Roof cleaning that protects your roof — not just its looks.
Moss isn't only unsightly. It holds moisture against the tiles, washes into the gutters and breaks down the surface over time. Clean it off properly and your roof lasts longer.
B & S Roof Repairs cleans concrete, clay and slate roofs across Gloucestershire. We remove moss and growth by hand and with controlled soft-wash methods, then apply a biocide treatment that keeps regrowth at bay long after we leave.
We never blast a tiled roof with a high-pressure lance — that strips the protective surface off concrete tiles and forces water under them. The right method cleans the roof without shortening its life.
Roof cleaning pairs naturally with gutter clearance, because the dislodged moss has to be cleared from the gutters afterwards — we handle both as one tidy job.

What moss actually does to your roof.
A mossy roof isn't just a cosmetic issue — it's a maintenance problem that gets worse with every wet season.
Trapped moisture
Moss acts like a sponge, holding water against the tiles. In frost that water expands and slowly breaks down the tile surface.
Blocked gutters
Moss and granules wash off the roof and clog the gutters, causing overflows that soak the walls and roofline below.
Shortened roof life
Left for years, heavy growth degrades the protective surface of concrete tiles and accelerates the need for repairs or replacement.
A clear, methodical system — built around your time and your property.
Inspection
We assess the roof on site or from your photos — checking the cause, not just the symptom — and quote in writing.

The benefits you'll actually notice — and the ones that pay for themselves.
Protects your tiles
Removing moss stops moisture being held against the tiles, helping them last longer.
Clear gutters too
We clear the dislodged moss from your gutters so they flow freely afterwards.
Safe soft-wash method
No high-pressure blasting that strips tile surfaces — just the correct, gentle approach.
Lasting results
A biocide treatment keeps regrowth slow long after the clean is done.
Better kerb appeal
A clean roof transforms the look of the whole house from the street.
Spot problems early
Up on the roof, we'll flag any slipped tiles or defects before they become leaks.
How we clean a roof safely.
The method matters more than the muscle. Here's how we get a roof clean without harming it.
Service Areas
Moss removal
We remove the bulk of the moss by hand and with scrapers and soft brushes, working safely from access equipment. This lifts the heavy growth without driving water under the tiles the way a pressure washer does.
Soft-wash biocide treatment
After clearing the moss we apply a professional biocide that kills the remaining algae, lichen and spores at the root. It keeps working for months, dramatically slowing regrowth compared with a clean alone.
Why not high pressure
High-pressure washing strips the protective coating off concrete tiles, etches the surface and forces water beneath the laps. It can do real, lasting damage. We use controlled, low-pressure soft-wash methods that clean without harm.
Gutter clearance
Cleaning a roof inevitably dislodges moss into the gutters, so we finish by clearing them and flushing the downpipes — leaving the whole system clean and free-flowing.
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the level of growth and access. Every job is quoted in writing after a free assessment — send a photo and your postcode.
