We softwash your roof.
We gently scrape all tiles using job specific tools designed tofit the exact contours of the tile. This is to remove as much of the organic growth as possible before we apply a professional, high strength cleaner and surface biocide. This cleans the roof tiles gently and prevents re-growth for up to 5 years!
All work is carried out from our own scaffold towers.
Prices start from just £60 After pictures always provided, so that you can see we have carried out a thorough job.
& Guilds accredited
Single repair only £50. Any further repairs at discounted cost.
We use replacement parts, not bodged with silicone sealant.
