Why regular roof cleaning & moss removal matters in Islington
Islington's parapet and hidden box gutters are a common source of internal damp when they go unchecked.
We work on Georgian and Victorian terraces with parapet roofs across Islington. Our team checks the access and the condition of the surfaces before starting, so you know what the clean involves and what it will cost.
Our roof cleaning & moss removal method
Moss is scraped back by hand or with controlled low-pressure tools — never a high-pressure lance, which strips the protective granules from tiles.
The roof is softwashed to lift lichen staining and algae, with gutters cleared of the fallen debris afterwards.
A biocide treatment is applied to slow regrowth, and we tell you honestly when a roof simply needs a repair instead.
Islington questions we get asked
Is pressure washing safe for roofs in Islington?
We don't pressure wash roofs. On Georgian and Victorian terraces with parapet roofs around Islington that would shorten tile life considerably, so we scrape and softwash instead.
How long before the moss comes back?
With the biocide treatment applied, most roofs stay visibly clear for three to five years depending on tree cover and how much shade the slope gets.
