Roof and Gutter cleaning

Moss removal, roof & gutter cleaning

Avon Home Improvements offer roof and gutter cleaning services including roof moss removal and roof coating. Moss is a common problem on roofs. Not only does it look unsightly, moss absorbs water and as it grows it can start to displace the tiles or slates on your roof leading to leaks which can eventually cause significant damage to your property. Our skilled roofers carefully remove the moss and treat your roof to prevent the moss from growing back again straight away. Re-treating the roof every three years or so may be required to prevent the moss from returning. It’s also important to keep your gutters clear of debris and leaves especially if there are trees in close proximity to your house. We also offer gutter and fascia cleaning services to give them that brand new look. Call 01202 069923 today for a free no-obligation quote. 

  • Should moss be removed from roofs?

    If moss growth is significant, it will eventually cause problems for your roof and should be removed. However, this should be done by a professional company such as Avon Home Improvements so as not to cause damage to your roof.

  • How long will moss treatments work?

    The fungicidal treatment will only work for a short time - generally two to 3 years and will wear off. Your roof will require further treatments in the future.

  • Will painting my roof prevent moss growth or leaks?

    No. Roof tiles are already waterproof and will only leak if broken. Only a fungicidal treatment will work for moss growth, but only for a few years. The main reason for roofing coating or painting is cosmetic.
