Moss Removal & Cleaning In Southminster
Damp air off the marshes around Southminster keeps roofs moist for long spells, and moss takes full advantage. It's especially common on the concrete tiles of post-war homes and bungalows. Left to build up, moss traps water, lifts tile edges and then washes into the gutters, which is a real problem when heavy rain arrives on a windy day.
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 Southminster roofs
Bungalows have shallow, broad roofs that moss can cover quickly, and the shaded side of houses near the old centre often turns green first. Clay tile roofs on older cottages gather moss along the edges of each tile. We remove it by hand, scraping and brushing it off rather than pressure washing, which can crack tiles and drive water under them. After clearing, we apply a biocide treatment that kills remaining growth and slows it returning. Then we clean out the gutters and check downpipes so the removed moss doesn't cause blockages. If we notice loose ridges or tiles, we'll tell you.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01245 520306 or book online.

Moss removal is a good time to check the roof generally, which matters in an exposed spot where wind loosens ridges and verges. Any repairs are listed separately in a free written quote, so you choose what to go ahead with. On older roofs in the conservation area, we use gentle methods throughout.
