Moss Removal & Cleaning In Manningtree
Damp air off the Stour estuary gives moss an easy life on Manningtree roofs. It settles in the gaps between old clay tiles and spreads across shaded concrete tiles in Lawford and Mistley. Moss holds water against the roof surface and clogs gutters, so clearing it is more than a cosmetic job.
Options for your roof
We install and repair across all major options to suit your home and budget.
Hand moss removal
Moss scraped off by hand without eroding the tile surface.
Biocide treatment
A deep-acting biocide kills spores and slows regrowth.
Gutter clear-out
Gutters and downpipes cleared of moss and debris.
Moss on CO11 roofs
On the older houses in the town, moss tends to gather where clay tiles overlap and in the shade of chimneys. On newer homes around Lawford, it fills the grooves of concrete interlocking tiles, particularly on north-facing slopes. We remove it by hand, scraping and brushing carefully so as not to crack or dislodge tiles. We don't use pressure washers, which can force water under tiles, damage old clay surfaces and wash out mortar. Once the moss is off, we apply a biocide to kill remaining spores and slow regrowth. Gutters and downpipes are cleared at the end, since moss debris ends up there.
