Moss Removal in Borehamwood

Roof Moss Removal in Borehamwood from a Local Roofer

Green cushions along the tile laps, gutters that overflow in heavy rain and clumps of moss on the patio are all signs that a roof needs clearing. TNR Roofing Services removes moss from tiled and slate roofs in Borehamwood, using a method suited to the covering and soft wash treatment where it is appropriate.

Borehamwood sits within the WD6 postcode district, which we cover from Hemel Hempstead. We start with a free inspection of the roof, look at how far the moss, algae and lichen have spread, and check the valleys and gutters where it tends to collect. Your quote then sets out exactly what the work involves.

What's included

What Our Moss Removal in Borehamwood Covers

The main parts of the job, each listed in your quote.

  • Moss cushions removed from the laps between tiles or slates, where they lift the bottom edges and let rain blow underneath.
  • Soft wash treatment applied where it suits the covering, to deal with the moss, algae and lichen left on the surface.
  • Valleys, hips and the areas behind chimneys freed of moss so rainwater runs off the roof again.
  • Cracked or slipped tiles and slates uncovered by the work pointed out to you, with a quote for repairs if they need it.
  • Fallen moss lifted out of the gutters and outlets so the next heavy rain drains away instead of overflowing.
  • Paths, patios and drives below the roof swept clear of moss and debris before we leave.

Pricing

Pricing Roof Moss Removal in Borehamwood

The cost of clearing moss from a Borehamwood roof comes down to the following, each checked at the inspection:

  • How much of the roof the moss covers and how thick the cushions have grown
  • Whether soft wash treatment is needed for algae and lichen as well as the moss
  • The covering, as slate, clay tiles and concrete tiles each need a different level of care
  • The height and pitch of the roof, and access around any conservatory or extension below
  • How much moss has already built up in the gutters, outlets and valleys

How it works

Our Borehamwood Moss Removal Process

What happens from your first call to the finished work.

  1. Free Roof Inspection

    We identify whether the roof is concrete tile, clay tile or slate, check its condition and see how far the moss, algae and lichen have spread, then set out the method in a no-obligation quote.

  2. Clearing the Moss

    Moss is removed from the slopes, laps, valleys and ridges, working down from the ridge so it falls towards the gutters instead of being pushed under the courses.

  3. Soft Wash Where Agreed

    Where soft wash treatment is part of the agreed method, it is applied to the cleared roof to treat the moss, algae and lichen that remain.

  4. Gutters Emptied and Final Review

    Fallen moss is cleared from the gutters, outlets and the ground below, then we review the completed work with you and confirm everything has been done as agreed.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there more moss on one side of my roof?

Moss likes shade and damp, so it usually grows thickest on north-facing slopes and on any part of the roof that stays wet for longer. The sunnier side dries quickly and tends to stay clearer.

Can moss make my roof leak?

It can contribute. Thick moss lifts the bottom edges of tiles and slates, which lets wind-driven rain creep underneath, and moss washed into the gutters can block them so water spills over the edge.

Do you remove moss from commercial roofs in WD6?

Yes. We clear moss from shops, offices and other commercial buildings in Borehamwood as well as homes, and we plan access so the work causes as little disruption as possible.

Are you insured to work on my roof?

Yes. TNR carries public liability insurance and is a vetted Checkatrade member, so you can check our standing before you book.
