Professional Roof Cleaning You Can Trust

Based on Wymington Road in Rushden, Northants Exterior Cleaning provides professional roof cleaning throughout the town and surrounding villages. We take roof cleaning seriously and pride ourselves on doing every job properly. Each property is assessed before work begins so we can choose the most appropriate cleaning method for the roof. Depending on the roof, this may include careful moss scraping or low-pressure steam cleaning, followed by a professional DDAC-based biocide treatment. From the initial assessment through to the final clean-up, we work methodically, take care to protect the surrounding property and leave everything clean and tidy

Many customers contact us once moss has built up heavily enough to become a constant nuisance. Loose moss can fall from the roof during windy conditions, while birds may also dislodge it onto paths, patios and driveways, creating an ongoing mess around your property.

Guttering issues are also revealed when it rains, as fallen moss will collect in gutters, downpipes and roof galleys, contributing to blockages and overflowing rainwater running down the exterior walls.

As well as resolving the practical problems caused by excessive roof moss, cleaning can restore a more cared for appearance and improve the kerb appeal of the property.

Our local service area includes Higham Ferrers, Irthlingborough, Wellingborough, Stanwick, Raunds and Thrapston and surrounding villages.

Gutter and Drainage Protection

Protecting your property during the cleaning is an important part of the process. Before roof cleaning begins, the downpipes are temporarily disconnected or isolated so that moss and debris cannot be washed into the underground drainage system and cause blockages.

Once the roof has been cleaned, we clear the roof gullies, vacuum and flush the gutters before reconnecting the downpipes. This is included as standard with our roof-cleaning service, leaving the guttering clean and free flowing.

Ongoing Roof Maintenance

No treatment will keep a roof free from moss forever. How quickly regrowth appears depends on factors such as surrounding trees, shade, moisture levels and the condition of the roof.

To help maintain the results, we offer an ongoing roof maintenance service for existing customers, we gently reapply a professional biocide treatment using a soft brush on our water-fed pole system, this allows us to soft wash your roof without standing on it just as we did during the original cleaning process.

The treatment helps control organic growth and delays moss from becoming established again. Our maintenance programme can avoid the need to repeat the complete moss removal process and typically costs considerably less than carrying out another full roof clean.

What to Expect From Your Roof Cleaning Process

Your Initial Site Survey

Book your free survey online or contact us directly, and we’ll arrange a convenient time to visit your property. During the survey, we’ll assess the type and condition of the roof tiles, the extent of moss, algae, and lichen, and the safest way to access the roof. Identify equipment required such as mobile scaffold towers or a spider lift, before explaining the cleaning method, expected timescale and providing a clear no-obligation quotation.

Arranging Your Roof Cleaning Date

Once you’ve had time to consider our quotation and you’re ready to proceed, simply give us a call or contact us online. We’ll arrange a suitable date with you for your roof cleaning to begin. As roof cleaning is weather dependant, we’ll also keep you informed if unsuitable conditions mean we have to reschedule.

On the Day of Your Roof Clean

On the day of your roof clean, we’ll contact you when we’re on our way and arrive at the agreed time,

Before roof cleaning begins, we’ll protect the working area and cover plants where required, To prevent moss and debris from entering the downpipes and potentially blocking underground drainage, we temporarily disconnect the downpipes from the gutters. Long hoses or plastic gutter sleeves can then be attached to safely divert water and debris to a suitable collection area, we’ll then set up our access equipment so the work can be completed safely.

Cleaning Your Roof Safely

When we are set up, we’ll begin cleaning your roof using the method agreed during your survey. whether this was, manual roof scraping, controlled low-pressure washing, or low-pressure steam cleaning, in most cases we are able to clean your roof from our scaffold towers, without the need for a spider lift this will keep the cost down for our customers, using professional telescopic roof-cleaning tools. we do NOT walk directly on your roof this is mainly for our safety and to prevent unnecessary damage to your roof.

Clearing the Gutters and Washing Down

After your roof has been cleaned, we’ll use our SkyVac gutter vacuum to remove the loosened moss and debris from your gutters. We’ll then flush the gutters through to check that the water is flowing correctly and leave them clean and clear.
Any downpipes disconnected before the roof clean will then be securely reconnected. We’ll also wash down the windows, walls, and fascias.

Applying the Biocide Treatment

Once the roof has been thoroughly cleaned and the gutters have been cleared, flushed, and reconnected, we’ll apply a full professional biocide treatment.
We apply the treatment carefully using a brush rather than spraying it, this controlled method stops overspray from reaching neighbouring properties, plants, and surrounding surfaces.
The biocide will kill any remaining moss, lichen, and black spot, over time, penetrating deep into the roof tiles reactivating every time it rains, For additional peace of mind the treatment is covered by are no grow guarantee for 3 years.

Final Clean Up and Customer Inspection

Roof cleaning can be a messy process, but we take great care to protect your property and leave the area clean and tidy, rinsing down paths, patios and driveways, and removing the waste produced by our work.
Once we have fully completed the clean up, we’ll show you around your property, we’ll make sure you are completely satisfied with the results and address any questions before packing away our equipment

Why Professional Roof Cleaning Is Important

Your roof plays a crucial role in both the appearance of your property and its protection against the elements. Over time moss, dirt, algae, and other contaminants can build up on the tiles, diminishing your home’s kerb appeal and potentially causing damage if neglected. Professional roof cleaning removes this unwanted organic growth and helps keep your roof looking clean and well maintained.

Helps Protect and Maintain Your Roof

Moss, algae and debris can retain moisture and contribute deterioration of the roof surface over time. Professional roof cleaning removes this organic build-up, helping0 to maintain the roof and potentially extend its serviceable life.

Enhances Kerb Appeal

Professional roof cleaning can dramatically improve the appearance of your property. Removing moss, algae, dirt and staining helps reveal the original appearance of the roof tiles, giving the whole property a cleaner better maintained look.

Helps Reduce the Risk of Costly Repairs
