Moss Removal in Cheshunt

Roof Moss Removal in Cheshunt from a Local Roofer

A roof covered in moss is more than an eyesore. The roots hold moisture in the joints between tiles, the cushions prise up the edges of the covering, and every storm washes another load into the gutters. TNR Roofing Services clears moss from roofs in Cheshunt and leaves the gutters running freely afterwards.

Moss clearance across EN7 and EN8 is carried out from our Hemel Hempstead base. Concrete tiles, clay tiles and slate each need a different level of care, so we look at your roof before deciding how to clear it and whether soft wash treatment should follow for the algae and lichen.

What's included

What Our Moss Removal in Cheshunt 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

What Affects Moss Removal Prices in Cheshunt

No two Cheshunt roofs carry the same amount of moss, and these are the factors that set the price:

  • 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

From First Look to a Clear Roof in Cheshunt

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

What is soft wash treatment?

It applies a cleaning solution to the roof surface to treat moss, algae and lichen, instead of relying on force to strip growth away. Whether it suits your roof depends on the covering and its condition, which we confirm at the free inspection.

Do you treat algae and lichen as well as moss?

Yes. Once the thick moss has been removed, soft wash treatment can be used, where it suits the covering, on the remaining moss, algae and lichen across the roof surface.

Will moss end up all over my garden?

Some will fall as the roof is cleared, but we work down from the ridge towards the gutters and then sweep up what lands on paths and patios before we go.

Do I need permission from Broxbourne Borough Council to have moss removed?

Moss removal is maintenance and does not normally need consent. If your EN7 or EN8 property is listed, it is worth checking with Broxbourne Borough Council before any work on the roof.
