Professional Roof Moss Removal Specialists

Moss growth on roofs is common in the UK, particularly on shaded or north-facing roof slopes. While it may appear harmless, moss retains moisture and can cause tiles to deteriorate, lift or crack over time. Our roof moss removal service focuses on safe, controlled removal to protect your roof without causing damage.

Our Roof Moss Removal Process

Every roof is different, but our approach typically includes:
1

Roof Inspection

We assess the roof type, condition and extent of moss growth before starting work.
2

Manual Moss Removal

Moss is carefully removed using appropriate methods to avoid damage to tiles or slates..
3

Clearance of Debris

Removed moss is cleared away to prevent gutter blockages or mess around the property.
4

Aftercare Advice

We provide guidance on maintenance and future moss prevention.

Why Roof Moss Should Be Removed

Regular moss removal helps to:

  • Prevent moisture retention on roof tiles

  • Reduce tile damage and surface wear

  • Improve rainwater runoff

  • Protect gutters and downpipes from blockages

  • Maintain the appearance of your property

Left untreated, moss can contribute to leaks and costly repairs.

Suitable Roof Types for Moss Removal

Roof moss removal is commonly carried out on:

  • Pitched tile roofs

  • Slate roofs

  • Older roof coverings prone to organic growth

We tailor our approach based on the roof material and condition.
