What is Roof Moss?

Mosses are classified as Bryophyta of which there are over 12000 species, did you know they can hold twenty times their own weight by absorbing water. When left to grow too thickly, your roof tiles will move under the forces of the moss growing, disturbing thick moss could mean your roof tiles settling down in the incorrect position and leaving you with a leaky roof and in need of a professional roofer.

Better to keep your roof tiles free from thick moss in the first place by arranging to have your roof SoftWashed clean by a professional roof sanitizing company. In our estimation, roof moss becomes too thick to safely clean after many years of neglectful maintenance. Considering the high cost of replacing a whole roof against regular five-year maintenance treatments, it is essential that you plan how to protect your prime asset from deterioration.

Purple Rhino through respect of you and your property, will not attempt to clean or remove thick mosses and would advise you to instead consult your local roofing company.

Estate Agents

Safe roof moss removal should be your main concern when arranging for your roof to be cleaned. Do not allow anyone to walk on your roof tiles. It is against health and safety law to allow anyone to walk on roofs without proper training and specialist equipment.

Pressure washing is NOT the best practice when removing moss from roof tiles, this method of cleaning is simply too harsh and can cause more damage to your tiles that may not be evident for quite some time afterwards. Not only that, this method will only give the mosses a haircut, which will allow it to grow back, quicker and thicker.

Due to the very nature of moss growing on roof tiles, the spores must be killed. Water alone cannot do this. Instead a roof softWashing solution should be sprayed over the entire roof to ensure a 100% kill ratio. This is often the best way to keep your roof moss free for longer periods of times, we expect up to five years on roofs we clean and sanitise.

I look forward to helping you get your building super clean,

Yours sincerely
