Eradicate roof moss with our roof cleaning service
Professional Roof Cleaning London
Searching for roofing cleaning near me in London?
From our locations in St Albans and Stanmore, A&W Exterior Cleaning provides professional roof cleaning and moss removal services across London, Hertfordshire and the surrounding areas, including Northwood, Harrow and all London boroughs.
Our roof cleaning service is designed to remove years of built-up moss, algae and organic growth, restoring the appearance of your roof while helping to keep it cleaner for longer. We work on both residential and commercial properties, providing roof cleaning for homes as well as schools, offices, hotels and other commercial buildings.
Choosing the Right Roof Cleaning Method
Every roof is different, so before starting work we assess the condition of the roof, roofing material and tile profile, the level of moss or organic growth, and the access requirements for the property. Where appropriate, this may also include a drone roof survey to give us a closer look at areas that are difficult to inspect from ground level.
This allows us to recommend the most suitable cleaning method for the property. Depending on the roof, this can include roof steam cleaning, soft washing or manual moss removal.
Steam cleaning is particularly effective for many roof types, using high-temperature water to remove moss and organic growth without relying on excessive pressure. For roofs where steam cleaning isn't the most appropriate option, we can use alternative methods based on the material and condition of the roof.
Following cleaning, we apply a professional biocide treatment where appropriate to target remaining organic spores and help inhibit future moss, algae and lichen regrowth.
Older Roofs & Existing Wear
Roof cleaning can also reveal the true condition of an older roof. Years of moss and organic growth can conceal normal age-related deterioration such as weathered mortar, deteriorated pointing, cracked or displaced tiles and other existing defects. In some cases, established moss can even be helping to hold already-loose tiles or sections of deteriorated mortar in place, meaning these issues only become apparent once the moss has been removed.
Where pre-existing deterioration or defects are uncovered during cleaning, A&W Exterior Cleaning cannot accept responsibility for the cost of repairing those existing issues. However, we'll always make you aware of anything significant we identify and can advise on the next steps where necessary.
Equally, we stand behind our own work. In the unlikely event that we directly cause damage while carrying out your roof cleaning, we'll take responsibility and arrange for the affected area to be repaired or replaced as appropriate.
Professional Roof Cleaning Without the Fuss
We use specialist access equipment including scaffold towers and cherry pickers, operated by IPAF-qualified technicians, allowing us to safely reach and clean roofs without routinely needing to walk across the roof itself.
Whether you have a heavily moss-covered residential roof, an older property in need of careful cleaning or a large commercial building, we'll assess the job and recommend a practical cleaning solution suited to your property.
If you're looking for professional roof cleaning in London or Hertfordshire, A&W Exterior Cleaning provides a complete service from initial assessment and moss removal through to cleaning and preventative treatment.

Why Roof Cleaning is Essential
Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home. It shields your home from the elements all day, every day. Plus, it ensures that you and your family live safely and comfortably. However, over time, your roof can become covered in dirt and debris, and algae can even form. This is a problem because not only will a dirty roof detract from the aesthetic appeal of your home, but this is also going to cause a significant amount of damage if you were to leave it untreated. This is where professional roof cleaning comes in!
Now, we know that London has a variety of weather conditions, one day it’ll be sunny, and then a whole week it’ll be rainy. But the roofs are particularly susceptible to moss and algae growth. These organisms thrive in damp, shaded environments, plus, they can hold onto moisture against the roof surface. Moss spores will spread quickly once ready, which leads to rapid roof moss regrowth if not effectively removed.
It doesn’t take long for potential leaks and deterioration to happen if your roof is constantly wet. So that’s why regular roof cleaning is essential, it’s so important to maintain the integrity of your roof but to extend it where possible.
Maintaining a clean roof can prevent damage from moss and algae, improve your home's appearance, and may even lead to cost savings on energy bills by preventing heat absorption due to dirt and moss accumulation. We ensure to selected to right roof cleaning method based on your roof needs, as different methods can cause water flowing and damage to roofing materials.

Roof Moss Removal London
Moss may seem harmless at first glance; it might even come across as eco-friendly, but if you think about the sheer damage that moss can cause over time on your roof, it’s the farthest thing from eco-friendly because it can destroy your home and your belongings.
Moss tends to grow in the nooks and crannies of many roof tiles, causing them to lift and separate. This creates openings where water can seep in, leading to rot, mold, and structural damage. Plus, you have to keep in mind that moss retains moisture, which can freeze during the colder months, leading to frost damage and further compromising your roof's integrity.
Like the rest of the UK, homeowners in London deal with a damp climate; even the summers here are fairly damp, which is the perfect condition for moss. So that’s why you need regular moss removal from your roof. It keeps your roof protected, but it also improves the overall appearance of your home, enhances its curb appeal, and potentially increases its value.

When moss is subject to the freeze-thaw effect over time, it will begin to do damage to your roof tiles. Every time it freezes it expands, widening any tile cracks and putting pressure on joints. When it thaws out, a larger roof tile crack is left, which will allow further expansion on the next freeze.
