Moss-covered roof tiles can make even modern buildings look uncared-for. Removing the moss will give your home or business premises a completely new look, and will protect the roof tiles or slates against destructive acids.
We can use a soft wash to carefully restore the slate or tiled roof of your business or your home.

Our soft roof-washing service will get rid of moss on any tiled or slate roofs.
We will use specialised cleaning equipment ton remove loose moss, lichen and algae, and treat the roof with a moss-resistant product to greatly reduce the chance of it coming back. Over our many years in business, we have invested in the best equipment, and we know what moss killers and chemical products work best to keep a moss problem under control.
Our commercial and residential roof cleaning services will help your building look brand new, and prevent moss from returning, even under the typically damp conditions we contend with here in the north-west!
Bringing in our roof cleaning services is an investment which can l avoid the need for costly repairs in the future due to a moss problem, and your roof will stay moss-free for longer.
We use gentle moss removal techniques, which don’t involve pressure washing or powerful chemicals which might damage your roof, but which will shift the moss and greatly discourage it from coming back.
We start by removing living and dead moss from your roof with specially designed scrapers with a semi-soft blade and a soft bristle brush. These scrapers can remove moss from many types of roof tiles.
We use either scaffolding or a cherry picker to allow us to reach all areas of the roof safely.
Once all the moss has been removed, we use a low-pressure washer to apply moss killer. This liquid compound is a gentle biocide that kills all biological growth, and over the next 12 months will also prevent moss, algae and lichens from returning.
Although moss can look harmless, it acts like a sponge, soaking up water and other liquids. As it then grows between the tiles, it spreads that damaging moisture into any cracks and imperfections it can find in your roof.
Frost makes it far easier for moss to damage your roof, because when water expands as it freezes, any moisture held in by the moss will expand, and seep into the tiny gaps in roof tiles and slates that moss loves so much. So you could face a big bill to repair significant damage.
The best way to extend the life of your roof is to remove moss before it completely takes over, by having it scraped off, or having a moss killer applied.
Dead moss can come loose from your roof in rain and strong winds. It then drops onto your driveway, patio, pathways, or even your car’s windscreen, and looks ugly.
Although you can gather and clear this dead moss using a plastic leaf rake and add it to your compost heap, you can completely eliminate this pesky job by having the moss removed before it falls from your roof.
If moss is allowed to grow freely it can wash down from your roof and clog up your gutters. A blocked gutter will soon overflow, and can cause your roof to leak or damage wooden beams.
Fixing these issues can be very expensive. By contrast, calling in ProClean to remove moss will save you that nasty expense.
Moss on a roof is only a good look in a fairy tale. If you’ve got patchy moss growing in shady areas, or lichens and algae have developed, your house will just look uncared-for.
Having moss removed from your roof will make your roof look brand new again. You can restore your roof tiles to their best by calling in us at ProClean. We will apply moss killer, which will leave your roof looking neat.
If you’re thinking of selling your home, a garden free of weeds and invasive grass will make it more attractive to buyers. Well, the same goes for your roof!

Moss-covered roof tiles can make even modern buildings look uncared-for. Removing the moss will give your home or business premises a completely new look, and will protect the roof tiles or slates against destructive acids.
You should consider getting your roof professionally cleaned every one or two years. This will of course depend on how quickly moss takes over your roof surfaces, and then returns after it has been removed.
No we don’t recommend it, because the water pressure can loosen roof tiles and slate, or make the tiles brittle. In any bad weather, you then risk having tiles fall off your roof. If you want to clean your roof yourself, we recommend using a low-pressure washer, or a soft-bristled brush and moss killer to get rid of moss. ProClean provide pressure washing services in Manchester for other aspects of exterior cleaning.
Mould always represents a hazard, to your health and your home. If you notice roof mould, you need to get rid of it as soon as possible, because unchecked roof mould can get into your house, and cause health issues. Excessive exposure to mould spores can potentially kill young children or pets if it gets into their lungs.
