Moss Removal & Cleaning In Bishop's Stortford
Bishop's Stortford sits on the River Stort, and both its older streets and newer estates have roofs shaded by trees or facing north. Those slopes stay damp, and moss settles in. On clay tiles, slate and concrete alike, thick moss holds moisture and fills gutters, so removing it carefully is worthwhile.
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.

Moss removal around Bishop's Stortford
We clear moss on all kinds of roofs here, from clay tiles on older buildings near Bridge Street to concrete tiles on post-war homes and newer estates such as St Michael's Mead. Moss acts like a sponge: it keeps tiles wet, and in a frost that water can expand and damage the tile surface or lift edges. It also washes into gutters and blocks outlets. We take it off by hand with roof scrapers and brushes, following the tile courses. Pressure washing isn't used, as it can damage tiles and push water underneath. We finish with a biocide treatment and clear the gutters.
Every job starts with a free survey and a written quote. Call 01279 294082 or book online.
