Roof cleaning is the professional process of removing dirt, debris, moss, lichen, and other organic matter that accumulates on your roof over time. This buildup can trap moisture, damage your roof tiles, and even create a breeding ground for pests. Regularly cleaning your roof extends its lifespan, improves its appearance, and protects your home from potential problems.
While some people attempt DIY roof cleaning, it’s a risky job. Roofs can be slippery and dangerous to walk on. Professional roof cleaners, like Kent Property Cleaning, have the safety equipment and expertise to navigate your roof safely and efficiently. Additionally, we use the right cleaning methods and products to ensure your roof is cleaned effectively without causing any damage.
The frequency of roof cleaning depends on several factors, such as the type of roof you have, the surrounding environment, and the amount of tree cover. In general, it’s recommended to have your roof cleaned every 2–3 years. However, if you live in an area with a lot of trees or near the coast, you may need more frequent cleaning.
To prepare your property’s roof for cleaning, we will need to make sure there are no surrounding obstacles such as vehicles and landscaping that could somehow be damaged during the clean. As we use biocides and chemicals to clean, we would not want to destroy any plants, so we will keep that in mind, working in such a way that no damage will be done to your property.
Next, we will safely scrape with our specially designed roof scraping tools that can be adjusted to whatever style of roof tile and shingles you have. Moss and other detritus can then be collected from the gutters and removed from your property. Do we walk on your roof? No. Kent Property Cleaning uses a lance to soft wash your roof and to effectively reach all parts of your roof without the need to walk on top of it and potentially cause harm.
Softwashing is the act of thoroughly and swiftly cleaning roof tiles of dirt and stains whilst maintaining the protective layer most roof tiling has. Using high-pressure jet washers on your roof will do more harm than good, so our low-pressure machine safely cleans away without destroying the tile.
If you wish, we can then safely apply biocide on your roof. What is the point of this? Not only does it remove stains that are leftover from the softwash, but it also restores the original colour of the roof, kills organic growth such as lichen, fungi, moss, algae, and mildew, and is in effect ‘activated’ over and over again every time it rains, washing your roof. Using chemicals on a roof has proven to be very beneficial if done properly and carefully.
Why should I get my roof cleaned? You may think that roof cleaning is purely for aesthetic reasons, but many do not know that roof cleaning can bring many other advantages, not only to your roof but to your property as well. The roof is one of the most important features of a building. Protecting your home from the elements and keeping your property dry.
It is so important, then, that we regularly maintain our roofs, keeping them in good condition. Failure to do so often results in long-term damage and expensive repairs or replacements. One way to care for a roof is by cleaning it.
As mentioned above, having Kent Property Cleaning inspect your roof means that any damage or issues with your roof can be exposed and quickly dealt with before they become bigger problems. On top of that, algae and moss is removed.
Organic substances such as algae, mould, mildew, and lichen, along with moss and fungi, can eventually settle on your roof tiles and slowly begin to eat away at the material. Removing these will prevent further harm to your roof tiles and applying the biocide will discourage these natural roof eaters from settling again in the future.
Preventing the risk of damage to your roof means maintaining the structure of its shingles, keeping them from getting thin, and failing to insulate your home. Mould and mildew build-up will also result in an unfavourable smell and can eventually creep inside of your home. Gutters work in harmony with your roof, keeping both clean results in a smoothly functioning water removal system from the top of your property. Maintaining this system prevents possible water damage and mould in and around your home.
Another benefit of Kent Property Cleaning is getting your roof expertly cleaned has the potential to increase property value, making up for any cost you spend on hiring us to clean your roof.
Depending on the size, condition, and style of your roof, roof cleaning can cost can vary as we work on a square metre costing this is genuinely bespoke based on your requirements. You can pick and choose which roof cleaning services you want for your roof, so this may affect the final price as well.
But, it’s good to keep in mind that the price of caring for your roof and keeping your roof tiles happy could save you from future costs of having to repair or replace parts or the entirety of your roof.
