrete tiles and traditional slates are all cheaper to clean than old fragile clay roofs.
- Roof Size: Larger roofs take longer to clean and cost more to clean than smaller roofs.
