THE SHORT ANSWER
Less moss. Cleaner tiles. The roof you already have.
Roof cleaning removes surface growth and dirt. It reveals the existing tiles; it does not repaint them or repair underlying defects.
The quotation
Roof area, tile condition, access and the amount of growth determine the work and price.
The next step

YOUR ROOF MIGHT NEED A CLEAN
Moss on Your Roof? Here's What It Can Mean.
Moss often starts in shaded areas and develops gradually. At first it's easy to overlook. Later you may notice thicker patches or debris washing towards gutters.
Moss doesn't automatically prove your roof is damaged.
It can, however, collect moisture and organic debris. Loose growth may contribute to gutter blockages, and a heavily contaminated surface can make it harder to see the condition of the tiles beneath.
The useful question isn't simply, “How do we remove it?” It's “What condition is this roof in, and which treatment is suitable?”
Moisture and organic growth
Shaded, damp conditions can encourage moss, algae and lichen. The significance varies with the roof material and condition.
Moss falling into gutters
Debris from the roof may restrict drainage and contribute to overflow during rain.
An older-looking roof
Moss and dirt can make serviceable tiles look more weathered than they are. Cleaning may reveal a much fresher original surface.
Existing damage is a separate issue
Cleaning doesn’t mend cracked tiles, failing mortar or problems below the roof surface. Those concerns require their own assessment.
Don't assume the worst because you can see moss. Start with the roof's actual condition.
Ask Us About MossOUR APPROACH
A Thorough Clean Starts With an Appropriate Plan.
Good roof cleaning is more than spraying the surface and hoping for the best. The roofing material, existing condition, contamination, access and surrounding areas all matter.
Roof Review
Consider the visible tile condition, material, moss growth and areas that may affect the cleaning method. An obvious defect may require further investigation first.
Prepare the Surroundings
Plan safe access and protect surrounding surfaces where appropriate. Identify how moss and debris will be managed during the work.
Clean Using a Suitable Method
Remove unwanted contamination using the agreed method appropriate to the substrate and its condition.
Apply the Agreed Treatment
Where specified, an appropriate biocide may be applied in accordance with its product instructions to discourage organic regrowth. Permanent prevention isn’t promised.
Review and Tidy
Inspect the completed agreed work and clear the debris from the agreed work areas. Any outstanding concerns should be explained.
Explain Completion & Aftercare
Review relevant completion information and explain appropriate aftercare, treatment limitations and any maintenance advice for your roof.
The right method matters more than a one-size-fits-all promise.
Coating preparation has separate requirements. It does not determine the method for every standalone roof clean.
THE METHOD SHOULD FIT THE ROOF
Different Roofs Need Different Treatment.
Roof tiles vary in material, age, finish and condition. A treatment that's appropriate for one property may not be for another.
That's why cleaning decisions should be based on the specific roof rather than an automatic method chosen before inspection.
Your roof isn't identical to your neighbour's. The cleaning approach shouldn't be assumed to be identical either.
Ask About My Roof TypeConcrete roof tiles
These can collect substantial moss and surface dirt. Their age and existing condition should be considered before cleaning.
Clay roof tiles
Clay surfaces vary. The tile type, finish and condition affect the suitability of a proposed method.
Slate and specialist materials
Not all materials are suitable for every cleaning technique or subsequent coating system. Some require specialist assessment.
Damage and fragile surfaces
Loose or cracked tiles, deteriorated areas or suspect materials must not be ignored to push ahead with cleaning.
Do you always pressure wash?
No universal cleaning method is right for all roofs. We’ll explain the appropriate method proposed for your property. Some roof-coating preparation systems have separate requirements.
If suspect asbestos-containing materials are found, work must stop for appropriate specialist advice.
Discuss existing tile defectsSEE THE DIFFERENCE
See What Professional Cleaning Can Change.
A roof covered in moss and surface dirt can look significantly older than the tiles beneath. Once contamination has been removed using a suitable method, the visual difference may be striking.
But a cleaning comparison should show cleaning — not a new coloured coating.
BEFOREAFTER CLEANING
Less moss. The same tile colour.
Actual results depend on the roof and treatment. Drag or use arrow keys to compare.
Before: Visible moss, lichen, algae and accumulated surface dirt.
After: Same roof tiles after cleaning, with their original material and colour still apparent.
Cleaning or Colour Coating?
Cleaning removes surface contamination. RENOTEC coating is a separate service that can restore or change the colour of compatible roof tiles and provides specified surface-protection properties.

LOOKING AFTER THE RESULT
What Happens After the Moss Is Gone?
Cleaning can dramatically improve a roof's appearance, but it doesn't remove the conditions that originally encouraged organic growth.
Weather, shade, overhanging trees and debris remain factors to keep an eye on over time.
A cleaner existing surface
Cleaning removes suitable surface contamination; it doesn’t replace damaged material or repaint faded tiles.
Treatment may help discourage regrowth
Where included and correctly applied, biocide can help manage organic growth. No treatment should be described as making a roof permanently moss-free.
Gutters still need checking
Leaves and debris can return after the cleaning visit. Maintaining drainage remains important.
Colour restoration is a separate decision
If the roof remains serviceable but the tiles have lost their colour, RENOTEC may be worth discussing. It isn’t automatically required after cleaning.
YOUR QUOTE
How Much Does Roof Cleaning Cost?
There isn't one meaningful price for every roof. The area to be treated, access requirements, existing condition, amount of moss and any agreed treatments all affect the work involved.
Your quotation sets out the roof areas, cleaning method, preparation, debris management and any additional treatment included. Ask us to explain access costs, exclusions and the total payable before agreeing to proceed.

Complex roof shapes or larger areas may need different equipment and time.
Moss and contamination
Heavy growth and difficult debris removal can affect the work required.
Access and condition
Height, fragile materials, existing defects and safe access arrangements matter.
The agreed scope
Cleaning, appropriate biocide, gutter clearing and promotion extras need to be distinguished in the quotation.

Your Roof-Cleaning Questions, Answered.
Material-specific advice, practical arrangements and the limits of removing surface growth. General cleaning and safety questions are covered on our main FAQs page.
View All Frequently Asked QuestionsExplore the Roof-Cleaning ProcessWhy Does Moss Grow on Roof Tiles?
Moss may develop where the roofing surface and surrounding conditions are suitable for growth. Shade, retained moisture and the nature of the roof material can all influence conditions. Different roof slopes may experience different levels of moss growth.
Can You Clean Concrete Roof Tiles?
Concrete roof tiles may be suitable for professional cleaning, depending on their condition, surface characteristics and the proposed method. Any damage or deterioration should be assessed before work is agreed.
Can You Clean Clay Roof Tiles?
Some clay roof tiles may be suitable for appropriately selected cleaning techniques. Clay roofing varies significantly in age, surface condition and manufacture, so suitability can't be guaranteed without assessment.
Can You Clean Natural Slate Roofs?
Natural slate and other sensitive roof coverings require particular care. A cleaning method suitable for conventional concrete tiles may not be appropriate for slate. Material-specific assessment or a specialist contractor may be necessary.
Does Roof Cleaning Remove Algae and Lichen?
Suitable professional cleaning may remove appropriate surface algae, lichen and other contamination. The method and achievable result depend on the roofing material and condition. Not every mark or discolouration can necessarily be removed without risk.
How Long Does a Roof Clean Take?
Duration depends on the property, roof size, contamination, access, method and weather. The proposed scheduling arrangements will be explained when the work is planned. No universal completion time can be guaranteed.
What Happens to the Moss and Debris?
The agreed quotation should identify the work-area clean-up and relevant debris-removal arrangements. Where Roof Revival includes additional gutter clearing or exterior cleaning, the scope should also be explained before work is agreed.
Can My Roof Be Cleaned If It Has Solar Panels?
Roofs containing solar panels may require additional care with access and protection of the installation. Panel cleaning, electrical work or removal and refitting of equipment must not be assumed to be included. The proposed roof cleaning must be assessed against the actual installation.
