“I asked John to help do some porch roof repairs due to a leak when in heavy rain. Hard working group of lads, John was making sure that they were doing things to a good standard and everything was aligned correctly, they were very neat, tidy and polite. I'm hoping the work has sorted the leak, but it only occurred in the extreme weather we had, so time will tell. However it has all be refreshed with new lead etc so hoping it is good. Would use again.”

Moss removal in Gloucestershire

Moisture damage
Blocked gutters

Hiring a specialist for moss removal in Gloucestershire helps protect your property and restore its appearance.

The right tradesperson will be able to safely remove moss from your roof tiles or tarmac. They can often use professional-grade treatments that prevent it from returning.

Roof moss cleaning and prevention in Gloucestershire

Roof moss cleaning in Gloucestershire 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.

Regular moss removal can extend the lifespan of your roof and prevent water damage caused by trapped moisture.

For driveways and tarmac, specialists use different techniques to safely clean the surface and improve traction.

For example:

Targeted moss killers
Low-pressure washing

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