At Carlisle Roofing Company, our process begins with careful hand removal of moss and debris. This method ensures that the roof surface is not damaged and that all moss is removed from tiles or slates, gutters, and roof valleys. By manually clearing moss, our roofers reduce the risk of water pooling and prevent blockages in your gutters, keeping your roof functioning properly.

DAMAGE CAUSED BY MOSS AND LICHEN
Moss and lichen may seem harmless, but over time they can cause serious damage to your roof. Moss holds moisture against tiles and slates, which can lead to rot, cracking, or warping. Lichen can gradually break down the surface of roofing materials, reducing their effectiveness and lifespan. Regular roof cleaning and maintenance help prevent these issues, preserving the integrity and longevity of your roof while maintaining the overall appearance of your home.

UNCOVERING ROOF REPAIRS DURING ROOF CLEANING
During roof cleaning and hand moss removal, it is common to discover underlying damage that may not have been visible before. Moss and algae can hide slipped or cracked tiles, damaged slates, broken flashing, or worn roof fittings. By removing moss and applying Softwash cleaning, our roofers at Carlisle Roofing Company can identify these issues early and recommend planned repairs, preventing minor problems from becoming costly.

PREVENTATIVE MEASURES FOR YOUR ROOF
Regular roof cleaning improves the appearance and longevity of your roof and also acts as a preventative measure, helping maintain the structural integrity of your property. This proactive approach ensures that your roof stays in good condition and reduces the risk of leaks, damp, and further damage.

PROFESSIONAL AND
SAFE SERVICE
At Carlisle Roofing Company, our roofers use experience, care, and the correct equipment to carry out roof cleaning safely. Working at height requires skill and attention to safety, and we ensure all health and safety regulations are followed on every job. We take care to protect surrounding plants, gardens, and property while cleaning, leaving your home looking refreshed and secure.
SOFTWASH CLEANING FOR ROOFS
After hand moss removal, our roofers apply Softwash cleaning to treat algae, lichen, and remaining moss spores. Softwash is a low pressure, environmentally safe cleaning solution that penetrates the roof surface, removing growths without causing damage. This method improves water flow into gutters, enhances the roof’s appearance, and helps extend the life of tiles and slates. The benefits of roof cleaning include:
- Helps prevent structural issues caused by trapped moisture
- Reduces the risk of blocked gutters and water damage
- Prevents damage caused by moss, algae, and lichen
- Safe, environmentally friendly cleaning methods
- Restores the visual appeal of your property
- Improves property value and kerb appeal
- Maintains the lifespan of tiles and slates
