“We recently had our kitchen extension roof repaired by Runnymede Roofing Ltd and couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the first point of contact, the team were responsive and a pleasure to deal with — any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly. The work itself was carried out efficiently and to a high standard, and we felt the pricing was very reasonable for the quality of service received. It’s rare to find a company that ticks all the boxes, but Runnymede Roofing managed it effortlessly. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them. Peter Scarf”

Roof moss cleaning and prevention in Islington

Roof moss cleaning in Islington typically involves brushing or scraping away moss and applying a biocidal wash to kill spores and stop regrowth.

This gentle approach avoids the risk of damaging roof tiles while restoring the roof’s surface.

Keeping your tarmac free from moss not only enhances kerb appeal but also reduces the chance of slipping in wet conditions.
