Roof Cleaning Oldham & Roof Moss Removal Oldham

When was the last time your roof was cleaned? Roof Cleaning Oldham and Roof Moss Removal Oldham will protect your roof tiles from deterioration. You may not notice that your roof has accumulated dirt, but visitors and potential buyers are likely to see it. Roof Cleaning Oldham will help bring your roof to the absolute best condition.

Why Roof Cleaning And Roof Moss Removal Is Essential

Roof Moss Removal Oldham tackles stubborn moss infestations on your roof. Moss grows in damp habitats. The wet UK weather leaves roof tiles vulnerable to infestations such as moss and algae. This will quickly advance and pressure your roof tiles if moss is not dealt with. This could cause them to break or move. The problems that stem from loose or broken roof tiles include:

Leaks – A leak, no matter how subtle, will damage the inside of your property. Wallpaper and carpets may become damp, loft spaces will suffer, and dampness can affect the structure of the building. It can also lead to mould, which is harmful and can cause respiratory issues.

Reduced insulation – Loose tiles mean your heating will have to work that bit harder. Your energy bills will increase, and there could be an uncomfortable breeze.

Unappealing – An unkempt or faulty roof is not only unattractive, but it is also off-putting for buyers. Everyone knows that extensive roof repairs are not cheap, and the value of your property could reduce significantly if the condition of your roof is poor.

Scheduling services such as roof cleaning and roof moss removal is the best way to enhance the quality and lifespan of your roof.

Our Roof Cleaning Process

Many roofs in Oldham suffer from a build-up of moss and dirt which looks unsightly and needs cleaning. This would be the process our Registered Contractors undertake if you employed the services of Roof Cleaning Oldham and Roof Moss Removal Oldham:

1. To get rid of moss, algae, lichen, grime, and pollutants, the roof would firstly receive a thorough cleaning with specialised roof cleaning tools and supplies (like our Green Clear).
2. Once totally clean, the roof is assessed, and any remedial roof repairs like cracked or broken tiles and the mortar that needs replacing due to weathering on hips, ridge tiles and valleys are carried out.
3. A biocide treatment will then be applied to ensure any residual sub-surface moss and algae spores are eliminated.
4. Once clean and dry, roofs would benefit from the optional application of Smartseal Roof Sealer or Roof Coating.

Our transparent Roof Sealer, which dries quickly, will serve as a protective barrier on top of the roof tile, deflecting the incoming weather and adding an additional layer of water repellence and stain resistance. These qualities also have a 10-year lifespan.

From Clean And Care To Quality: Our Full List Of Services

We also offer a clear Roof Sealer or Roof Coating for further protection. The quality Smartseal roof coating we use is 100% acrylic and mixed with binders that allow the tiles to flex with the cold and heat. By using a sealer, it will not only enhance the natural colour but will protect the roof from further contamination and provide a barrier to contaminants, therefore reducing maintenance. 

The Climashield™ Roof Coatings that we can offer to homes in Oldham provide the highest quality pigments that are available, protecting from deterioration caused by UV light and providing a quality adhesion between the coating and the tile. It is water permeable, therefore allowing the roof to 'breathe'; an essential factor in expelling moisture from the inside out. If a sealant is used without this provision, harmful fungi and pollutants can take hold.
