Welcome to Our Roof Moss Guide

Are you fed up with excessive moss growth on your roof?

Did you know that it can cause the following? -

  • Gutter blockages that can cause damp to penetrate into walls
  • Rainwater downpipe blockages that can be costly to unblock
  • Marks and stains on patios and conservatory roof panels
  • The roots can cause any existing hairline cracks in roof tiles to expand

You will probably already know how unsightly the green menace can look, so what is the best method to remove and then prevent the roof moss?

What Type of Roof Does Your Home Currently Have?

There are several ways to remove and prevent roof moss, which one is right for your property will depend on the roof covering or tiles you currently have.

If you are seriously considering having a roof moss removal project done then please check out the resources that are linked to the right of this page, where you will find hints and tips that are specific to your roofing needs.

Prevent Moss Growth

It is important to first remove the moss from the roof before attempting any preventative treatment - otherwise dead moss will gradually wash down into the gutter, downspouts and possibly cause expensive blockages in drains/soakaways. Also to the right of this page you will find information on the various moss killer chemicals and preventative techniques/products used today.
